The
Development of Family Resilience: Exploratory Investigation
of a Resilience Program for Families Impacted by Chemical
Dependency. Chris Lum. May 2008.
"The main finding of the process evaluation is that CF! can
be implemented with quality and fidelity in community agencies.
The outcome evaluation on 62 families suggests positive medium
size (Cohen's d = .52 to .70) improvements in four of the
five family outcomes (cohesion, communication, family strengths
and resilience and organization) measured and one small positive
reduction in family conflict (d = .15). Likewise, four of
the five parenting outcomes (parent involvement, supervision,
efficacy, and positive parenting style) improved with medium
effect size (d = .50 to .60), but parenting skills only had
a small positive improvement (d = .18). These are excellent
outcomes equivalent to other family skills training programs
and in some cases larger. "
