Family Environmental Scale

The Family Environmental Scale (FES; Moos & Moos, 1986) is a widely used measure that was developed to measure social and environmental characteristics of families. This measure has been used in thousands of studies to capture critical aspects of family functioning. In this study, we will be using the cohesion and conflict subscales of the FES, administered to both parents and adolescents. Internal consistency reliability estimates for the subscales range from 0.61 to 0.78. Conflict and cohesiveness subscales will be administered to measure family functioning.
