Validation of the Adolescent Family Life Satisfaction Index: An Update

Abstract

This report replicates an earlier validation study of the Adolescent Family Life Satisfaction Index using a sample of 111 subjects ages 13 to 18 years. Reliability was supported for the over-all instrument and subscales. Principal components factoring yielded two factors representing satisfaction with the Parental and Sibling subsystems. Correlations with scores on another instrument indicated concurrent validity of the instrument.
