A Classification of the Field of Family Therapy: A Review of Prior Attempts and a New Paradigmatic Model.
Levant, Ronald F.
American Journal of Family Therapy, v8 n1 p3-16 Spr 1980
Reviews early attempts to classify the field of family therapy, including Haley's caricatures, the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry's classification, and others. The new paradigmatic model proposes a classification of the field of family therapy in terms of three therapeutic paradigms: the historical, the structure/process, and the experiential. (Author/BEF)
