<DIV>I am doing research on family group conferencing for my PhD
dissertation. One of the claims made about family group conferencing is
that it empowers families. I am looking for ways to operationalize
empowerment as a research concept. Is anyone aware of any studies,
scales, surveys, questionnaires, etc. that has looked at this specific aspect
of family identity, morale, functioning, etc?</DIV>

<DIV>I am doing research on family group conferencing for my PhD
dissertation. One of the claims made about family group conferencing
is that it empowers families. I am looking for ways to operationalize
empowerment as a research concept. Is anyone aware of any studies,
scales, surveys, questionnaires, etc. that has looked at this specific
aspect of family identity, morale, functioning, etc?</DIV>
