A Conceptual Model of the Functioning of Married Persons with Impaired Partners: Spouses of Alcoholic Patients.

Finney, John W.; And Others

Journal of Marriage and the Family, v45 n1 p23-34 Feb 1983

Presents a conceptual framework of potentially broad applicability in the study of spouses of persons suffering from impairments. The model integrates previous research in the alcoholism field and provides a more comprehensive account of spouse functioning than is afforded by focusing only on partner drinking behavior.
