| Sumario: | Doherty (1984) stated that family and marriage researches cannot be defined as a complete separate discipline. However, he emphasized that researchers on the subject field should be modest on the issues they know well, they should be discreet about the family secrets and they should avoid making misguiding interpretations on the issues they don't know. There are subjective opinions in researches about marriage and family issues. However, these should be based on a scientific foundation. This type of researches should provide people with well grounded information about marriage and family (Miller, 1996). At this point, there are some features that family counselors should have, and these are; a- A family counselor should be able to evaluate events from a neutral perspective. b- A family counselor should handle events in an empiric way. c- A family counselor should be able to generate a solution, not deadlocks. d- A family counselor should not define a right or wrong side among the parties. e- A family counselor should be able to be good listener. f- A family counselor should be able to be a good observer. g- A family counselor should have a very good synthesis ability. h- A family counselor should be very discreet about the issues the counselees share with them. i- A family counselor should have a good speculation competence about the issues the counselees share with them. j- The methods that family counselors use must be clear, comprehensible and logical. In conclusion, marriage and family researches are the researches that are conducted in order to understand family and marriages, produce interpretations and solutions about the comprehended issues |
