About Brief Family Distress Scale

A brief family distress scale is developed by Jonathan A. Weiss; Yona Lunsky. Quickly measures the level of parent or family distress, using a single-item scale. The measure is intended to examine the experience of crisis from the perspective of the caregiver by placing the family’s current experiences on a continuum of distress ranging from low levels of distress to crisis. Researchers and clinicians often require a quick assessment instrument to gauge the magnitude of distress or crisis experience in families.

Memory Rehabilitation by Barbara A. Wilson

While excellent measures of stress and coping in families exist, we wanted to develop a measure that could quickly convey meaningful information about a family’s current crisis situation. The Brief Family Distress Scale (BFDS) was meant to be brief so that even families in severe distress could complete it. The response choices were derived from qualitative interviews with parents of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders or Intellectual Disabilities, and it has thus far been used exclusively with this population of families.

Responses on the single item scale are positively correlated with caregiver worry, distress, child problem behaviors, and negative life events, and negatively correlated with quality of life, family hardiness, and empowerment (Weiss & Lunsky, 2011).
