Zusammenfassung:	Confirmatory factor analysis and regression analyses of the BIS did not appear to support the model offered by its developers, namely, several specified family attributes contributing respectively to 2 global factors of Family Competence and Family Style. Regression analysis indicated that only 3 of the 12 items predicted raters' assessments of Global Family Health, and one of 7 items predicted Global Family Style. Individuals interested in the family dynamic 'centripetal/centrifugal' might best think of that as a unitary entity and rate it accordingly. (Original abstract)
