Abstract
Family Relationship History Graph: FRHG (Wakashima et al., 2010) is a measure to assess the transition process of family relationship with the current narratives. The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of the FRHG. We also aimed to investigate general developmental process of family relationship with the FRHG. The results showed concurrent validity for FRHG as a measure of cumulative family relationship was evident and the FRHG scores had moderate temporal stability after an interval of 1 month. In contrast, the FRHG scores were not temporally stable after 4-month interval. As for family transition process, the results indicate that developmental change of family triangle in adolescence differed by child gender.
