Abstract(s)

This symposium explores the links between "family time" theory, research questions, and research methodologies. Methodologies examining shared family time can provide a unique opportunity to (a) examine the bidirectional influences of social interactions among family members during family rituals, routines, and recreation, as well as, (b) identify the family activity contexts in which healthy human and family development occurs. Sessions include: Conceptualizing Shared Family Time using the Creation of Family Experience Framework; Measuring Family Leisure Involvement and Satisfaction; Physiological Measures: Understanding Individuals within the Context of Family Relations; Ecological Momentary Assessment Methods in Family Experience Research: Validating Sociometric Badges.
