Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) - ✔✔is designed to assess the severity of relationship problems in both
married couples and unmarried couples living together. The assessment has 32 items that assess couple
satisfaction, the degree to which each agrees with the other, the degree to which the couple feels
united, and expressions of affection.
Emotional Needs Questionnaire - ✔✔The first part has a total of 10 questions that correspond to the top
ten emotional needs most individuals experience/have in their lives. The questionnaire is filled out
separately by each partner, with "part A" asking the individual to rate on a scale of 1 to 6 representing
the degree to which that particular need is a part of their life, and "part B" where the individual rates on
a scale of 1 to 6 the degree to which their partner is fulfilling the corresponding need.
The second part of the questionnaire lists the 10 basic emotional needs any given individual may have
along with a few blank spaces to fill in any need not listed. Each partner is then asked to list their top
five needs in order from 1 to 5, with 1 being the most important, 2 the second most important, and so
on.
The completed questionnaire is then reviewed by each partner and the therapist alike and serves a focal
point for subsequent discussion in session.
Family Assessment Device (FAD) - ✔✔is based on the McMaster Model of Family Functioning (MMFF),
so it measures the same 6 dimensions (affective involvement, affective responsiveness, behavioral
control, communication, problem solving, and roles) in addition to a 7th scale that measures general
family functioning.
