Family Strength and Income in Households with Children

Abstract

Using data from a 1999 national sample of families, the authors report their findings on how the presence of family strengths and the likelihood of achieving positive family outcomes vary across income groups. Data from a Family Strength Index is reviewed and indicates that income differences primarily discriminate on the economic assets of families but not on the relational and social support assets of families. A discussion of the implications of the findings for practice and future research is also included.
