| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to construct and validate the Family Psychological Boundaries (H.FBQ) questionnaire based on the Holy Quran. The boundaries of the family were extracted and presented from the verses of the Holy Quran and the interpretive narrations below them by the method of religious and psychological Ijtihad. The final pattern includes 5 first-order boundaries, 15 second-order boundaries, and 64 third-order boundaries. A questionnaire was designed based on the extracted boundaries. The content validity of the items was confirmed by experts based on CVI and CVR and the reliability of the questionnaire was calculated by using Cronbach's alpha. The total reliability of the questionnaire was 0.975, general boundaries 0.884, marital boundaries 0.92, parental boundaries 0.925, siblings boundaries 0.789 and outer boundaries 0.761. The questionnaire was administered to a sample of 600 families in Qom. The results of factor analysis showed confirmation of construct validity for five underlying factors (boundaries) and 164 items for measuring them. The results of comparing the boundaries between normal families and families at risk of divorce confirm the validity, construct and resolution of the questionnaire between normal and abnormal families. Examination of psychometric properties of the Family Boundaries Questionnaire showed that the 164-item questionnaire has the desired validity and reliability. |
