 The Real Form (Form R) measures people's attitude about their family current environment, the Ideal Form (Form I) measures person's ideal family perception, and the Expectations Form (Form E) assess the family ability to withstand change.After approximately 20 minutes, the test is completed and ten scores are derived from the subscales to create an overall profile of the family environment.Based on these scores, families are then grouped into one of three family environment typologies based on their most salient characteristics.
