This paper presents the results of a test of theoretical postulates proposed by Olson, Russell, and Sprenkle (1983) using a matched set of adolescents and their parents. One set of families (n - 40) consisted of adolescents who had been unsuccessful in public school and were attending alternative schools, while the other (n - 52) was a matched group of public school adolescents and their families. Results showed predicted differences in the direction of greater balanced functioning (i. e. optimal cohesion and adaptability) and more positive communication in the public school families. Public school families also perceived greater congruence between perceived and ideal family functioning. Congruence and differences between adolescent and parent perceptions, the importance of positive communication for optimal functioning, and implications for family treatment are discussed.
