Sažetak
Twelve schizophrenic patients' families with parents having some mental disorders, as well as eighteen families in that it is not the case, were involved in the family therapy. The purpose of the research was to investigate to what extent the parents' mental health, as well as their evolutionary potentials, influence the quality of the interpersonal family relationships. By means of systemic - relational - psychodynamic interview two evaluations of the family interpersonal relationships quality were made: before the family therapy inclusion as well as after its "closure". Recorded information were quantified by means of the judgement scale and put in the computer program (t-test difference). The interpersonal relations quality of the first group is significantly lower before the family therapy. In this group the therapeutic interventions provoked statistically significant change towards more functional behaviors in three (11.53 %), and in the second group in nine (34.11 %) of twenty six variables. Thus, the evolutionary potentials of the second group are distinctively bigger. The experience as well as results address to the necessity of paying special attention to the schizophrenic patients' families with the parents having some mental disorders.
