Abstract
Despite burgeoning research about family distancing, researchers have yet to operationalize any family distancing construct. This paper describes the development and validation of a new measure operationalizing three components of family member marginalization (i.e., difference, disapproval, and exclusion). We evaluated the Family Member Marginalization Measure (FM3) using data from college students (Study 1; N = 191) and self-identified marginalized family members (Study 2; N = 285). Confirmatory factor analyses verified the three dimensions of perceived family member marginalization and the 39-item FM3 proved both reliable and valid. Potential applications of the scale and avenues for future research are discussed.
