Description
Summary:We contend that the field of family therapy is undergoing a notable shift from second‐ to third‐order thinking. We offer theoretical support and examples to demonstrate how third‐order thinking provides a framework for integrating heightened sociocultural attunement into family therapy practice. We discuss the importance of third‐order thinking relative to being prepared to invite families into third‐order change. Finally, we offer a case example to show specific guidelines for third‐order practice. Afirmamos que el ámbito de la terapia familiar está sufriendo un cambio notable porque está pasando del pensamiento de segundo orden al pensamiento de tercer orden. Ofrecemos respaldo teórico y ejemplos para demostrar cómo el pensamiento de tercer oden ofrece un marco para integrar una mayor sensibilización sociocultural en la práctica de la terapia familiar. Debatimos la importancia del pensamiento de tercer orden relativa a estar preparados para invitar a las familias al cambio hacia el tercer orden. Finalmente, ofrecemos el ejemplo de un caso para mostrar pautas específicas sobre la práctica del tercer orden. 我们认为家庭心理治疗这一领域正在经历一个从第二种到第三种思考的显著转折。我们提出理论支持和例子来证明第三种思考如何为将进一步社会文化调适整合入家庭心理治疗提供框架。我们还讨论了第三种思考相对于将家庭引入引入第三种改变的重要性。最后,我们提供了一个案例来表明第三种实践的特定指南.
