Transactional Pattern
• As defined by Minuchin (1974), “family structure is the invisible set of functional demands that organizes the ways in which family members interact.
• A family is a system that operates through transactional patterns. Repeated transactions establish patterns of how, when, and with whom to relate, and these patterns underpin the system.”
• For example, a mother tells her child to pick up his socks and he obeys. This interaction defines who she is in relation to him and who he is in relation to her. Repeated interactions constitute a transactional pattern. (H. Charles Fishman, M. D,. 2011)

• Ecomap – shows the interactions outside the family environment
• Social Network Map – Capture family behavior in the context of it’s social network
