Description: Measure the strength of the child-rearing alliance between parents The PAM assesses the parenting aspects of a couple’s relationship and provides you with each parent’s perception of the strength of their parenting alliance—how cooperative, communicative, and mutually respectful they are with regard to caring for their children. Appropriate for a variety of parenting partners (married, divorced, unmarried, and more). Useful as a screening and diagnostic instrument for family counseling, joint custody evaluations, identification of dysfunctional parenting skills, and assessing the impact of intervention. The PAM contains 20 items that are written at a 3rd-grade reading level. Standardized on 1,224 parents of children from the general population and a clinical sample of 272 parents of children diagnosed with ADHD, CD, ODD, or other problems. Internal consistency of .97; test-retest reliability has been measured at .80.
