Because Bowen's multigenerational approach looks at families from a three-generational perspective, the therapist is mainly interested in past happenings and does not pay much attention to present issues.

True or False?

The above given statement is said to be false.

Explanation:

Bowen's multi generational approach is not interested in past happening alone. The multi-generational approach in fact tries to find out how the present problems or dysfunctions of specific family members are affected by the generational patterns.

This approach focuses on how the generations of families impact and affect the present behavior and conduct of the individual family members in the present times.

The approach takes into consideration facts related to the family rather than the emotions and thoughts of the families. Prior to this approach, the importance of family and its generations was not considered for the present condition of a family member.
