Meaning, "nerves" and the urban-Appalachian family.

In this article, the Franklian treatment methods of Network Intervention, Existential Reflection, and Social Skills Training are described as they can be used in family treatment with urban-Appalachian families suffering with a disruption in meaning awareness and the reactive problem of "nerves." The author also provides information about treatment results with 28 urban-Appalachian families suffering with "nerves," seen in Franklian treatment from 1982 through 1988.
