Interactional styles of parents following the birth of a high-risk infant.
Using the concept of family management style (FMS) proposed by Knafl & Deatrick (1990), this article illustrates three configurations of defining and managing styles used by dyads in response to the birth of a high-risk infant. The analysis includes a discussion of the applicability of the framework to an acute illness situation.
