This study tests the impact of the consumer's perception of being criticized by the family (consumer perceived criticism) on the consumer's clinical functioning. It likewise, concurrently tests the impact that other family factors have on perceived criticism. The sample was ninety-three consumer-family dyads. Results showed that none of the family factors directly contributed to level of perceived criticism, but more consumer perceived criticism was significantly related to higher levels of psychiatric symptoms. The findings suggest that an important component of treatment for symptom stabilization for African American consumers involves perceptions of the family being critical toward the consumer. The finding confirms for a sample of poor outpatient African American consumers what was found in previous research with African Americans. Results are in marked contrast to what impacted consumer psychosocial functioning in the companion study, suggesting that clinical and psychosocial functioning domains are distinct, particularly for African American consumers. This should be reflected in the interventions that are developed for African American consumers and their families.
