subsystem boundaries, including“love, physical intimacy,
caregiving, emotional support”of mother’s closeness-
caregiving subscale,“separation anxiety, Possessiveness/
jealously” of mother’s intrusiveness subscale,

family boundary types.
4.In parental subsystem, the variables of “ mother’s openness
of communication”、“father’s intrusiveness”and
“mother’s intrusiveness” could significant predict
