Ringkasan	Social functioning assessment evaluates how well a person performs the major social roles of everyday life — work or school, family and parenting, intimate and social relationships, and economic and community participation — and how satisfied they are with that performance. Building on the social-adjustment measurement tradition and instruments such as Weissman and Bothwell's Social Adjustment Scale, it gives social workers a structured, quantifiable account of psychosocial functioning that goes beyond symptoms to capture the person-in-environment outcomes at the heart of social work.	Social support assessment is the systematic appraisal of the people and resources a client can draw on, the kinds of support they provide, and how adequate that support feels relative to the client's needs. Drawing on the structural-functional theory of support and on validated instruments such as the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, it gives social workers a structured way to map who is in a client's network, what emotional, instrumental, informational, and appraisal support those ties offer, and where gaps leave the client vulnerable — information that is central to strengths-based intervention and care planning.
