Identifying families with complex needs after an initial child abuse investigation: A comparison of demographics and needs related to domestic violence,mental health,and substance use     

《Child abuse & neglect》2017

Families with complex needs related to domestic violence, mental health, and substance use have some of the worst child protective services (CPS) outcomes. Although many of these families are identified during a CPS investigation and subsequently referred to home-based postinvestigation services (HBPS), many are re-reported to CPS, so it is important to understand the postinvestigation experiences of this vulnerable group. Therefore, this study compared families with and without complex needs to understand their uniquedemographics, needs, and postinvestigation outcomes.The sample consisted of 2008 caregivers who received HBPS following an initial CPS investigation. The Family Assessment Form (FAF) was used to measure family functioning in eight domains using a 1–5 scale with higher ratings representing worse functioning. Complex needs were indicated by a mean FAF score of 3 or higher for either domestic violence, mental health, or substance use. Using Pearson chi-square analyses and two-sample t-tests, comparisons were made between families with (n = 836) and without (n = 1172) complex needs. Half of caregivers with complex needs had a history of abuse, 25% had three to five needs, and nearly half had six to eight needs; 90% of caregivers without complex needs had zero to two needs. Furthermore, caregivers with complex needs had higher mean scores for concrete, educational, and clinical needs. These findings highlight the importance of recognizing variation among families referred to HBPS and accurate screening to ensure that families with complex needs are offered and receive services matched to their unique characteristics and needs.  相似文献   

Assessing the Sensitivity of Weighted Least Squares Model Fit Indexes to Local Dependence in Item Response Theory Models     

Anne Corinne Huggins-Manley  HyunSuk Han 《Structural equation modeling》2017,24(3):331-340

Given the relationships of item response theory (IRT) models to confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) models, IRT model misspecifications might be detectable through model fit indexes commonly used in categorical CFA. The purpose of this study is to investigate the sensitivity of weighted least squares with adjusted means and variance (WLSMV)-based root mean square error of approximation, comparative fit index, and Tucker–Lewis Index model fit indexes to IRT models that are misspecified due to local dependence (LD). It was found that WLSMV-based fit indexes have some functional relationships to parameter estimate bias in 2-parameter logistic models caused by violations of LD. Continued exploration into these functional relationships and development of LD-detection methods based on such relationships could hold much promise for providing IRT practitioners with global information on violations of local independence.  相似文献

Model order reduction using response-matching technique     

S. Mukherjee  Satakshi 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2005,342(5):503-519

A method for model order reduction is proposed using response-matching technique. The step and impulse inputs have been considered. All types of pole configurations in the original high-order and reduced low-order system are included in this paper like real, complex and repeated. The proposed method is comparable in quality with similar existing methods and is capable of generating a reduced-order model with a desired pole pattern.  相似文献

A multicultural study of biometric privacy concerns in a fire ground accountability crisis response system     

《International Journal of Information Management》2016,36(5):735-747

Biometric technology is rapidly gaining popularity as an access control mechanism in the workplace. In some instances, systems relying on biometric technology for access control have not been well received by employees. One potential reason for resistance may be perceived privacy issues associated with organizational collection and use of biometric data. This research draws on previous organizational information handling and procedural fairness literature to frame and examine these underlying privacy issues. Perceived accountability, perceived vulnerability, and distrust were distilled from the previous literature as the primary dimensions of employee privacy concerns related to biometric technology. This study assesses the effects of these privacy concerns, how they vary based on the cultural influences of Anglos and Hispanics.Fire ground accountability is a critical management objective in the firefighting domain. In multi-unit or multi-agency crisis response scenarios, the on-scene incident commander tracks and accounts for each first responder. This research designed and deployed a new fire ground accountability system that tracked firefighters through finger pattern-based biometric logins to their assigned positions on the firefighting apparatus. An instrument measuring level of privacy concern on three underlying dimensions and demographic data was developed, validated and administered in a quasi-experimental field study. A pre-test–post-test survey methodology was employed to detect potential differences in privacy concerns as familiarity with the system increased. The study shows that Anglo and Hispanic subjects frame privacy issues differently associated with use of biometric technology in a fire ground accountability system. Finally, the study showed that some privacy concerns such as distrust and perceived vulnerability can be alleviated through system use with changes in post-use privacy concerns moderated by ethnic affiliation.  相似文献

先秦两汉时期地质灾害的时空分布及政府应对     

王元林  孟昭锋 《陕西师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2011,(3)

先秦两汉时期地质灾害种类多样,发生频繁。先秦发生地质灾害35次,西汉发生地质灾害59次,东汉发生地质灾害120次。这些灾害在年际分布上具有频发期与稀少期相间的周期性;在年内分布上存在着季节的不平衡性;在空间分布上呈现出区域的差异性。地质灾害的发生、发展有其自身复杂的规律性,并对人类社会发展产生长久性、复杂性、破坏性的严重影响,这使得统治者对其极为重视并积极实施救灾、减灾、防灾政策加以应对。探寻先秦两汉时期地质灾害的时空分布规律,总结历朝政府应对灾害的功过得失,对当今的防灾、减灾、救灾工作具有重要的现实意义。  相似文献
