In-house consultation to support professionals’ responses to child abuse and neglect: Determinants of professionals’ use and the association with guideline adherence     

《Child abuse & neglect》2017

This study examined the presence and strengths of determinants associated with consultation of an in-house expert on child abuse and neglect (CAN) by preventive child health care professionals who suspect CAN. This study also assessed the relationship between in-house CAN expert consultation and professionals’ performance of six recommended activities described in a national guideline on preventing CAN for preventive child health care professionals. A total of 154 professionals met the study’s inclusion criteria. They filled in a questionnaire that measured in-house consultation practices and twelve determinants associated with the professional, the in-house expert, and the organizational context. Bivariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed. Almost half of the participants (46.8%) reported to consult the in-house expert in (almost) all of their suspected CAN cases. Professionals who reported better recollection of consulting the in-house expert (i.e. not forgetting to consult the expert) (p = .001), who were more familiar with consultation (p = .002), who had more positive attitudes and beliefs about consultation (p = .011) and who reported being more susceptible to the behavior (p = .001) and expectations/opinions (p = .025) of colleagues regarding in-house expert consultation were more likely to consult the in-house expert. Furthermore, in-house expert consultation was positively associated with two of six key guideline activities: consulting the regional child protection service and monitoring whether support was provided to families. The implications of these results for improving professionals’ responses to CAN are discussed.  相似文献   

Do early care and education services improve language development for maltreated children? Evidence from a national child welfare sample     

《Child abuse & neglect》2015

Young children under 6 years old are over-represented in the U.S. child welfare system (CWS). Due to their exposure to early deprivation and trauma, they are also highly vulnerable to developmental problems, including language delays. High quality early care and education (ECE) programs (e.g. preschool, Head Start) can improve children's development and so policymakers have begun calling for increased enrollment of CWS-supervised children in these programs. However, it is not a given that ECE will benefit all children who experience maltreatment. Some types of maltreatment may result in trauma-related learning and behavior challenges or developmental deficits that cause children to respond to ECE settings differently. The current study uses data from a nationally representative survey of children in the U.S. child welfare system, the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being II, to assess whether young CWS-supervised children (N = 1,652) who were enrolled in ECE had better language development outcomes 18 months later than those not enrolled in ECE. We also explore whether the type of maltreatment that brought children to the CWS’ attention moderates the relationship between ECE and children's language development. After controlling for children's initial scores on the Preschool Language Scale (PLS-3), type(s) of maltreatment experienced, and child and caregiver demographics, we found that ECE participation predicted better PLS-3 scores at follow-up, with a positive interaction between ECE participation and supervisory neglect. ECE seems to be beneficial for CWS-involved children's early language development, especially for children referred to the CWS because they lack appropriate parent supervision at home.  相似文献   

Child behaviors as a moderator: Examining the relationship between foster parent supports,satisfaction, and intent to continue fostering     

《Child abuse & neglect》2015

Foster parents need access to supports and resources in order to be satisfied with their caregiving role and continue providing foster care services. However, they often experience multiple demands in their role as a substitute caregiver that could lead to stress. Child behaviors especially may be a significant factor when considering sources of strain and may be a potential risk factor for negative outcomes such as dissatisfaction or the decision to discontinue providing foster care. The purpose of this study was to examine whether child disruptive behaviors moderated or influenced the nature or strength of the relationship between foster parent supports and satisfaction as a caregiver as well as intent to continue fostering. The sample consisted of 155 licensed foster caregivers from across the United States. Child behaviors served as a significant moderator between some types of supports and satisfaction. Implications for future research, practice, and policy are discussed.  相似文献   

再论人的本质与人性——从《1844年经济学哲学手稿》说起     

杨建国 《五邑大学学报(社会科学版)》2011,13(1):46-49,93

仔细解读《1844年经济学哲学手稿》，可以发现，马克思认为人是实践和创造的动物，人的本质的实质内容是实践，社会性是其外部特征，而人性可归结为人全面的、发展的、合理的需要。要把保证自由个性与满足人的需要作为人的目的，把从事创造性实践活动和处理社会关系作为迭其目的的手段。  相似文献

The Artist Initiative at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art     

Robin Clark  Michelle Barger 《文物保护研究》2016,61(3):24-28

The Artist Initiative at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) is piloting models for increased collaboration between conservators and curators through joint work with artists. We seek a more integrated, holistic approach to the care and research of our collection. The project, funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, comprises five robust research engagements that serve the curatorial collecting departments of the museum (Photography, Painting and Sculpture, Media Art, and Architecture and Design). Three of the projects are monographic studies, examining the work of Ellsworth Kelly, Vija Celmins, and Julia Scher in depth, while two more are thematic, exploring modes of displaying digitally-driven design objects, and developing strategies for addressing the problem of color shift common to photographic prints made with experimental materials during the 1970s and 1980s. The Artist Initiative is also charged with developing hybrid working spaces to advance collaborative approaches to collections research at the museum's new downtown campus and at SFMOMA's new Collections Center in South San Francisco. These spaces include the Collections Workroom, a 56?sq?m (600?sq?ft) space that functions as a studio for visiting artists, a conservation laboratory, an interview suite, and a classroom at SFMOMA's downtown campus. At the Collections Center, a 121?sq?m (1300?sq?ft) Mock-Up Gallery has been built as a working model of one of the museum's new galleries. A functional exhibition space, the Mock-Up Gallery is also a venue for interviewing artists, prototyping exhibition formats, and meeting with students, scholars, museum staff, and community members. With the goal of contributing to critical discourses in contemporary art history, art conservation, and public engagement, each of the Artist Initiative projects includes a colloquium that will bring experts from multiple fields together with the featured artists. Thereafter we aim to share our findings widely through public programs and a range of publications, both digitally and in print.  相似文献   

关怀理论:教师专业成长中不可忽视的内容     

蒋茵 《台州学院学报》2006,28(4):66-69,73

诺丁斯的关怀理论是20世纪80年代中期提出,并随着90年代初兴起的“学会关心”这一国际教育思潮而备受关注。它为教师的专业成长提出了一种新的研究视角:彰显教师的非理性精神来挑战传统理性;以学习关怀为出发点而建构学校教育和教师成长的新内容;在关怀实践中提升教师专业成长的责任感与动力。  相似文献

科学与人文并重 和谐与发展双赢——对当代大学生人文素质缺失的反思     

李凤云  李琦 《苏州教育学院学报》2007,24(4):88-91

随着科学技术的快速发展,社会对人才既要求具有科技知识和技能,又要求有人文素养。然而,受市场经济负面效应的影响,现在许多大学生只重实用科技课程,轻人文社科知识;重物质利益,轻人文关怀。这种科技与人文两种文化的不平衡,导致了人与人、人与社会、人与自然之间的关系的不和谐。为此,高等院校应切实承担起培养和造就一代既懂科技,又富有人文素质的全面发展的合格人才。  相似文献
