However, there is a dearth of research on factors related to scholarly productivity during social work PhD training. This retrospective, cross-sectional study explored correlates of scholarly productivity in a sample of early career PhD social work faculty members regarding publications during their PhD training (N = 58). We sent an electronic surv…
Class Peer Network and Heterogeneous Intervention Effects on Children's Social Information Processing Skills
Children's social information processing (SIP) skills notably affect their aggressive behaviour. Previous randomized trials have demonstrated the positive effects of the ‘Let's Be Friends’ (LBF) intervention in enhancing children's SIP skills and promoting prosocial behaviours. However, little attention has been paid to peer influence in the Chinese administrative class system. Taking LBF (Shaanxi) Trial 2 (LBF2) as an example, this study used a …

Governance Policy Evaluation in the United States during the Pandemic
Scientific evidence suggests that nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) effectively curb the spread of COVID-19 before a pharmaceutical solution. Implementing these interventions also significantly affects regular socioeconomic activities and practices of social, racial, and political justice. Local governments often face conflicting goals during policymaking. Striking a balance among competing goals during a global pandemic is a fine science of…

Propensity Score Analysis
Propensity score analysis is often used to address selection bias in program evaluation with observational data. However, a recent study suggested that propensity score matching may accomplish the opposite of its intended goal—increasing imbalance, inefficiency, model dependence, and bias. We assess common propensity score models and offer our responses to these criticisms. We used Monte Carlo methods to simulate two alternative settings of data …

Propensity Score Matching Strategies for Evaluating the Success of Child and Family Service Programs
This article presents propensity score matching as a method to implement randomized conditions to analyze service effects using nonexperimental data. Most social work research is challenged to implement randomized clinical trials, whereas administrative and survey data are often available and can provide valuable information about services received under naturalistic conditions. This article discusses the assumptions of this method and the analyt…
Research on Timing of Foster Care Outcomes
This article discusses the use of event history analysis, specifically the Cox proportional hazards model, in research on timing of foster care outcomes. It focuses on the inclusion of autocorrelated data in the model, a statistical problem that has received little attention in studies of the timing of exit from or reentry into foster care. This article describes the Cox model, the problem posed by use of the model with autocorrelated data, and p…
Temporary Migrants in Shanghai Households, 1984
In China, temporary migration is defined as a change in place of residence without a concomitant change in household registration; such mobility therefore encompasses a more heterogeneous set of movements than is usually subsumed under this heading in other nations. Because of China’s strict control of permanent migration to large cities, temporary migration has become an important strategy for adjusting to economic changes and to effecting famil…

Risk and protective factors across multiple microsystems associated with internalizing symptoms and aggressive behavior in rural adolescents
The current study examined risk and protective factors across microsystems that impact the development of internalizing symptoms and aggression over 4 years in a sample of culturally diverse, rural adolescents. We explored whether risk and protective factors across microsystems were associated with changes in rates of internalizing symptoms and aggressive behavior. Data came from the Rural Adaptation Project (RAP), a 5-year longitudinal panel stu…
The Effect of Marital Status on Home Ownership among Low-Income Households
This research examines whether married low-income renters are more likely to become home owners than comparable single, low-income renters. To do so, it employs data from the Community Advantage Panel Study and discrete-time survival analysis with propensity-score matching. Results suggest that married couples buy homes at higher rates, and buy them more quickly, than do their unmarried counterparts. Estimates in models that use propensity-score …
