The Actor-Partner Interdependence Effects of Harsh Parenting and Co-Parenting on Parental Engagement
This study examines the effects of parents’ harsh parenting and co-parenting on parental engagement. 4,049 low-income married couples participating in the Supporting Healthy Marriage (SHM) evaluation study were analyzed using the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model, which identifies how one parent’s harsh parenting and co-parenting behaviors influence their own parental engagement (actor-effect) and how their partner’s behaviors influence the par…
Synergistic benefits of inclusive leadership to foster child welfare workers’ job self-efficacy
Actor and Partner Effects of Interparental Relationship and Co-Parenting on Parenting Stress Among Fathers and Mothers
Despite increasing father involvement in rearing their children, research on the determinants of parenting stress has focused on mothers, ignoring the mutual influence between the two parents—fathers and mothers. Using the actor–partner interdependence model, we examined fathers’ and mothers’ reciprocal influences on parenting stress, with a focus on interparental relationship and co-parenting. Data from 174 couple dyads from the Dads Matter-HV© …
Why do child welfare supervisors leave their jobs
Measurement Invariance of the Secondary Traumatic Stress Scale
Purpose: This study examined the measurement invariance of the Secondary Traumatic Stress Scale (STSS) across racial and gender groups among public child welfare workers. Method: Survey data from 2,004 participants were analyzed using a series of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to examine the measurement invariance of a 17-item scale assessing intrusion, avoidance, and arousal symptoms of secondary traumatic stress (STS). Results: Th…
Evaluating conflict in collaborative environmental governance
The formal engagement of diverse stakeholder groups in environmental policy design and implementation is increasingly common. While engaging diverse stakeholders in common fora can help address complex environmental dilemmas, insofar as different stakeholders have varying perspectives and resources to contribute, this same variance can lead to intractable conflicts. While policy scholars have developed various conceptual approaches to understandi…
Informational justice, job autonomy, and child welfare workers’ intention to stay
The interaction of race/ethnicity and school-connectedness in presenting internalizing and externalizing behaviors among adolescents
Inclusive Leadership to Address Discrimination and Improve Retention in Child Welfare
Inclusive leadership has been discussed as an effective approach to workforce retention and workplace racial discrimination by satisfying the demand for belongingness and uniqueness. However, scant research has investigated the relationship between inclusive leadership and retention in child welfare. Using survey data collected from child welfare workers (n = 2469) across three public child welfare agencies, the current study examined the direct …
Transformational Leadership, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Burnout of Child Welfare Workers
This study examines the moderating effects of distant leader's practice of transformational leadership on the relationship between secondary traumatic stress (STS) and burnout among child welfare workers. Caseworkers and supervisors in a Midwest U.S. state (N = 210) rated their regional director's use of transformational leadership skills using a survey. Given the nature of the clustered data, multilevel modeling was employed to examine the main …
Social workers’ voluntary political participation
With rapidly changing and complex social problems, social workers’ political participation has received increasing attention in promoting social justice and human rights. However, limited studies have examined significant factors that motivate social workers’ voluntary political participation in South Korea. Furthermore, little is known about how significant factors differ by the different types of voluntary political participation. Drawing on th…
Parent–Worker Relationships in Home Visiting
Despite home visiting’s established legacy, the potential influence of intersecting parental characteristics on parent–worker relationships is less understood. This study examines the main and interaction effects of parents’ demographic characteristics on positive relationships with workers in home visiting and compares whether and how these effects differ between fathers and mothers. This study analyzed 130 mothers and 180 fathers who participat…
Organizational justice and secondary traumatic stress among child welfare workers
Findings suggest that the different types of organizational justice have different functions in reducing child welfare workers' STS. This study can contribute to developing justice-oriented and trauma-informed organizations that prevent child welfare workers' STS and reduce its negative effects on themselves, organizations, and children in the child welfare system.

Sinking or swimming
Recently, there have been reports of children without placement (CWOP) in foster care, often resulting in youth sleeping in hotels or child protective service offices. This study explored perspectives of the current crisis among child welfare practitioners who managed CWOP cases. We conducted interviews with 11 child welfare practitioners who had graduated from two universities in a Southern state. Themes aligned with the trauma-informed framewor…
Effects of school environment on depression among Black and White adolescents
While the school environment is critical for adolescents' psychological development, how the school environment influences depression among different racial groups has not been fully explored. This study aims to identify the effects of the school environment (school connectedness, school climates, trouble with peers and teachers) on depressive symptoms among Black and White adolescents. It also compares how the effects of school environments diff…
Critical Synthesis Toward Transformative Collaboration
Social workers are required to become effective boundary spanners to address complex social problems with community-based and cross-system collaboration. However, substantial tensions exist in the literature about how to build successful collaboration, stemming from the massive use of the two competing paradigms: functionalist and critical paradigms. Using a dialectical analysis, this article attempted to uncover and synthesize paradoxical unders…
Racial Matching in Foster Care Placements and Subsequent Placement Stability
A Multiple-Path Model of Workforce Development for Improving the Fidelity of Family Team Conference in the Child Welfare System
Family Team Conference (FTC) has been suggested as a promising practice model to improve child welfare outcomes. However, there is little understanding of developing an effective workforce to ensure FTC fidelity. Using data involving 891 caseworkers who implemented FTC in a Midwestern state, path analysis showed that both effective training and supervision that parallels the same principles of FTC are necessary conditions to enhance FTC fidelity …

Linking Diversity of Collaborative Policymaking Venues With Procedural Justice Perceptions
Diversity has long been recognized as a critical component of collaborative governance. Among many rationales, the representation of diverse perspectives and participants in collaborative governance arrangements is expected to facilitate holistic understandings of complex public policy and management issues while promoting principles of democracy and inclusion. Such outcomes, however, are typically only achievable if the process of collaboration …

Comprehensive assessment of youth violence in five Caribbean countries
Differences in gender and age have been established in the context of crime, violence, and prevalence of risk and protective factors. These studies are often notable only in the Western Hemisphere. Despite growth in crime and violence in the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), relatively little understanding of violence in CARICOM member states exists. In light of these concerns, the major purposes of this study include: (1) comprehensively assessing …
