Modernizing Training in Psychotherapy Competencies With Adaptive Learning Systems
One of the most challenging aspects of training is how to competently deliver evidence-based practices. ITS has the potential to streamline and scale such training
Cultural Strengths of Latino-American Subgroups
Few studies have examined subgroup differences regarding the role of collective cultural strengths among Latinos, the largest minority population in the United States today. Based on cultural and social psychologists' emphasis on their importance to minorities, this study explored the association of three cultural factors with self-reported mental and physical health for three Latino subgroups identified in the National Latino and Asian American …
Racial/Ethnic Identity and Subjective Physical and Mental Health of Latino Americans
Social Identity Theory indicates that ethnic identity could benefit minority members in a society because of its promotion of a sense of belonging, or of its buffering of the damage of discrimination. Despite growing investigation about Latinos’ overall health, few studies have simultaneously examined the influence of multiple cultural strength factors, especially racial/ethnic identity, social support, and religious attendance, on these outcomes…

Institutional predictors of developmental outcomes among racially diverse foster care alumni
Child welfare practitioners are confronted with the responsibility of relying on best practice to ensure children in foster care transition successfully into adulthood after leaving the foster care system. Yet, despite recent reforms and efforts to address their needs, research clearly shows that foster care alumni are still more likely to experience negative developmental outcomes compared to adults in the general population. The purpose of this…
Violence in Context
This book offers a critical appraisal of research and theory focused on violence in youth, families, and communities. Chapters examine the ways in which violence is defined and understood; how risk and protective factors promote and inhibit violence in families and in communities; and how violence and related behaviors differ by gender, race, and ethnicity. Work reviewed throughout the book examines overlapping forms of violence, the impact of vi…
Learning How to Dance with the Public Child Welfare System
The purpose of this article is to understand how Mexican parents' perceive their voices (their concerns, dissatisfaction, and opinions) as integrated in child welfare cases and what factors hinder or promote this process. The focus is on parents' interactions with their child welfare worker during routine monthly home visits. Nineteen parents, with a history of immigration, participated in in-depth interviews for this qualitative study. Grounded …
Negotiating cultural values and expectations within the public child welfare system
This paper examines, from the perspective of parents and child welfare workers, how cultural values and expectations are integrated and negotiated in public child welfare cases. The study focuses on the experiences and interactions of Mexican families with the public child welfare system in Southern California. Grounded theory is used to complete the content analysis. Findings indicate that workers' efforts to provide culturally congruent service…
Examining the Premises Supporting the Empirically Supported Intervention Approach to Social Work Practice
Federal, state, and local policymakers and funders have increasingly organized human service delivery functions around the selection and implementation of empirically supported interventions (ESIs), under the expectation that service delivery through such intervention frameworks results in improvements in cost-effectiveness and system performance. This article examines the validity of four premises undergirding the ESI approach: ESIs are effectiv…
The role of child welfare managers in promoting agency performance through experimentation
Community Violence in Context
Although some community violence research has examined the context of community violence, including the social, economic, and structural organization of neighborhoods, more needs to be learned about family, school, and community-level factors that may promote and lessen the incidence and prevalence of community violence. In addition, further research is needed on various social, environmental, and contextual factors hypothesized to protect youth …
Evidence-Based Practice in Mental Health Care to Ethnic Minority Communities
Evidence-based practice (EBP) has contributed substantially to the advancement of knowledge in the treatment and prevention of adult mental health disorders. A fundamental assumption, based on documented evidence of effectiveness with certain populations, is that EBP is equally effective and applicable to all populations. However, small sample sizes of ethnic minority populations in randomized clinical trials prevent strong and clear conclusions …
The Effects of Exposure to Community Violence upon Latina Mothers and Preschool Children
Community violence is a stressor experienced by children and their parents. This exploratory study examines the psychological and behavioral effects of exposure to community violence on a sample of 31 Latina mothers and their children enrolled in a Head Start program. Based on maternal reports, the mother-child dyads have substantial exposure to community violence. Also, mothers exposed to community violence manifest significant levels of distres…
