Does Screening of Children in Foster Care Influence Decisions in Social-Work Practice
Purpose: This study aims to answer the question: Does the screening of well-being and learning skills using validated screening tools influence social workers’ decisions on whether to provide an intervention? Method: We answer it using logistic regression on data from a Danish intervention study of children in family foster care, Me and My Foster Family, collected via the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) and the Attentive to Learnin…
Technically measured compositional physical work demands and prospective register-based sickness absence (Podesa): A study protocol
PODESA provides a unique possibility of unravelling which combinations of physical work demands are associated with prospective sickness absence. PODESA employs technically measured information on physical work demands (taking into account the compositionality of physical work demand data) and prospective sickness absence data. The findings from PODESA can be used to develop strengthened preventive interventions for sickness absence. Results are …
The Effect of Volunteer Work on Employability: A Study with Danish Survey and Administrative Register Data
In addition to benefiting others, volunteer work is argued to supply volunteers themselves with skills, reputation, and social connections that increase overall employability. We test this hypothesized causal link between volunteer work and employability with a high-quality 2012 Danish survey sample of 1,867 individuals of working age. The survey data are linked to administrative registers containing individual-level data on unemployment. A combi…
The impact of self-reported health and register-based prescription medicine purchases on re-employment chances: A prospective study
In this paper, we investigate the influence of self-reported health and register-based prescription medicine purchases on re-employment chances, and whether these health indicators measure similar aspects of health in this analysis. Data came from a 2006 Danish unemployment survey among a random sample of unemployed individuals enriched with register data (2006-2008, N =1806). The survey participants all received unemployment benefits from the we…
Depicted welfare-recipient stereotypes in Norway and Denmark: A Photo-Elicitation Study
Welfare recipients are continuously subjected to media debates and governmental campaigns drawing on images and symbols encouraging improved work ethic and individual responsibility. Only few studies, however, have analysed how welfare recipients as ‘othered’ citizens react to these often stereotypical symbols and images targeting them. In this study we have investigated how welfare recipients in Norway and Denmark, and caseworkers in Denmark, un…
