Reliability and Predictive Validity of a Consensus-Based Risk Assessment Tool
This study examines the reliability and predictive validity of the risk assessment tool used in Ontario, Canada. For the reliability portion of the study, a stratified random sample of 132 cases receiving services was drawn from one of Ontario's largest children's aid societies. Predictive validity was tested on 1,118 cases that were selected and administratively followed for varying lengths of time. Internal consistency was poor to fair; inter-r…
The psychosocial functioning and family background of children experiencing significant placement instability in Australian out-of-home care
Children's adjustment to long-term foster care
Australian industrial relations policy and workers with family responsibilities
Australian workers have been experiencing growing levels of work-to-family conflict for decades now. In recognition of this problem, the Australian Commonwealth Government ratified ILO Convention 156 concerning workers with family responsibilities in 1990. Despite this, industrial relations reforms introduced under Australia's Industrial Relations Reform Act 1993 and extended under the Workplace Relations Act 1996 have actually increased the pres…
The systematic abrogation of practice standards in foster care
Over the past decade, a number of reviews of the alternative care system in South Australia identified various shortcomings in the system. An extensive restructure and outsourcing of alternative care services in the mid 1990s was reported to have done little to rectify the problems. Between 1998 and 2001 the statutory agency, Family and Youth Services, conducted three internal surveys to measure social workers' compliance with a range of practice…
Placement Stability and the Psychosocial Well-Being of Children in Foster Care
This article assesses one of the key assumptions underlying the philosophy of permanency planning—that placement instability adversely affects the psychosocial development of children in foster care. Method: The placement movements and psychosocial well-being of foster care were assessed over an 8-month period. Results: Most of the children who remained in care throughout the period could be assigned to one of three groups: 1 (stable throughout),…
Breakdown of foster care placement: Carer perspectives and system factors
A crisis in foster care is suggested by many of the national and international published reports. One seemingly intractable problem is placement instability, particularly for adolescents with behavioural problems. A qualitative study of foster carers who had ended a placement because of the young person's disruptive behaviour ( n = 19) was conducted to examine ways in which system shortcomings might be affecting placement outcomes. Data were coll…
The First Four Months in a New Foster Placement: Psychosocial Adjustment, Parental Contact and Placement Disruption
Intake and four-month follow-up measures were obtained for 235 children referred into a new foster care placement over a 12-month period in the Australian State of South Australia. Twenty-five percent of the sample returned home within 4-months, and for those who remained in care throughout, there had been modest gains in behavior, psychological adjustment and adjustment at school. On the other hand, there were considerable levels of placement di…
Obstacles to involving children and young people in foster care research
Despite increasing recognition of the importance of including the perspectives of children and young people in care in alternative care research, in practice this is not always a straightforward matter. This paper describes the recruitment of disruptive young people in care under the jurisdiction of the South Australian statutory authority to three studies on placement instability. Non‐response rates of 72.5% and 82% are reported. A large number …
Competitive tendering and out-of-home care for children: The South Australian experience
Children Entering Out-of-home Care in South Australia: Baseline Analyses for a 3-year Longitudinal Study
The Role of Parental Contact in Substitute Care
This paper examines the association between parental contact and the well-being and placement status of children in substitute care. Consistent with previous research (e.g., Fanshel, 1975), the frequency of at least one form of parental contact (telephone) was positively associated with reunification and negatively with the amount of time in care. However, there were no significant changes in the frequency of contact, or improvements in the quali…
Smoking and quitting: A Qualitative Study With Community-Living Psychiatric Clients
The Predictors of Unsuccessful Transition to Foster Care
The placement movements of 235 children entering foster care over a 12‐month period were followed up 4 months after referral into care. Baseline and follow‐up measures of the 170 children who were still in care at follow‐up were also compared. Results indicated that adolescents with mental health or behavioural problems were the least likely to achieve placement stability or to display improved psychological adjustment in care. In fact, unsatisfa…
The Slow Demise of Foster Care in South Australia
In December 1997, South Australia's alternative care system was radically restructured along 'funder-purchaser-provider' lines. A recent progress report into the workings of the new system (Barber, Cooper and Delfabbro, 1999) identified high levels of frustration and dissatisfaction throughout the sector. This article argues that the current problems in alternative care are a legacy of policy decisions by successive state governments, some of whi…
The Assessment of Parenting in Child Protection Cases
This article reports on the development of a procedure for standardized assessment ofparenting within statutory child protection agencies. The instruments were trialed on 64 children and adolescents under the supervision of the New Zealand Children, Young Persons, and Their Families Services (CYPFS) and results were compared with normative samples from Canada and Australia. Results revealed that CYPFS cases displayed poorerfunctioning and receive…
Intrapersonal versus peer group predictors of adolescent drug use
The Predictors of Adolescent Smoking
One thousand nine hundred and forty-two junior and senior high school students completed a self-report survey instrument containing measures of cigarette smoking and selected intrapersonal, peer pressure and family functioning variables. Results revealed that peer pressure was significantly associated with smoking behavior across all age gender cohorts, but that intrapersonal factors were significantly more important to the smoking behavior of 12…
The relative importance of factors which influence order of injecting with a shared needle and syringe
Injecting drug users (IDUs) in Adelaide, South Australia, rated the likelihood of first use of a shared needle and syringe by persons who have characteristics which have previously been suggested as influencing order of injecting. This enabled the relative importance of these factors to be assessed. It was found that those who supply their own drug and injecting equipment have the greatest likelihood of using first, but it is also somewhat advant…

Evaluation of a Self-Help Manual for the Female Partners of Heavy Drinkers
This article reports on a controlledfield trial into the effectiveness of a self-help manual based on the Pressures to Change procedure for the female partners of heavy drinkers. Thirty-eight female partners of heavy drinkers were randomly assigned either to counseling, self-help, or a waiting list control group. Clients were pre- and posttested using two self-report measures of distress, and the drinking behavior of the male partner was also mon…
Rural Disadvantage in the Distribution of South Australian Home and Community Care Funding
In this paper, the level of HACC funding under the South Australian Dementia Support and Respite Projects and the Community Support Scheme was compared across Domiciliary Care and Human Services and Health regions. Results revealed that metropolitan regions generally received more than their per capita share of HACC funding despite the greater cost of community services in rural areas and the relative paucity of supplementary or alternative rural…
The etiquette of needlesharing
The prevalence of hepatitis- and HIV-related risk-taking behavior, including the sharing of injecting equipment by injecting drug users (IDUs), has declined markedly in Australia over the last decade. This decrease reflects widespread improvements in the availability of injecting equipment over recent years, but the prevalence of needlesharing remains an ongoing concern, with up to 20% of IDUs reporting this practice within the month prior to int…
The Prevention of Aids Among Injecting Drug Users
There is great potential for the spread of HIV amongst injecting drug users (IDUs) if they engage in unsafe injecting and sexual practices. This paper identifies a range of obstacles to safe behaviour, includig availability of sterile injecting equipment, legal/policy factors, social norms and personal factors such as ignorance, beliefs, intoxication and craving. Two alternative policy options - harm reduction and use reduction - are discussed al…
Unilateral Interventions for Women Living with Heavy Drinkers
Despite the fact that unilateral therapy is often the only treatment option for women living with heavy drinkers, very few structured programs have been developed for this client group. Moreover, the programs that do exist lack empirical support (as in the case of Al-Anon) or have as their highest priority promoting change in the drinker. This article looks at unilateral therapy for women partners of heavy drinkers and concludes that although a n…

Social Support and Prevention of Relapse Following Treatment for Alcohol Abuse
All 30 clients who received standard inpatient treatment for alcohol abuse during 1992-93 in the north Tasmanian health region were randomly assigned to an additional social support intervention, to a self monitoring control intervention, or to a no-additional-treatment control group. Results indicated that artificially created social support was ineffective in influencing consumption beyond what was produced by a combination of standard outpatie…

Alcohol Addiction: Private Trouble or Social Issue
In this article, I argue that the ineffectiveness of current drug treatment methods is in part attributable to a fundamental misunderstanding by clinicians and addiction researchers about the nature of drug dependence itself. In the debate surrounding whether addiction is a disease or a learned behavior, the inescapably social dimension of the problem under investigation is frequently overlooked. A social-ecological perspective is proposed in whi…
Evaluating Parent Education Groups: Effects on Sense of Competence and Social Isolation
One-hundred twenty-four mothers from eight community service regions in the Australian state of Tasmania participated in a study of parent education services provided in a small group format. Using a no-treatment control group design, it was predicted that participation in parent education groups would enhance the mother's sense of competence as a parent, reduce parental social isolation, and improve child comportment. These hypotheses were parti…

Unemployment and Helplessness
After reviewing the literature dealing with the psychological effects of unemployment, it is concluded that a more thorough-going theoretical analysis of the problem is needed. To this end, the theory of learned helplessness is outlined and found to provide theoretical in-roads into the psychology of unemployment. Finally, implications for social work practice are considered
Setting Priorities in the National Campaign Against Drug Abuse
In its ‘National Campaign Against Drug Abuse’, the Federal Government has decided to give top priority in the 1987 financial year to preventing the use of heroin and cocaine, particularly among the young. After reviewing the drug consumption habits of North Queenslanders, we conclude that this decision does not address the most immediate drug‐related health problems of the region. Our data suggest not only that legal drugs pose a far greater thre…
Minimal and Self-help Methods in the Secondary Prevention of Alcohol Misuse
Social workers are ideally placed for the secondary prevention of alcohol misuse because of their involvement in outpatient departments and public welfare settings. If social workers are to incorporate addiction work into their existing duties however, they will need brief intervention methods that can be offered as part of a more comprehensive casework plan. This paper looks at some promising developments in the area of minimal and self-help met…

Science and Social Work: Are They Compatible
This article was originally presented in 1995 as the keynote address of the National Conference of the Australian Association of Social Workers. The author analyzes some of the sources of resistance to accepting scientific methodology within social work, including political, philosophical, and quasi-religious ones. The strength of scientific methods, as opposed to other ways of knowing, includes their utility in proving that some "findings" are i…
