The Protective Association of Financial Product Ownership: Examining Debt Collection Experiences Following Incarceration
This study (n = 6,595) investigates the relationship between incarceration experience and debt collection, and whether the relationship varies based on heterogeneity in financial product ownership (e.g. bank account). Latent Class Analysis (LCA) is used to create four classes of ownership (Comprehensive Financial Products, Core Financial Products, Basic Financial Products, and Limited Financial Products). Results suggest that the relationship bet…
Understanding child well‐being in CPS: Nativity and immigration status diversity in Latino families
Objective In this exploratory descriptive study, we examined the well‐being of Latino children involved with child protective services (CPS), focusing on differences by caregiver nativity and immigration status. Background Latino families in CPS investigations vary in nativity and legal status, potentially shaping children's well‐being and access to services. However, limited research disaggregates Latino subgroups, restricting equitable policy d…

The final sample included 470 fourth-grade students in the treatment group (…
Patterns and determinants of multiple welfare programme participation among families with children in Taiwan: Evidence from panel data (2016–2022)
This study investigates multiple welfare programme participation patterns in Taiwan. Taiwan is a productivist welfare society with a social safety net system that is generous in design and has a package of fertility‐boosting assistance programmes to address low birth rates. The present study examines panel data using longitudinal latent class analysis (LLCA) and multinomial logistic regression to capture and depict participation patterns across a…

Who Stays Poor and Who Doesn't? An Analysis Based on Joint Assessment of Income and Assets
When designing programs to assist the poor, it is important to recognize who is most in need of government assistance. Although measures of poverty are often based on income alone, poverty measures based on both income and assets provide greater precision in the analysis of this group since accumulated assets can be liquidated to compensate for temporary shortfalls in income. The current study used the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (2007-2017) t…
Poverty or Racism? A Re-Analysis of Briggs et al. 2022
Purpose: This paper presents a re-analysis of the National Child Abuse and Neglect Data System (NCANDS) data presented by Briggs et al. (2022). Methods: We review five components of that article: The aims, variables, analytic strategy, analysis, and conclusions. Results: We conclude that several of the NCANDS variables used are invalid at the national level, and that this is sufficient to call the research into question. We find concerning issues…

Purpose: The National Child Abuse and Neglect Data System (NCANDS) Child File, the only national dataset cataloging child maltreatment reports. It includes variables representing economic distress frequently used in published research. At the national level, these variables are demonstrably implausible, substantially underestimating economic distress. Method: This paper reviews recent work using these variables, analyzes the NCANDS data directly,…

Who are the Asset-Poor in China: A Comprehensive Description and Policy Implications
There is a large body of literature asserting that household asset holdings play a critical role in prospects of economic and social well-being. This study examines asset-poverty rates in China using the 2013 survey data from the Chinese Household Income Project (CHIP). The results indicate that asset-poverty rates in urban China were lower than those of developed countries, whereas rural and migrant households experienced more serious asset pove…
