Some Ethical Standards to Guide Community Practice and an Example of an Ethical Dilemma from the Field
This paper describes a survey research project that was designed to assist local United Way volunteers in making decisions about the extent to which contributor input should influence United Way allocation decisions. This paper reviews ethical issues inherent in projects with implications for the community at large, and articulates ethical standards that might be used as guidelines for planning and implementing community interventions. These ethi…
The Psychological Sense of Community in the Neighborhood
Many urban problems are blamed on a declining sense of community. To assess such claims and to learn how policies affect sense of community, we need a reliable and valid measure for the construct. This paper describes the development and testing of an 11-item Likert scale of the sense of neighborhood community, using responses from 54 residents in three suburbs in Columbus, Ohio. One test of the scale with 100 residents in single-use and mixed-us…
Residential and community treatment services utilized by a sample of youth with severe emotional disturbances
Analyzed case records to determine the costs and service usage patterns for a group of 25 youth randomly selected from the case load of a regional mental health agency. Study participants had extensive histories of publicly supported psychiatric hospitalizations. An average of 36.2 contacts per youth (905 total contacts) with human services providers were documented. Approximately 2 out of every 5 contacts resulted in out‐of‐home placements. The …
