Breaking Down the Silos
The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services has used performance-based contracting (PBC) as a strategy to drive child welfare system reform for more than a decade. The Striving for Excellence project expanded the use of PBC to residential treatment services, i.e., institutional and congregate care. This article details the lessons learned from the public child welfare agency perspective over the course of the first 3 years of project …
Immune Function Declines With Unemployment and Recovers After Stressor Termination
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of unemployment on natural killer cell cytotoxicity (NKCC) and, in a subsample of persons who become re-employed, to determine if, after termination of the stressor, immune values recover to levels similar to matched controls. METHODS: One hundred unemployed and 100 matched employed healthy men and women, aged 29 to 45 years, were followed for 4 months with monthly blood samples taken to measure NKCC, the ability …
Self-Generated Identification Codes for Anonymous Collection of Longitudinal Questionnaire Data
Self-Generated Identification Codes for Anonymous Collection of Longitudinal Questionnaire Data
The success of a self-generated identification code for linking longitudinal questionnaire data was examined. The matching procedure developed for linking questionnaires, including a simple technique to compensate for nonidentical codes, yielded a high success rate (92% linkage of cases over a one-month interval and 78% over a one-year interval) and very few incorrectly linked cases. The procedure worked equally well with elementary and high scho…

Behavior change following self-confrontation
This study presents a reanalysis of data from Rokeach's self-confrontation experiments using path analytic techniques. Contrary to Rokeach's interpretations, findings indicate that behavior changes following self-confrontation are not primarily mediated through changes in value priorities. Rather, the available data suggest that the self-confrontation process involves the resolution of inconsistencies between behaviors and self-conceptions that a…
