  • Child Welfare Research

    Duncan Lindsey, Aron ShlonskyBOOKChild Welfare Research2008

    Research has already been a significant factor in child welfare policy in recent years, but this book demonstrates that it has taken a leading role in the field to spur and guide change. The chapters in this book assess the effect of research on the full spectrum of child welfare services. The book covers every base. The opening chapters situate child welfare research in the modern context; they are followed by discussions of evidence-based pract…

  • Child Poverty and Inequality

    Duncan LindseyBOOKThe Future of Children2008

    One of the United States' great promises is that all children will be given the opportunity to work in order to achieve a comfortable standard of living. That promise has faded profoundly for American children who have grown up in poverty, particularly black and Hispanic children, and many of the deepening fault lines in the social order are traceable to this disparity. In recent years the promise has also begun to fade for children of the Americ…

  • The Effects of Computerization on Public Child Welfare Practice

    Dale Weaver, Tally Moses et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Service Research2003Cited by: 2References: 26

    This paper examines the impact of a new and promising case-based management information system on child welfare case management practices in two California counties. The objectives were to measure the extent to which computerization affected casework practices and to identify factors that influenced the effects of computerization. An exploratory longitudinal one-group pre-post design was used. Contrary to expectations, few differences were found,…

  • Ensuring Standards in Social Work Research

    Open AccessDuncan LindseyARTICLEResearch on Social Work Practice1999

    The strength of a profession derives from its knowledge base. Researchers in medicine, engineering, and business have amassed a critical body of empirically tested knowledge that empowers their practitioners. The development of a knowledge base requires social institutions that encourage and reward research. One of the most critical institutions for the development of knowledge is a profession’s peer review journals. The journals allow the profes…

  • Mandated reporting and child abuse fatalities

    Duncan LindseyARTICLESocial Work Research1994

    Research by pediatricians and radiologists during the 1950s uncovered evidence that large numbers of children were being physically abused and killed by their caretakers. In 1962 Kempe and his colleagues published their historic study, “Battered-Child Syndrome,” which provided empirical evidence of severe physical abuse of children by their caretakers. The public concern aroused by this study led to the rapid development and enactment of mandator…

  • Protecting severely abused children

    Duncan Lindsey, Cheryl RegehrARTICLEAmerican Journal of Orthopsychiatry1993References: 8

    Child abuse legislation and increased public scrutiny have made child abuse the main focus of child welfare agencies. As a criminal act, severe child abuse should be dealt with by the criminal justice system to protect both endangered children and the rights of accused parents. Thus relieved of excessive demands, child welfare agencies could refocus on treatment and services to economically disadvantaged clients. A framework for intervention in a…

  • Reliability of the Foster Care Placement Decision

    Open AccessDuncan LindseyARTICLEResearch on Social Work Practice1992

    When a child welfare caseworker is deciding whether or not to remove a child from his or her biological parent or parents and to place the child in foster family care, the worker is making one of the most important decisions in both the parent's and the child's life. What is the foundation for this type of drastic intervention? This article reviews the scientific and clinical knowledge base developed to warrant professional intervention by the ch…

  • The Role of Social Work Journals in the Development of a Knowledge Base for the Profession

    Duncan Lindsey, Stuart A KirkARTICLESocial Service Review1992Cited by: 23

    Journals play a fundamental role in the development of professions by selecting and preserving elements of their body of knowledge. What editors choose to publish has consequences. One way of assessing how editors and journals are performing is by examining whether what is published is used by other scholars. Using impact scores derived from citations, we examine the impact articles published in core social work journals have on other scholars. T…

  • Factors affecting the foster care placement decision

    Duncan LindseyARTICLEAmerican Journal of Orthopsychiatry1991

    With more than 350,000 children in foster care in the United States, this paper explores why some children are removed from their biological parents while others, with similar problems, receive services in the home. A discriminant analysis of children who were placed in foster care and those who were provided supportive services at home suggests that, for children in all age groups, parents' income level is the best predictor of a child's removal…
