Child welfare practice and policy related to the impact of children experiencing physical victimization and domestic violence
Perception of risk among child protection workers
The Association of Poverty With Child Welfare Service and Child and Family Clinical Outcomes
The influences of poverty, family status and violence in the lives of children and families seen at a large urban children's aid society are investigated. Rates of social assistance dependency of child welfare families in 1995 and 2001 are compared. While the rate of poverty of child welfare families is stable across the two time periods, the ability of families to cope with poverty has dramatically changed, with the percentage of children from i…
The relationship between maternal depression and child outcomes in a child welfare sample
Maternal depression is an extremely important parenting variable in relation to child general health. This investigation addressed the issue of maternal depression as it relates to the lives of children seen by child welfare authorities. Maternal depression was investigated in the context of the increasing rate of children coming to the attention of the London and Middlesex Children's Aid Society. A variety of child outcomes including those of pa…
Dispersion and Polarization of Income among Aboriginal and Non‐Aboriginal Canadians
Cet article pose trois questions: 1) Pourquoi étudier les inégalités entre les autochtones? 2) Quel est l'écart entre les salaires et les revenus de la population canadienne en général et ceux des différents peuples autochtones? et 3) Jusqu'à quel point existe‐t‐il des inégalités entre les peuples autochtones ainsi qu'entre la population autochtone et la population non autochtone? Cet article montre une tendance générale de l'augmentation des dis…
Comprehensive Evaluation
“Social accounting” or “social auditing” has been recommended as an alternative to more traditional methods of evaluating certain types of social programs and the contributions of non-profit organizations. This article examines the similarities and differences between social accounting and more traditional types of evaluation as well as identifying the strengths and weaknesses of each. The contributions of each are incorporated in a framework of …
Explaining unsafe sexual behaviour
This study examined the reasons why military personnel in the Canadian Forces (CF) engaged in risky sexual practices despite their knowledge acquired during educational/informal training programs. Analytic induction and grounded theory were used to generate and test their explanations. Interviews were first conducted with seven key informants and later with 71 members of the CF in order to formulate, test and reshape hypotheses accounting for het…

Sex and Age Patterns in Self-Injury
Age and sex differences in rates of self-injury are prominent and relatively unexplained. A prospective study of self-injury patients resident in London, Canada was carried out between 1969 and 1971. It wasfound that rates of self-injury are higherforfemales andforyoung persons, compared with suicide rates which are higherfor males and for older persons. Other factors related to rates of self-injury are also examined, but the basic age and sex pa…
Alcohol Problems and Social Control
Explaining Alcoholism
An explanation of alcoholism based on the structure and quality of social norms is tested with data on several preliterate non-European societies. Little support is found for this hypothesis, but the analysis reveals that a variable-general consumption level-which is at most implied in the original formulation, has a high degree of explanatory and predictive value. The implications of this variable are discussed in terms of an additional body of …
Developmental Sequence and Dimensions of Alcoholism
A comparison of the drinking histories of Finnish men alcoholics with those of American men alcoholics indicates that significant experiences in alcoholism develop in essentially the same chronological order regardless of cultural differences
Wives of Alcoholics; a Critical Review and Analysis
The literature on the wives of alcoholics is reviewed under three headings: the disturbed-personality theory, the stress theory and the psychosocial theory. It is concluded that, at present, the only tenable hypothesis is that these wives are not unique

Measuring the incidence of self-injury
Self-injury behavior in a city of some 200,000 residents was measured in a study designed to employ a wider variety of sources of information than had previous studies. The study disclosed a much higher rate of self-injury than reported in earlier studies. Reasons for this high rate are discussed, and the authors contend that the “true” rate of self-injury is much higher even than that reported in their study
