Using Planned Adaptation to Implement Evidence‐Based Programs with New Populations
The Interactive Systems Framework (ISF) for Dissemination and Implementation (Wandersman et al. 2008 ) elaborates the functions and structures that move evidence‐based programs (EBPs) from research to practice. Inherent in that process is the tension between implementing programs with fidelity and the need to tailor programs to fit the target population. We propose Planned Adaptation as one approach to resolve this tension, with the goal of guidi…
Racial Differences in Perceptions of Social Support in Consumer-Centered Services
The purpose of this study was to explore potential racial differences in the experience of support offered by consumer-centered services for adults with serious mental illness. The study used hierarchical linear modeling to examine the level of support consumers report receiving from programs and the extent to which program-level characteristics reflecting racial diversity differentially influence white and African American consumers. The study u…
Neighborhood research from a spatially oriented strengths perspective
Research investigating neighborhood effects on children and families has been largely deficit and individual‐focused, investigated structural variables, and has typically produced equivocal findings and small effect sizes. We suggest an approach focused on community strengths and resources that stresses the role of measures of social interaction variables and the utilization of analytic strategies that model the spatial and nested nature of conte…
Validation of a Fidelity Rating Instrument for Consumer-Operated Services
With the emphasis on the use of evidence-based practices has come a need to measure the fidelity of replications to the operations and principles of original models. Recent reviews have focused on methods to develop fidelity measures for evidence-based program models. However, the issue of how to validate such measures has been given scant attention. The research reported here attempted to validate a fidelity rating instrument (FRI) for consumer-…
Campus mental health services
College officials indicate that the number of students with serious mental illnesses has risen significantly. Recent media attention surrounding several high profile suicides has opened discussion of mental illness on campus. The authors summarize literature on college students and mental illness, including barriers to service receipt. Recommendations to improve campus-based responses to serious mental illness are presented on the basis of well-a…
Predictors of Neighborhood Satisfaction
Insufficient attention has been devoted to an examination of the factors that predict the level of satisfaction that community residents have with the neighborhoods in which they live. In this paper, we describe a program of research to examine the predictors of neighborhood satisfaction. Data on neighborhoods and individuals in Flint, Michigan were obtained from the 2000 Census and a citywide survey of neighborhood residents. Multilevel models w…
Living Arrangements and Social Support
This article examines the effects of living arrangements on the well-being of mothers with a serious mental illness. Analyses of data from a National Institute of Mental Health-funded study of an urban, primarily African American sample of 379 mothers with mental illness revealed few differences in parenting or social functioning between mothers living with their children and a spouse or partner and those living with their children only. However,…
A Fidelity Rating Instrument for Consumer-Run Drop-in Centers (FRI-CRDI)
Objective: Given the present emphasis on accountability and maintaining quality, the objective of this study was to develop, apply, and assess the reliability of a fidelity rating instrument for consumer-operated services—a promising model, but one for which fidelity criteria are not yet established. Method: Based on observations, documents, and director interviews from 31 consumer-run drop-in centers, we developed a scale measuring fidelity to p…
Supported Education for Adults with Psychiatric Disabilities
With medications that improve cognition and advances in knowledge of successful rehabilitative approaches, adults with psychiatric disabilities are increasingly able to pursue desired personal and career goals in their communities. This article focuses on supported education (SEd)-one of the newest psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) models for adults with mental illness. The mission, principles, and service components of SEd are presented, reflect…
Higher Education and Psychiatric Disabilities
Students with psychiatric disabilities are an increasing presence on college and university campuses. However, there is little factual information about the services available to these students in campus disability services offices or the extent to which they use these services. This article reports the results of a survey of disability services offices at colleges and universities in 10 states. Data from 275 schools revealed the number of studen…

Assessment of Self-Esteem Among Individuals with Severe Mental Illness
This study examines whether the factor structure of the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale consists of two dimensions (Owens, 1993), and whether the two dimensions are associated with different predictive factors and behavioral outcomes among individuals with severe mental illness who are served by community-based, psychosocial rehabilitation agencies. Confirmatory factor analyses of data from these individuals indicated that the traditional global self…
Factors influencing self-esteem among individuals with severe mental illness
This study analyzed affecting self-esteem among individuals with severe mental illness to identify effective targets for social work interventions. Data were obtained from 290 individuals with psychiatric disability recruited from community-based psychosocial rehabilitation agencies. Analyses using structural equation modeling revealed that self-esteem consists of two independent dimensions--self-worth and self-deprecation; characteristics are mo…

Fidelity Criteria
Fidelity may be defined as the extent to which delivery of an intervention adheres to the protocol or program model originally developed. Fidelity measurement has increasing significance for evaluation, treatment effectiveness research, and service administration. Yet few published studies using fidelity criteria provide details on the construction of a valid fidelity index. The purpose of this review article is to outline steps in the developmen…
Replication of a psychosocial rehabilitation program
This article describes a strategy of organizing community stakeholder groups for the purpose of planning and implementing an innovative mental health program—supported education services for adults with mental illnesses who were interested in pursuing postsecondary education. A common planning framework was used in several different communities within the same state. The framework is described, as well as each community's characteristics and thei…

Mental Health and Mental Illness
The extensive changes in mental health services over the past 25 years negate the possibility of an overall research summary. Instead, we identify six pivotal topics to explore in depth: (1) the paradigm shift to a biopsychosocial mental illness etiology, (2) the organization and financing of mental health care, (3) community‐based programs for adults with serious mental illness, (4) the role of families and consumers, (5) services for children a…
Positive Parenting Among African American Mothers With a Serious Mental Illness
Positive parenting is hampered by social-contextual risks-lack of income, education, and support, as well as maternal mental illness-but current models do not examine the effect of each factor in concert with the others. Using structural equation modeling and a community sample (N= 202) of African American mothers diagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia, we examined the direct and indirect effects of poverty, maternal educat…
Parenting among mothers with a serious mental illness
In the past few decades, deinstitutionalization and community-based rehabilitation and support programs have increased the likelihood that women with serious mental disorders will be parents and will raise their children. This review describes what is known about the parenting of these women, focusing on diagnosis, child characteristics, and other contextual effects
Supported education for individuals with psychiatric disabilities
Research indicates that many individuals with psychiatric disabilities often experience the onset of mental illness in young adulthood. This fact, as well as educational discrimination, unmet needs for support, personal fears of failure, and the cyclical nature of their illness causes many of these individuals not to pursue higher education, despite their intellectual qualifications. Supported education programs have arisen as psychosocial rehabi…
Establishing Individualized Goals in a Supported Education Intervention
Objectives: Support for goal-setting and attainment is a frequent component of social work interventions aimed at fostering client growth. This study investigated goal-setting and attainment in the Michigan Supported Education Research Project, an intervention that provides support for adults with psychiatric disabilities to engage in postsecondary education. Method: An experimental design with three conditions was used and data was collected at …
The Importance of Context in Understanding Homelessness and Mental Illness
Research reports on the housing outcomes for persons who are homeless and mentally ill have focused on client characteristics, program type, and services as independent variables, with mixed results. From social work practice, evaluation theory, and public policy perspectives, context is an important variable. Yet, it has received scant research attention in studies of the outcomes of persons who are mentally ill and homeless. This article summar…

Short versus longer term effectiveness of an outreach program for the homeless mentally Ill
Presents 12‐month follow‐up results from an outreach/linkage intervention with persons who are homeless and mentally ill, contrasting these with results obtained at 4 months. Both sets reflect the success of the program in placing individuals in independent housing. However, longer term data provide useful information regarding client movement patterns and increased tenure in nonhomeless living arrangements beyond the termination of specialized s…
Gender and Serious Mental Illness
Perhaps in reaction to criticisms of “woman as problem” formulations, psychological literature has nearly ignored women with serious mental illnesses (SMI), although epidemiological research indicates that women are overrepresented in these diagnoses. Data are presented on characteristics, functioning, and services received for a sample of nearly 2,500 SMI clients. Statistical clustering of clients with similar profiles produced four out of six c…

Community treatment for the seriously mentally ill
Conclusions Community treatment for seriously mentally ill individuals fits well into the philosophy of community psychology. Community psychologists have skills and experiences with other populations that represent assets in improving the ACT service model and producing richer and more useful research results for the future. Maybe we should ask ourselves why community psychologists have obviously avoided this intervention area and the population…

Sex Differences Among the Long-Term Mentally Disabled
Although the “chronically mentally ill” have become a subject of national concern and although differences among the young, old, and minorities have been recognized, sex differences have been largely ignored. The authors describe the experientially determined problems of long-term mentally disabled women. Research is presented from a review of 320 hospital records of patients served in seven community and state hospitals throughout Michigan, enco…

Serving the homeless mentally ill
A substantial amount of research on homeless mentally ill individuals within the last 5 years has clarified their numbers, characteristics, and service needs. Research is lacking, however, on effective service models. A Mental Health Linkage model is presented, derived from practice principles in the literature, including outreach, community integration of mental health services, and meeting clients on their terms. The model is described and data…

Motherhood for women with serious mental illness
Although women with serious mental illness have normal fertility rates, the literature points to multiple risk factors and a paucity of emotional and economic support during the initial phases of parenthood. Since most research has focused on child outcomes, the extent and nature of parenting problems experienced by these mothers are not adequately understood. An emphasis on the context of parenting and the meaning of pregnancy and childbearing t…
Improving Social Work Practice with Persons Who are Homeless and Mentally Ill
Despite a proliferation of programs targeted for persons who are homeless and mentally ill, few reports in the literature detail the challenges experienced or strategies utilized by workers, the majority of whom are social workers. The present study reports results from two focus group sessions held with staff running a model service intervention for this population at two separate sites. The methodology that was utilized quanitified results, all…
Services Provided by a Homeless Intervention
Despite the acknowledged need for effective programs to serve persons who are homeless and mentally ill, few evaluations of these programs provide quantitative details on service provision. Such information can be useful to planners for replication and also for public policy concerning the need to mandate services most in demand. This report on a successful outreach intervention reports information on service amounts, duration, and types, as well…

Social climate differences in a large psychiatric hospital
Most of the research on social climate in psychiatric hospitals has addressed differences in client/staff perceptions, while neglecting the differences in social climate across types of wards. However, the literature on setting heterogeneity has also suggested that it might be important to examine differences between types of wards within a psychiatric institution since different setting subclassifications have been identified in other settings (…

Supported education as an empowerment intervention for people with mental illness
Many adults with severe mental illnesses experienced disability onset in early adulthood, causing interruption or indefinite postponement of postsecondary education. Supported education programs are a recent innovation to assist in integrating people with mental illness, who desire to resume their postsecondary education in an educational setting where they can experience life as a student rather than as a mental patient. This study reports analy…
