However, it has been proposed that single-issue interventions cannot adequately address the multiple needs that some families experiences. This paper outlines a novel approach in which three evidence-based practices (Multisystemic Therapy, Incredible Years, and Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy) were concurrently implemented within the same programme. The objectives are to explore the experience and perceptions of practitioners who implemented the blended model, to explore the novelty of blended approaches, to examine the extent to which families were engaged in and were retained in this programme, and compare the outcomes for families who received blended and nonblended approaches. Method: Data was collected for 158 families between March 2014 and March 2016. Thirty-one families engaged in the blended approach. to explore the feasibility, semistructured interviews were undertaken with 14 staff. Results: Not all families are in need of a blended approach, but families who experience multiple complexities may benefit more from this type of approach. From the perspective of practitioners, blended models provide an opportunity to address multiple needs within the family. However, there are implementation challenges that could be explored further.","PeriodicalId":46016,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Family Social Work","volume":"22 1","pages":"369 - 388"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10522158.2019.1616240","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47499168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated which factors predict two types of parents’ well-being: individual well-being and parenting-related well-being. Participants were 416 parents (90 fathers, 326 mothers) of a baby (younger than age 1 year old), both first-time parents and not-first-time parents. Relationship quality, life skills, parenting skills, and social support were taken into account. Results show that both types of well-being have different main predictors. Self-esteem, self-management, and interpersonal relationship skills contribute to both types of well-being, suggesting that interventions aimed at improving these skills could be very beneficial for parents in their transition to parenthood. Fathers and mothers differ significantly on several predictors—for example, self-esteem, self-management, parenting behavior, and empathy—suggesting they might have different needs for support in the transition to parenthood. Finally, results show that, though parents get better at providing basic care for their children, regarding well-being and relationship quality, not-first-time parents are not better off then first-time parents. Therefore, interventions aimed at easing the transition to parenthood should not only be aimed at first time parents, they might be more effective for parents who already have children.","PeriodicalId":46016,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Family Social Work","volume":"22 1","pages":"274 - 291"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10522158.2018.1499063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43071376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dependence of power system on distributed energy sources, including renewable and non-conventional, has made the control of the system sufficiently intricate. With the use of modern power electronic devices, now-a-days, the complexities in system contrology are made more efficient, user-friendly and reliable also. But the usage of these devices has pushed a power system in serious quality problem. Since the use of sophisticated electronic gadgets has increased in every sphere of life, for their good longevity, requirement of quality power has become a predominant criterion to the consumers in the present deregulated competitive power market. Therefore, electric power quality has become the concern of utilities, end users as well as manufacturers. This book is intended for graduate, postgraduate and researchers as well as for professionals in the related fields. This book has evolved from the researches carried out by the authors and the contents of the courses given by the authors at University of Calcutta, Department of Applied Physics, India in the Bachelor and Master’s courses in Electrical Engineering. A large number of references are given in the book most of which are journal and conference papers and national and international standards. The contents of the book focuses, on one hand, on different power quality issues, their sources and effects and different related standards, and on the other hand, measurement techniques for different power quality parameters. Advantages and limitations of different methods are discussed along simulated and laboratory experiment results. At the end, a chapter has been added which deals a concept of generation of harmonics in a power system and its components.

This work requires that family victim advocates be knowledgeable in such areas as child development, crisis intervention, community resources, family relationships, child welfare and criminal justice systems. Because family victim advocates provide essential services to parents and caregivers, the role requires ongoing training and education to remain current on the ever-changing complexities of working with not only the children and families but also the criminal and child protection systems responsible for investigating these cases. The current study reports the findings from a nationwide survey of family victim advocates employed in child advocacy centers related to their motivation for doing the work as well as their perceptions of their training and potential training needs. A group of doctoral students comprised the research team and worked collaboratively under the supervision of university faculty to conduct the qualitative data analysis. The findings describe the characteristics and motivations of family victim advocates working in child advocacy centers and emphasize the need for more advanced trainings that focus on skill-building and strengths-based practices utilized to support children and parents in child abuse cases.","PeriodicalId":46016,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Family Social Work","volume":"22 1","pages":"389 - 404"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10522158.2019.1616239","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41453191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This focus has limited our understanding of what it is that men do within foster caring families and they are automatically assigned secondary or breadwinning roles. Families who foster involve some form of renegotiation of roles to care for children they foster. While foster caring arrangements are internationally diverse, foster carers often work with social workers. It would therefore seem important for social workers to understand how foster carers negotiate their parenting roles. This paper reports findings from seven main caring foster-fathers who took part in a wider study involving twentythree foster-fathers. The evidence provided by these foster-fathers demonstrate they are highly motivated to care for children and, alongside delivering traditional parenting roles, they negotiate new, non-traditional parenting roles as foster-fathers. These new roles, taken on by foster-fathers, often challenge stereotyped masculinity while they also concurrently enact parenting norms. This study applied Judith Butler’s work on performing gender to foster caring families to theorise on the process whereby foster-fathers negotiate diverse masculinities and continue to reproduce gendered relations in foster caring families.","PeriodicalId":46016,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Family Social Work","volume":"22 1","pages":"352 - 368"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10522158.2019.1608612","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42404618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research began with focus groups involving family service workers who identified three key domains influencing service intensity: worker/family relationship, family motivation, and family characteristics. The family characteristics domain is the focus of this article. Influencing factors within this domain are examined through analysis of database information from 258 families who had previously accessed family services through a community services organization. Key predictors identified include the gender of main consumer, family size, and presence of issues such as family violence and physical illness. These findings are used to develop a model to predict intervention intensity for families accessing family services. The ability to estimate service intensity provides data to effectively develop innovative programs and enable better balancing of staff workloads and resources. Additionally, the capability to predict intensity helps allocate families to appropriate workers and programs.","PeriodicalId":46016,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Family Social Work","volume":"22 1","pages":"146 - 160"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10522158.2018.1558429","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44391587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This issue presents four articles that contribute to the knowledge base on both accounts. In an “Exploratory Study of Childhood Adversity and Delinquency among Youth in the context of Child-to-Parent and Sibling-to-Sibling Violence,” author Eva Nowakowski-Sims explores the childhood experiences of 83 adolescents who are involved in family violence. Her research distinguishes among variables such as experiencing versus witnessing family violence and adds to the growing body of knowledge that will further early intervention and treatment. Authors Leanne Kelly, Lyndon Walker, and Julie Knowles question the nature of services that are provided to a wide range of families. In “Family Characteristics as Predictors of Intensity in Family Services,” the authors research family characteristics such as illness, family violence, and the worker/family relationship and develop a predictive model that has great potential for agencies. Decisions to place children out of their family are of the utmost importance but remain variable and often unpredictable. In “Factors Associated with the Decision-Making Process in Kinship Diversion,” authors Qi Wu and Susan Snyder question the factors that influence decisions to use kinship care versus the foster care system. The authors note the importance of the child’s age, assessment of risk and the caseworker’s educational background as factors that drive the decision. Author Robyn Mairoza explores the specific challenges created by unemployment. “Family Challenges Created by Unemployment” delves beyond financial stress to consider the changes in roles and other sources of stress that are endured by families. These problem areas may not be clearly understood by family members but effect children and parent alike. Together, these articles contribute to the ways that we can best provide services for the families we are privileged to serve.","PeriodicalId":46016,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Family Social Work","volume":"22 1","pages":"125 - 125"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10522158.2019.1572330","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47939780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
