Existing tools overlook the ethical context of social work. The Perceptions of Technology Used for Social Work (PTUSW) scale was developed to address this gap, incorporating ethical compatibility, self-efficacy, and perceived usefulness. Method: Experts evaluated items for content validity. A purposive sample of 112 social work students (mean age = 34, 80% female) completed the scale. Factor analyses were conducted to assess model fit, and construct validity was examined. Results: Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis supported a three-factor structure. The 18-item PTUSW scale comprises three subscales and demonstrated strong content and factorial validity with good model fit and reliability (stratified α = .91). Discussion: The PTUSW scale supports reflective learning and ethical preparedness in the use of technology for future practitioners. Further validation with more diverse student and practitioner populations is needed.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"149 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144748195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We test ChatGPT-4o's ability to accurately screen citations and present an accessible approach, tailored to social work scholars with limited AI experience. Method: Through prompt engineering, we tested how two vectorization techniques, three algorithms, and class weighting impact ChatGPT-4o's classification accuracy for article inclusion in two SRs compared to models run in a native Python environment (Jupyter Notebook). Results: ChatGPT-4o-generated models were comparable to Jupyter Notebook, with the bag of words or term frequency-inverse document frequency and logistic regression models performing well. Additionally, adjusting for class imbalance improved performance across samples and models. Discussion: This approach is effective, promoting accessibility for researchers and practitioners. We encourage future researchers to replicate and extend the use of chatbots in the screening process.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144715291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The research utilized a longitudinal prospective cohort study design, following the same sample of social work undergraduates in Turkey, consisting of 18 participants observed in 2012, 2015, and 2023. Building on an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, quantitative data was collected first using the Attitudes toward Lesbians and Gay Men Scale and then followed up with a qualitative phase consisting of four semistructured in-depth interviews conducted in 2023.

Method: A single-subject multiple probe design was used with four father–child dyads. Fathers received training on simultaneous prompting and taught their children three consumer skills: online bill payment, ordering food, and buying movie tickets. Results: All fathers reached over 90% instructional fidelity, and all children reached 100% accuracy in each target skill. These gains were maintained during follow-up sessions. Social validity data indicated high satisfaction among fathers and perceived improvements in children's confidence and independence. Discussion: Findings support the effectiveness of structured, family-based programs in teaching functional digital skills to individuals with DS.

Methods: Large language models (LLMs) were used to analyze 19,134 conference abstracts presented at the Society for Social Work and Research (2012–2025) for P/CT alignment and methodology. Multimodel evaluation demonstrated excellent reliability across six frontier LLMs (kappa = .73). Results: Temporal analysis revealed substantial increases in P/CT engagement, with “Aligned” presentations growing 7.7-fold and “Partially Aligned” tripling between 2012 and 2025. This growth was distinctly concentrated in qualitative research, reaching 9.28% aligned and 47.81% partially aligned by 2025. The share of quantitative research declined (66.03%–48.36%), while qualitative research expanded (18.43%–31.20%). These trends accelerated after 2019. Discussion: Findings validate increased P/CT presence as methodological concentration, not uniform adoption.

Methods: The single-arm, pre-post experimental feasibility trial was tested among 47 caregivers, identified from a community in Kerala, India. The intervention employed a tiered approach, tailoring strategies of varying intensity based on caregivers’ depression severity, as assessed using standardized scales. Results: A significant decrease was observed on both outcome measures, depression and caregiver burden following the intervention. Subgroup analysis based on baseline depression severity indicated a significant decrease in depression scores among caregivers with moderate or higher levels of depression, while caregiver burden decreased across all groups. Discussions: By customizing intervention strategies based on the severity of depression, this study contributes to the theoretical understanding of how tiered interventions can be more effective than a one-size-fits-all approach.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144513308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
