Participants shared their perceptions and experiences with LLMs following a collaborative case consultation exercise using ChatGPT and a video demonstration of a client using ChatGPT.Results: Social work practitioners described both benefits and concerns with LLM use in their practice. Two overarching themes emerged: (1) factors that enhanced social workers' perceived usefulness of LLMs in clinical practice, including support for administrative tasks and client engagement, and (2) factors that diminished perceived usefulness, such as concerns about confidentiality, loss of nuance, and limitations in conveying empathy and contextual understanding.Discussion: Practitioners shared that they are using LLMs as idea generators in clinical work, while simultaneously expressing concern about the quality of information and the need for a human‑centered approach. They also noted that their decision to adopt LLMs is shaped by professional ethics and relational values, reflecting a preference for augmentation rather than full automation to preserve therapeutic depth and client wellbeing.Conclusion: Future AI implementation should focus on practitioner training and clear ethical guidelines to support responsible integration of LLMs. Ongoing evaluation will be essential to ensure these tools enhance clinical practice without compromising the therapeutic relationship or core social work values.","PeriodicalId":73742,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evidence-based social work (2019)","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144765873","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}

We developed an intervention named Web-based Single-session Intervention of Mindsets on Intelligence, Failure, and Emotion (We-SMILE) and examined its acceptability and efficacy on reducing practicum-related anxiety.Materials and methods: The pilot study used a two-arm randomized controlled trial. Participants were recruited from social work and counseling practicum programs and were randomly allocated to the We-SMILE or training-as-usual (TAU) group. Participants were surveyed online at pre- (T0), post-intervention (T1), two-week (T2), and eight-week (T3) follow-ups. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired t-tests, and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests.Results: A total of 37 trainees participated in the pilot study (We-SMILE group: 15, TAU group: 22). Within-group analyses showed significant effects on reducing practicum-related anxiety at post-intervention (Z = -2.010, p = .044, Cohen's d = 1.214), improving practicum preparation (Z = -2.669, p = .008, Cohen's d = 1.902) and confidence at eight-week follow-up (t = 2.712, p = .017, Cohen's d = 0.700).Discussion: The We-SMILE intervention demonstrated short- and long-term positive effects in supporting practicum trainees. These findings suggest that mindsets related to intelligence, failure, and emotion can influence various dimensions of professional practice.Conclusion: The pilot study demonstrated the potential of We-SMILE as an acceptable and effective practicum training intervention. A larger sample is needed for more comprehensive evaluations.","PeriodicalId":73742,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evidence-based social work (2019)","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144765872","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}

Home visiting (HV) is a promising venue for integrating brief interventions to address perinatal SU. We evaluated a digital screening and brief intervention for SU that is tailored to the HV context (e-SBI-HV).Materials and methods: The e-SBI-HV includes two digital sessions completed confidentially by clients plus home visitor facilitation protocols to promote e-SBI-HV integration into HV. The e-SBI-HV was pilot tested in New Jersey with 20 home visitors and 10 clients. A mixed-methods approach assessed recruitment and implementation feasibility, and program acceptability.Results: Eighty-five clients were referred and 14 enrolled over 2 years. e-SBI-HV completion rates were 90% for digital Session 1, 70% for Session 2, and 72.5% for the facilitation protocols. Average acceptability ratings were 4.03/5.00 for Session 1 and 3.93/5.00 for Session 2. Qualitative interviews with home visitors and clients revealed implementation facilitators and barriers.Discussion: Within the small sample that enrolled, feasibility and acceptability of the e-SBI-HV was supported. However, there were significant challenges reaching the target population. Qualitative interviews provided important feedback for refining the e-SBI-HV to improve reach within the HV setting, including the need for a prevention-oriented focus.Conclusion: While findings support the preliminary feasibility and acceptability of the e-SBI-HV, further research with a larger sample is needed to overcome significant implementation barriers and challenges identified in this study.","PeriodicalId":73742,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evidence-based social work (2019)","volume":" ","pages":"1-25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144710089","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}

Kinship families, who often navigate multiple systems concurrently with higher service needs, were among the most vulnerable. This study explores kinship caregivers' and child welfare professionals' perceptions of changes in service delivery during the pandemic, specifically the sudden shift to virtual platforms.Materials and methods: To understand participants' experiences, focus groups with protocols shaped by initial Delphi Rounds were implemented with 25 kinship caregivers and 34 child welfare professionals from a national sample.Results: Caregiver and professionals shared themes related to how COVID-19 precautions impacted service delivery; kinship families' access to, knowledge, and use of technology; and benefits and challenges for implementing virtual support.Discussion: Based on findings shared by participants, a model illustrating influencing factors for online service delivery was created highlighting technological capital, client factors, provider factors, and service type as key components. Implications of implementing online supports in practice are discussed, including technology access, training in social work education, and future research areas.Conclusion: Despite the many adversities the COVID-19 pandemic presented for professionals and kinship families, this unprecedented time also paved the way for us think differently about service accessibility and the benefits and challenges of online supports, especially in a world that is quickly moving toward automation. Considering both families' and professionals' perspectives is key to integrating virtual supports into the current service delivery landscape in equitable and effective ways.","PeriodicalId":73742,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evidence-based social work (2019)","volume":" ","pages":"1-33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144683671","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 disconnect creates a significant gap between academic training and field realities. The study investigates how Nigerian social workers navigate tensions between professional values and indigenous traditions in their daily practice.Materials and methods: A qualitative approach using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was employed to explore the lived experiences of 15 social workers from schools, hospitals, and community centers in Enugu Metropolis. Data were collected via semi-structured interviews and analyzed thematically to understand how practitioners interpret and respond to cultural influences in their work.Results: Findings reveal that social workers face tensions between global professional ethics and local cultural expectations particularly around family authority, spirituality, communal decision-making, and traditional conflict resolution. Participants described ethical dilemmas including pressure to adopt informal practices such as cutting corners. Nevertheless, many found that culturally rooted approaches enhanced engagement and outcomes in community settings.Discussion and conclusion: The study underscores the need to decolonize Nigerian social work education by incorporating Afrocentric theories, indigenous knowledge systems, and critical reflections on Western models. Recommendations include revising social work curricula, developing culturally responsive ethical guidelines, and promoting advocacy-oriented training. These reforms are essential for producing practitioners who are both ethically grounded and culturally competent, capable of delivering transformative social work within Nigeria's complex cultural landscape.","PeriodicalId":73742,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evidence-based social work (2019)","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144621443","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}

Cultural factors such as male dominance and prioritization of family over individual needs often discourage women from seeking help. The purpose of this study is to examine the personal and environmental limitations of seeking help experienced by Asian American IPV survivors.Methods: We collaborated with two not-for-profit agencies serving Asian American IPV survivors. These agencies, located in large metropolitan areas, surveyed 123 clients in three time periods between 2022 and 2024. Two-thirds of respondents identified as Korean, followed by Mongolian, Chinese, and other ethnicities. The survey included a stigma scale, barriers to accessing the criminal justice system, and open-ended responses.Results: Survivors identified fear of being blamed, feelings of shame, and lack of community support following disclosure as significant barriers to seeking help. In addition, respondents identified barriers to accessing the criminal justice system, including practical barriers (language, cost, and transportation), lack of knowledge about the system and how to contact it, fears about their partner's reaction, getting the abuser in trouble, losing custody of the children, upsetting the extended family, and lack of trust in the system.
