Item description from seller

: Este libro explora la evaluación de programas familiares en el contexto del trabajo social moderno. Examina la composición diversa de las familias estadounidenses y los cambios en la crianza de los hijos, temas de intenso escrutinio por investigadores y legisladores. Se abordan tendencias como los cambios demográficos, la creciente incorporación de la mujer al mercado laboral, el embarazo adolescente y la desinstitucionalización de ancianos y enfermos mentales, que han afectado significativamente la vida familiar. La obra tiende un puente entre investigadores y profesionales, ofreciendo consejos prácticos y comprensibles para proveedores de programas familiares, financiadores y legisladores. Se presentan modelos innovadores para la prestación y evaluación de servicios, fomentando la reflexión sobre los aspectos exitosos de los programas y reconociendo las limitaciones tanto de la investigación como de la práctica. Se busca comprender las influencias recíprocas de la familia extensa, la cultura, la comunidad y las instituciones sociales, instando a la comprensión de que no todas las evaluaciones son apropiadas para todos los programas y reconociendo las limitaciones de las tecnologías de evaluación actuales. Se destaca la importancia de considerar a los niños y las familias en su contexto para desarrollar políticas familiares sólidas.

Review

-Evaluating Family Programs, addresses the gap in evaluative research that results when research models do not accurately meet the contextual presuppositions on which programs and services are based... For anyone planning evaluative research on family- and context-oriented programs, the book is important reading.- --Robert T. Constable, Social Work in Education -Evaluating Family Programs, is tightly organized... The authors should be commended for their honest, carefully balanced discussion of decision making, the trade-offs that characterize their evaluation of family programs, and the resultant gains and losses. This book will be a useful tool for students, researchers, and policy planners.- --Suzanne K. Steinmetz, Contemporary Sociology -Evaluating Family Programs, edited by Heather Weiss and Francine Jacobs, comprises 22 chapters written by 27 authors (including three social workers)... The presentations come from researchers, evaluators, and program directors. Practical suggestions about selecting outcome measures and sources of advice and information are included.- --Benjamin Schlesinger, Social Work "Evaluating Family Programs, addresses the gap in evaluative research that results when research models do not accurately meet the contextual presuppositions on which programs and services are based...
