Critical Components in Implementing Evidence‐based Practice: A Multiple Case Study of Individual Placement and Support for People with Psychiatric Disabilities

When developing Community Mental Health Services to support people with psychiatric disabilities, European countries are advocating evidence ‐based practice (EBP ). Individual Placement and Support (IPS ) is an evidence ‐based model designed to support people in acquiring and maintaining competitive employment. Implementation science is a growing research field, with a focus on components that impact the process of implementing EBP programmes. In this multiple case study, we have followed three IPS demonstration sites for two years, in order to describe and analyze barriers and facilitators for implementation, according to constructs described in the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (Damschroder et al. 2009 ). The results highlight the importance of strategic networking, as well as the need for planning and preparations carried out before the start of an EBP programme, since deficiencies related to these constructs are difficult to compensate for.

《三国演义》与韩国传统艺术盘骚俚

《三国演义》在传入韩国之后,逐渐深入人心,成为了韩国人民所喜爱的小说作品。韩民族对于《三国演义》的喜爱并不仅仅停留在阅读和鉴赏的层面上,以《三国演义》的人物和故事情节为底本的《三国演义》派生作品也在韩国开始出版发行。而韩国传统艺术表演形式盘骚俚作品在创作的过程中也同样受到了《三国演义》这一外来文化因子的影响。文化在传递的过程中一经与本土文化结合,就必然发生变异,以一种新的文化形态呈现出来。这是文化传递与变异的基本原理。当《三国演义》与盘骚俚相结合后,也产生了诸如《赤壁歌》这样的文学作品。笔者在本文当中将从文化传递和变异的视角出发,运用原典实证的方法论对《赤壁歌》等韩国盘骚俚作品进行考察,阐释《三国演义》与盘骚俚作品影响关系,以求进一步加深对于盘骚俚作品的理解。     

The Planets Aligned: Is Child Protection Policy Reform Good Luck or Good Management?

Abstract

Governments across Australia are struggling to address escalating child protection notifications, a marked increase in the number of children in State care, a decrease in the number of foster carers and chronic workforce shortages in child welfare services. This paper explores the reform process that culminated in the proclamation of the Victorian Children, Youth and Families Act, 2005 and represents an aspect of the response in Victoria to these wider issues. It explores the history of the reform from the perspective of key actors from government, non-government sectors and academics who participated in the process. The paper explores the “ingredients of social policy reform” and how the change process was managed in Victoria. It does not seek to evaluate the reform but rather to understand the complex processes through which a propitious moment for reform was both seized and constructed.     

Preparation for Contact: An Aid to Effective Social Work Intervention

This article proposes that a pre‐contact phase of work which helps prepare the worker/social work student for face‐to‐face intervention is a prerequisite for effective practice. It builds on the original work by Douglas and McColgan in which preparation for contact was placed in the context of the Diploma in Social Work Competence requirements. In this revised article links are made to the new degree in social work while retaining the framework which provides for examination of essential knowledge, skills and values which underpin effective preparation for a social work encounter. The article discusses the Preparation for Contact exercise and explores its value as a learning tool for social work students, its usefulness as an assessment tool for university tutors and agency practice teachers in relation to testing the student's ‘readiness’ for contact and its place in providing practice learning evidence in relation to requirements of the degree in social work.

证据的可反驳性——对高科技证据材料的防御

由于高科技证据材料所具有的特点,其容易造成在实体方面认识论常规错误的发生,以及程序方面剥夺被追诉人程序权利的危险,有鉴于此,应当在证据能力和证明力之外建立证据＂可反驳性＂的新属性,以防止上述危险进入刑事诉讼程序。     

The review of new evidence 5 years later: SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP)

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) decided that NREPP should offer a second review option for interventions that have already been reviewed and included in the registry for 5 years. Principals from 135 such interventions were invited to participate in a second review, and an exploratory study of the Principals’ responses to this invitation was conducted. The study used a mixed-method approach, quantitatively describing characteristics of Principals and their interventions and qualitatively summarizing feedback from phone interviews with a convenience sample of Principals participating in a second review. Of the Principals invited, 21% accepted a second review, 24% were interested but unable or not ready to submit materials, and 56% did not accept or did not respond. Mental health treatment interventions were more likely to undergo a second review, and substance abuse treatment interventions were less likely. Similar percentages of interventions undergoing a second review had received funding from the National Institutes of Health (86%) and had been evaluated in a comparative effectiveness research study (79%). Overall ratings for interventions improved in each second review completed. The interviewed Principals perceived potentially lower ratings as the only risk in participating in a second review.
