From Father to Child: An Application of the Process-Person-Context-Time Model

This study assumes several overarching goals. The first is to bring the social work profession firmly to the table in the discourse on fathering. A second goal of this study is to place the study of fathering in a theoretical framework that aptly acknowledges and accommodates the complexities of the subject. Applying Bronfenbrenner’s (1995) Process-Person-Context-Time model, a third major goal of this study is to examine more closely what fathers themselves say about fathers and fathering and the implications of their perceptions. This study utilizes a subsample of fathers from a large nationally representative data set to test and expand what we have learned from several smaller qualitative studies of fathers. The findings in this study are convergent with those of previous studies, indicating that time together, communication, and affection appear to be important in determining the quality of the father-child relationship

Cultivating a new harvest: Rational and preliminary results from a growing interdisciplinary rural school mental health program

It is well established that a significant number of young people suffer from mental health concerns at any given time. Yet a substantial proportion of these young people do not receive adequate treatment. Thus, in order to address this gap in health care, schools are now seen as a natural setting in which to provide much-needed services to a significant number of children and adolescents who might otherwise go without intervention. The present study provides a description and informative evaluation of one such school mental health (SMH) initiative in a small rural school district in Western North Carolina. The initiative was assessed in comparison with what is known about the current landscape of SMH programs. Specific aspects of the initiative were discussed that might represent evolving trends in service provision, such as using graduate trainees as therapists, systemic implementation of regular interdisciplinary meetings and addressing the mental health needs of young people in rural areas
