The differential effects of concurrent planning practice elements on reunification and adoption

Objective: The child welfare practice of concurrent planning attempts to shorten children\u27s stays in foster care. There is very little quantitative research on concurrent planning\u27s effects. This study examines the influence of concurrent planning practice elements (reunification prognosis, concurrent plan, full disclosure, and discussion of voluntary relinquishment) on reunification and adoption. Method: Using a sample of 885 children, an observational design, and statistical controls, children who received concurrent planning elements were compared to those who did not. Results: Findings show discussion of voluntary relinquishment to be positively associated with adoption and full disclosure to be negatively associated with reunification. Conclusions: Concurrent planning\u27s benefits may require more intensive services to be fully realized. Care should be taken to ensure activities achieve their intended effects

Cluster analysis

Trabajo de investigaciónSe desarrolló un Componente Web de Clustering para Análisis de Datos el cual permite ingresar mediante una interfaz web y/o una API un conjunto de datos que son analizados mediante técnicas de clustering, estas técnicas permiten realizar agrupamiento de datos basados en sus características, y así arrojar un resultado que relaciona dichos datos. Lo anterior, busca proveer a la Universidad de una herramienta que permita de manera general, práctica y gratuita, realizar análisis de datos basados en clustering para cualquier estudio de investigación.INTRODUCCIÓN 1.
