What can be done to protect and help them? \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  A key element of informed decision making is knowing what sort of problems are amenable to what sort of intervention, in what circumstances, and with what degree of certainty. Effective Interventions for Child Abuse and Neglect provides a thorough and detailed review of the available research, and makes suggestions as to how this evidence can be incorporated into professional child protection work. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  Geraldine Macdonald first considers the range of evaluative tools available, with illustrations from existing research studies and reviews, and appraises their respective merits and limitations. She then describes the interplay of a range of causal factors in abuse and neglect, and considers different types of maltreatment and their potential consequences. Evidence for effective preventative and therapeutic measures are considered next, followed by a final section on accurate assessment and the use of formal tools in risk management.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAcknowledgments.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e About the Author.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Introduction.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e EVIDENCE-BASED POLICY AND PRACTICE.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Evaluating Effectiveness.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Particular Challenges in Child Protection Research.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Evidence-based Practice.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e CHILD MALTREATMENT.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Factors Associated with Child Maltreatment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Types of Maltreatment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Consequences of Maltreatment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Primary Prevention.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Secondary Prevention.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Tertiary Prevention.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Helping Children who have been Abused or Neglected.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Work with Sex Offenders.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e ASSESSMENT AND EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Challenges to Evidence-based Assessment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Strategies to Support Evidence-based Assessment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Risk Assessment and Decision-Making.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e References.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52293492113688,"sku":"9780471491477","price":49.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471491477.jpg?v=1781642146","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/effective-interventions-for-child-abuse-and-neglect-an-evidence-based-approach-to-planning-and-evaluating-interventions-paperback-softback-9780471491477","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
