Measure Analysis

A family counseling intervention grounded in systemic family therapy was conducted in a Title I school-based setting with ( N = 48) kindergarten through sixth-grade student-clients and their primary caregivers. Families’ perception of family communication and satisfaction on the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale-IV was investigated to determine changes in the percentile score at three benchmarks. A repeated measure analysis of variance indicated a statistically significant difference over time in caregivers’ perception of family communication and satisfaction after 5 and 10 weeks. There was no difference in relationship to gender. School-based family counseling programs can contribute to improved family communication and satisfaction. School-based counselors can partner with institutions of higher education to provide free and accessible counseling for students and families in the greatest need.

Dispute System

Conflict resolution is a core competency for social workers, and social workers have contributed greatly to this thriving field. Conflict resolution as a field of practice includes mediation, facilitation, conflict coaching, dispute system design and management, and arbitration. Conflict professionals provide preventative, restorative, substantive, procedural, and decision-making services to people in conflict. The use of conflict resolution processes is rapidly growing in areas of traditional social work practice such as child welfare, special education, family counseling, care of the elderly, and medical care. This is a tremendous potential growth area for social work.
