Worker Tasks and Knowledge Utilization in Group Child Care: First Findings.

Pecora, Peter J.; Ginerich, Wallace J.

Child Welfare, v60 n4 p221-31 Apr 1981

Investigated two main areas: (1) tasks performed by child care workers, group home houseparents, and social workers working in group child care; and (2) knowledge of specific domains (e.g. nutrition, behavioral theories) relevant to performance of those tasks. Results are considered germane to staff training programs, job descriptions, and program development. (Author/DB)
