Measuring Worker Cognitions about Parents of Children with Mental and Emotional Disabilities.

Johnson, Harriette C.; And Others

Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, v2 n2 p99-108 Apr 1994

Analysis of an instrument for assessing workers' beliefs about parents of children receiving mental health-related services identified five factors: parent blame, giving information, parent validation, use of psychotropic medications, and parent instruction. Differences in beliefs were revealed among workers who endorsed psychodynamic, family systems, cognitive-behavioral, neuropsychological, or existential-humanistic models. (Author/JDD)
