Risk and safety assessment in child welfare: instrument comparisons.
The assessment of risk is a critical part of child welfare agency practice. This review of the research literature on different instruments for assessing risk and safety in child welfare focuses on instrument reliability, validity, outcomes, and use with children and families of color.

METHODS We used a case-control design involving the comparison of 67 female subjects with a hist...
متن کاملComparisons of Cashflow Maps for Value-at-risk
This article is devoted to the study cashflow maps used in the computation of value-at-risk (VaR). Properties and characteristics of the approaches found in the literature are presented and two new approaches are introduced. The goal of this paper is to study the quality of these maps. This is done by calculating the risk induced by the difference between the mapped cashflows and the original one.
متن کاملA Note on the Comparisons among Coherent Systems
Using the concept of system signature introduced by Samaniego (1985), Kochar et al. (1999) compared the lifetimes of the systems in which the lifetimes of the components are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables. Their results are extended to the systems with exchangeable components by Navarro et al. (2005). This paper gives some alternative proofs to obtain th...
متن کاملMolecular Comparisons
As soon as an abnormal globin was found to cause sickle cell disease, scientists began looking for other variations. Samples were readily available from donors or from blood samples collected for medical tests. Within a few years, many alterations were identified; some changed the alpha globin amino acid sequence and others altered the beta chain. Most of the new alleles were named for the loca...
