摘要：
This paper reports the results of a study of decisions by child welfare workers regarding the ideal placement type for 348 children placed in out-of-home care in California. The study examines factors associated with the preference to place a child in treatment foster care or group care as opposed to foster family or kinship care. Child age, behavior problems, and placement history were found to be strong predictors of social worker placement preferences.
