TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - A longitudinal causal analysis of impact made by collaborative engagement and service receipt on likelihood of substantiated re-report JO - Child maltreatment A1 - Cheng, Tyrone C. A1 - Lo, Celia C. SP - 258 EP - 267 VL - 20 IS - 4 N2 - In a temporal-ordering causal analysis, we explored impacts of parent's receipt of services and caseworker-parent collaborative engagement on substantiated child maltreatment re-report. Our sample of 2,368 parents came from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being. Using generalized estimating equations, we found likelihood of substantiated re-report to drop significantly in association with collaborative engagement, length of current in-home spell, and family income. In turn, parental alcohol dependence, initial substantiated sexual maltreatment, and prior in-home spells were linked to increased likelihood. Practice implications are discussed.
