The perceptions and judgments of social workers who interview the child and family are especially significant factors in child abuse assessment process. The current study describes and compares child protection workers' assessment processes in Korea and the USA through the use of case vignettes and in-depth interview. The responses from social workers in these two countries were compared and discussed in the areas of: risk assessment; perception of the main problems; tolerance of corporal punishment; and judgments about appropriateness of interventions. Most revealing was that Korean social workers determined abuse based on their child abuse definition and the US Army FAP social workers determined abuse based on their definition, which was affected by legal standards and cultural differences. Korean social workers are more likely to remove a child from the home, even in mild cases, but US FAP social workers would recommend child removal from the home as a last option. The social workers that participated in this survey play a vital role in the safety of children in child protective services. Both countries can benefit from sharing information to improve the child protection services delivered. Social workers' professional judgment leads to objective and consistent outcomes and are less likely to compromise child safety in the decision making process. Language: en

美国和韩国儿童虐待风险评估的比较研究

采访儿童和家庭的社会工作者的看法和判断是虐待儿童评估过程中特别重要的因素。当前的研究通过案例小插曲和深入访谈来描述和比较韩国和美国儿童保护工作者的评估过程。对这两个国家社会工作者的反应进行了比较和讨论,涉及的领域包括:风险评估;对主要问题的认识;容忍体罚;以及对干预措施适当性的判断。最具启发性的是,韩国社会工作者根据虐待儿童的定义确定虐待,而美国陆军 FAP 社会工作者根据他们的定义确定虐待,这受到法律标准和文化差异的影响。韩国社会工作者更有可能将孩子从家中带走,即使是在轻微的情况下,但美国 FAP 社工建议将孩子从家中带走作为最后的选择。参与本次调查的社会工作者在儿童保护服务中的儿童安全方面发挥着至关重要的作用。两国都可以从信息共享中受益,以改善所提供的儿童保护服务。社会工作者的专业判断导致客观和一致的结果,并且不太可能在决策过程中危及儿童的安全。语言:zh 两国都可以从信息共享中受益,以改善所提供的儿童保护服务。社会工作者的专业判断导致客观和一致的结果,并且不太可能在决策过程中危及儿童的安全。语言:zh 两国都可以从共享信息中受益,以改善所提供的儿童保护服务。社会工作者的专业判断导致客观和一致的结果,并且不太可能在决策过程中危及儿童的安全。语言:zh
