Isi artikel

To select an optimum kind of welfare service for children 'at risk', mental health workers need to adequately assess the psychosocial problems of children. This article presents a multiple risk model with which the psychosocial needs of troubled children can easily be assessed in a uniform way. In a Dutch national sample of 275 children placed in welfare programmes the model proved to be sufficiently reliable. The model is used to describe the mean risk profiles of children in five major welfare programmes for children in Holland. The way in which such risk profiles can support the practitioners' selection of welfare programmes for individual children 'at risk' is discussed.
