The ProGrid® approach overcomes the pitfalls by using a rubric 2 methodology. Their assessment process is used extensively in the science and technology grant-making business3 where a grant application often reflects no more than "a glint in the eye" of an applicant and which contains no quantitative factors which can be measured with numeric ratings. The ProGrid process relies instead on a matrix containing the assessment criteria and a set of "Language Ladders(TM)" which themselves contain the measurements.
Once the assessment is completed, the reports are accumulated in a database so that any individual with "permitted" access mig...

Court-ordered assessments by independent mental health professionals play an important role in the resolution of child welfare cases. There are, however, significant concerns about their use, including: the delay that may result from an assessment; a shortage of qualified assessors; and lack of supervision and standards in the assessment field. This paper is based on an unpublished Report prepared with government support that reviewed literature and jurisprudence on forensic child welfare assessments, and surveyed Ontario judges, lawyers, social workers and assessors on their experiences and concerns with these assessments. The Report made recommendations for short-term changes in regulations and practice in Ontario, and the paper discusses the government response to these recommendatio...

Several researchers have examined the link between childhood maltreatment and DSH. Theoretically, childhood maltreatment is linked to the persistence of perceiving the self as a victim ([Christine Wekerle], Miller, Wolfe & Spindel, 2006). In this regard, DSH may constitute a form of self-victimization, which could arise from an individual acting out caregiver-to-child injury or failing to be selfprotecting and self-nurturing. One might speculate that the former would be more likely related to invasive maltreatment (e.g., physical or sexual abuse) and the latter more passive maltreatment (e.g., neglect). The extant literature suggests that maltreatment is a correlate of self-harm in both clinical and nonclinical samples. For example, [Gratz] (2006) found that childhood maltreatment w...

This study draws on the Theory of Planned Behaviour to examine the role of gender in the decision to be mentored. Contrary to expectations, men and women employ similar decision criteria in the decision to seek a mentor. The primary driver for seeking a mentor was to obtain psychosocial support, including personal support, acceptance, having a confidant, being trusted and friendship. Men were more likely than women to seek a mentor when they valued increased autonomy. The implications of the findings for protégés, mentors and career development professionals are noted.

This study investigates the inter- and intra-comparison of life and work values held by managerial employees working in large and well-established organisations in Singapore. Three groups of workers, namely the Singaporean Chinese, Japanese expatriates and PRC Chinese expatriates were surveyed to measure life and work values and job satisfaction. Our findings have demonstrated that there are significant variations in the life values and work values amongst the three nationalities. However, the Japanese and PRC Chinese expatriates shared similar life values, thus exemplifying the effects of Confucian Dynamism. At the intra-level, differences in the occupational level exert little influence on the life values of the three national samples and the work values of the Singaporeans; differenc...
