The moderating variables of average case load and type of foster care, either regular or kinship, predicted significant variance whereas the measures used to assess difficulty of children served, average age and number of placements did not. Supervisor's political skill and the workers impression of the supervisor's client-centeredness were the other factors which predicted permanency. Supervisor's level of empowerment, empowering behavior, and self-assessment of client-centeredness were not significant predictors. Supervisors education and supervisors management experience, which were examined as surrogates for technical skill, were not significant. Made available in DSpace on 2015-09-28T15:52:08Z (GMT).
