本文介绍了一个基于流程图的方法来描述运动的寄养青年和不同类型和持续时间的位置。这种纵向方法设计得足够简单，以吸引那些试图绘制青年群体随时间推移的流动情况及其安置顺序的政策制定者和管理者，并具有足够的描述性，以供那些试图预测寄养青年分组的安置轨迹的研究人员使用。本文提供了一个例子，使用的方法，从一个大型的研究，位于俄勒冈州的寄养青少年和青春期的青少年在国家行政数据。研究人员，政策制定者和管理人员感兴趣的不同问题的方法的应用的影响进行了讨论。
This paper introduces a flowchart-based methodology for describing the movement of foster youth in and out of placements of differing types and durations. This longitudinal methodology is designed to be sufficiently simple to appeal to policymakers and administrators seeking to chart the movement of groups of youth over time and the sequencing of their placements, and sufficiently descriptive to be of use to researchers seeking to predict the placement trajectories of subgroups of foster youth. The paper provides an example of the use of the method drawing upon state administrative data from a large study of preadolescent and adolescent youth in foster care situated in Oregon. Implications for the application of the methodology to different issues of interest to researchers, policymakers, and administrators are discussed.
