关于青年辅导的概念性和经验性工作自然倾向于侧重于辅导者与儿童之间的关系。然而,父母/监护人和机构的个案工作者也可能有助于辅导干预的成功或失败,和程序的效果可能部分介导的儿童与这些人的互动。本文提出了一个系统的指导模式,描绘了导师,孩子,父母/监护人之间建立的相互依存的网络关系,并对机构的政策和程序的背景下个案工作者。许多例子说明了在这种更全面的指导模式下的影响途径和沟通模式。编辑的战略意义:作者利用生态和系统理论,提供了一个有前途的概念模型,重点关注几个关键个体(但不是唯一可能的个体)之间的人际交流模式。这种模式提醒研究人员和实践者,指导存在于一个相互加强(或抑制)的其他关系网络中。这种系统性的思考对儿童福利机构的政策和做法有影响。
Conceptual and empirical work on youth mentoring naturally tends to focus on the relationship between mentor and child. However, the parent/guardian and agency caseworker also may contribute to the success or failure of the mentoring intervention, and program effects may be partially mediated by the child's interactions with these individuals. This article presents a systemic model of mentoring depicting the interdependent network of relationships established between mentor, child, parent/guardian, and caseworker against the backdrop of agency policies and procedures. Numerous examples illustrate pathways of influence and patterns of communication in the context of this more holistic model of mentoring. Editors' Strategic Implications: Drawing upon ecological and systems theories, the author provides a promising conceptual model that focuses on patterns of interpersonal exchange among several key individuals (but not the only possible ones). This model reminds researchers and practitioners that mentoring resides within a mutually reinforcing (or inhibiting) network of other relationships. This systemic thinking has implications for child welfare agency policies and practices.
