Surveys & Assessments
All Columbia Health Services parenting education offerings are accompanied by a pre- and post-series survey or assessment. Surveys and assessments look at the knowledge, attitudes, and history of each individual attending. The specific survey or assessment used is determined by the needs of the individual and the goals of the series. Some surveys and assessments that may be used with Columbia Health Services parenting education offerings are:
AAPI 2.1
Adult Adolescent Parenting Inventory- version 2
The AAPI-2.1 is an inventory designed to assess the parenting and child rearing attitudes of adolescents and adult parent and pre-parent populations. Based on the known parenting and child rearing behaviors of abusive parents, responses to the inventory provide an index of risk for practicing behaviors known to be attributable to child abuse and neglect. The AAPI-2.1 is the revised and re-normed version of the original AAPI first developed in 1979. Learn more here.
NSCS 3.0
Nurturing Skills Competency Scale- version 3
The NSCS is an inventory designed to gather information, both past and current, about individuals and their families in order to alert family members as well as professionals about on-going conditions that could lead to: 1. the initial occurrence of child maltreatment; or 2. the recurrence of child maltreatment. Learn more here.
PARTI 1.0
Parenting Attitudes about Raising Teenagers Inventory- version 1
The PARTI is a norm-referenced inventory designed to assess the parenting beliefs of parents and their teens ages 13-18 years. Responses to the PARTI provide parents and their teens an opportunity to compare their beliefs regarding issues that define adolescence. Learn more here.
Results & Interpretation
When interpreting results, Columbia Health Services takes a holistic stance, considering scores, observations, and interactions, plus the shifting context and stressors of an individual's life, knowing full well things beyond an individual's control can influence survey results. CHS practices full transparency with participants and clients by sharing all results and interpretations with the participant, and by requiring a signed Release of Information if results, observations, and interpretations are to be shared with teachers, spouses, caseworkers, advocates, lawyers, judges, and anyone beyond the facilitator/interpreter and individual.
Partnership with Providers
Columbia Health Services parenting education offerings can be used in concert with therapy, treatment programs, recovery programs, and other healing modalities. Facilitators can, within their scope and capacity, work together with other providers to help provide holistic support for participants in a variety of settings. Please ensure all appropriate Releases of Information are signed.
