Which placement status was the most common?

Journal Article Excerpt 2 The authors studied 113 foster placements to examine how parental access affects the foster child. A qualitative analysis of the written accounts offered by social workers yielded four distinct visiting patterns: Regular and Frequent, Regular but Infrequent, Infrequent, and No Access Using chi square, the authors determined whether there was a quantitative relationship between the variables Placement status and Visiting patterns. Analysis of the categorical data showed a statistically significant relationship between visiting patterns and placement outcome. This relationship, however, was not based on how visiting related to Successful or Crisis placements. Instead it was evident that those placements categorized as Ambiguous were far more likely to report Infrequent visiting patterns.
