The purpose of this study was to examine two assessment scales in U.S.A., the meaning of assessment, issues on the possibility of its application to Japanese cases. From 80's, assessment scales and recording forms have been used for assist by child welfare workers in determining the most critical risk factors and what services for children and families are needed to alleviate their risk. Following the court procedure, two types of assessment scales are discussed. These scales are useful as the practice framework for protection of children. Most assessment scales consist of various factors, such as the incident of maltreatment, the child(s), the parent(s), the family, the environment, the interactions between the parent(s) and the social agency. Considaring differences between the States and Japan, I focus on several factors in assessment scales that may be appropriate paticulary for Japanese cases. Reliability and validity of these assessment scales have not been established yet. However, some these scales should be useful for understanding of child abuse cases by both social workers and inter-agencies.
