文摘
Concept Mapping (CM) can be a valuable tool for planning and evaluation procedures of foster parent mentor programs. CM inherently allayed challenges to program development explicitly identified in the literature. CM seemed to be easily understood by foster parents in this study, which is consistent with previous studies. CM data outputs provided easily interpretable data for foster parent mentor program developers/managers/administrators.
