    Notes: Abstract This study compared outcomes over time of persons with severe mental illness who were randomly assigned to capitated and fee for service programs. Data were collected by independent raters and case managers. The effects of capitation on linear trends for symptoms, social conflict and functioning were examined using analysis of covariance and regression. Independent variables were capitation versus fee for service funding and baseline scores on the dependent variables. Covariates were sociodemographic and clinical variables. Persons in capitated programs had slightly better outcomes on two measures: social conflict and global functional level. Initially more disturbed persons had slightly better outcomes under capitation than under fee for service funding on symptoms and social conflict, while less disturbed persons had equal or poorer outcomes. Implications of these findings for program planning and future research are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract A method of estimating the parameters of the normal ogive model for dichotomously scored item-responses by maximum likelihood is demonstrated. Although the procedure requires numerical integration in order to evaluate the likelihood equations, a computer implemented Newton-Raphson solution is shown to be straightforward in other respects. Empirical tests of the procedure show that the resulting estimates are very similar to those based on a conventional analysis of item “difficulties” and first factor loadings obtained from the matrix of tetrachoric correlation coefficients. Problems of testing the fit of the model, and of obtaining invariant parameters are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The authors describe an evaluation of the influences on service access, adequacy, and appropriateness in four capitated public mental health programs. Access, adequacy, and appropriateness were higher than the fee for service programs, suggesting that the financial incentive in capitation was not a significant limiting factor. Access and adequacy were also limited by new program effects as well as by case manager and client preferences.
