Abstract

Technology and Big Data are exciting tools that can be leveraged to help translate research into practice. We partnered with a government agency to conduct psychologically informed algorithm development to identify and connect vulnerable mothers to home-based intervention programs. The algorithm ultimately predicted 30% of the variance in program eligibility.
