Educational pathways and outcomes for care‐experienced children
Children who are removed from their birth families during childhood—termed care‐experienced—can be at risk for lower educational attainment and poorer school experiences, often linked to deprivation and behavioural factors. However, research often uses aggregated measures that obscure the complexities of care (e.g. timing, and placements) and evidence is needed to understand the factors that could explain the link between care‐experience and atta…
“It’s A Revolving Door!”
Approximately 8.9 million individuals in the United States misused opioids in 2023, reflecting the opioid crisis’s devastating impact not only on individuals but also on their families. This qualitative study examines family members’ experiences in supporting loved ones with opioid use disorder (OUD), focusing on their roles, barriers to treatment, and perspectives on medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). Through in-depth, semi-structured i…
Acceptability and quality of the ‘Grog Survey App’ brief intervention
Children’s early care experiences and their educational attainment
Care-experienced children are at risk of lower educational attainment. Duration of care is related to attainment, as is the type of placement(s) (e.g. foster care). To determine ‘what works’ for care-experienced children, our research examined: i) profiles of children on their care experiences, and ii) how these relate to educational attainment at age seven. Using anonymised, linked records in Wales, United Kingdom, we constructed an e-cohort of …
Impact of Substance Use Terminology on MSW Students
Purpose Despite recognizing substance use-related stigma as a potential primary obstacle to treatment engagement, there is limited evidence investigating the nuanced intersection of stigma with master's level social work (MSW) education. Method We randomly assigned 322 MSW students to read one of two vignettes differing only in terminology describing a character's substance use condition (“substance use disorder” vs. “substance abuser”). Two Like…
Parental risk factors and children entering out-of-home care
Parental difficulties, including mental ill health, substance misuse, domestic violence and learning disability have been associated with children entering out-of-home care. There is also evidence that these issues may co-occur within families. Understanding how the co-occurrence of these difficulties is associated with care entry is complex because they may co-occur in the same or different household members and have different impacts on the lik…
The State of US Health, 1990-2016
Introduction: Several studies have measured health outcomes in the United States, but none have provided a comprehensive assessment of patterns of health by state. Objective: To use the results of the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) to report trends in the burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors at the state level from 1990 to 2016. Design and Setting: A systematic analysis of published studies and available data sources estimates the…
Trauma, Family Factors and the Mental Health of Homeless Adolescents
Families and the Juvenile Justice System
We conducted focus groups with defense lawyers, clinicians, and education advocates to gather their perspectives on families' experiences with the juvenile justice system. Our quantitative descriptive analysis identified a range of themes such as discussions about the poor treatment of families as well as recommendations for a shifting of power to families. These perspectives may provide insights about the context in which families are expected t…
Restoration, Obligation, and the Baseline Problem
Perceived burden in adherence of antiretroviral treatment in rural China
To determine the level of antiretroviral treatment adherence and explore the correlated factors of perceived burden of taking antiretroviral medications among people living with HIV (PLH) in a rural area of China. Data were collected from 66 PLH who were currently receiving antiretroviral treatment. Face-to-face interviews were conducted during August to October, 2009. Approximately 18.2% of participants failed to adhere to antiretroviral treatme…
