Therapeutic alliance in the clinical practice of social workers with families within the child protection system in Chile
The therapeutic alliance is a key process associated with favorable outcomes in psychotherapy.

It focuses on the parental therapeutic alliance formed with parents or relatives who assume caregiving roles. …
Exploring School Engagement and Academic Outcomes Over Time
School engagement is a multidimensional construct encompassing affective, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions, influenced by contextual factors like family, peer, and teacher support. This longitudinal study examines how these dimensions of school engagement mediate the relationship between contextual factors and academic outcomes—specifically, class attendance and performance in language and mathematics—over 3 years among 284 Chilean students (…

Systematization of the methodology of children and adolescents as co-researchers. The research case on school engagement and contextual factors in Chile
Scientific research involving children and adolescents as members of research teams are relevant, both because of the possibility of giving voice and leading role to this social group and because it constitutes an expressway of exercising the participation rights enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). Increased research involving children and adolescents as co-researchers appears, seeking designs and implementations that sa…
Associations between contextual factors and school engagement
School engagement, encompassing affective, behavioral, and cognitive dimensions, is key to promoting school retention and preventing absenteeism. Previous research has shown that maintaining high engagement is crucial for a positive educational trajectory. This study investigates the individual contributions of contextual factors, including family, teacher, and peer support, on students who initially had a lower level of school engagement in one …

(analytical)More than 30 years after the Convention on the Rights of the Child recognized their right to participate, research continues to be predominantly about children but not carried out with them. This study seeks to contribute to the incorporation of children as producers of knowledge in their schools. It is a longitudinal qualitative study in which 64 children assumed the role of co-researchers on the topic of school engagement. This was …
The therapeutic alliance in context
The therapeutic alliance is among the factors associated with positive results in therapy and has been extensively studied in psychotherapy. However, it has received less attention in social work and family intervention. Considering that such intervention occurs mainly within the framework of institutions and public policies, this article aims to identify the contextual factors that facilitate or hinder the therapeutic alliance between family mem…
Researching with Qualitative Methodologies in the Time of Coronavirus
In late 2020 and the first semester of 2021, in Santiago de Chile, five women researchers who work with qualitative methodologies, based on their reflections on how the context of the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted on their doctoral research or their role as thesis advisors, conducted a reflective exploration of the conditions and challenges for qualitative research amid a global crisis. In this context, they convene once per week to explore how …
Niños y niñas transgéneros
Some children have a gender identity that does not match their anatomical sex. Trangender children are often seen as problematic because they threaten the binary construction of gender embedded in the society. However, rather than a threat, transgender children are part of the human diversity, and make us understand that gender identity is a fluid continuum. The aim of this essay was to explore in the transgender child’s development in light of r…
Métele con candela pa’ que todas las gatas se muevan. Identidades de género, cuerpo y sexualidad en el reggaetón
El estilo musical reggaetón, que ha superado records de venta y de adherentes en el último tiempo, es, sin duda, una expresión de los resabios del machismo latinoamericano más patentes y sorprende que en medio de los avances en materia de género su violencia pareciera pasar inadvertida. Lo anterior, tomando en cuenta los roles de la mujer, del cuerpo y de la sexualidad transmitidos en sus letras, las cuales son aprehendidas por los jóvenes, princ…
Métele con candela pa’ que todas las gatas se muevan. Identidades de género, cuerpo y sexualidad en el reggaetón
The musical style called reggaeton, that has surpassed sales records and followers during the last years, is undoubtedly one of the most characteristic's Latin-American sexism's traces and is quite surprising that, although advances have been achieved in gender equality, its violence seems to be unnoticed. This analysis takes into account the roles of women, the body and sexuality that are transmitted in their lyrics, which are absorbed by young …
