Content validity, aims and risks of self-assessment in centre-based childcare in the Netherlands
Self-assessment is increasingly used in childcare, which requires reflection on its goals and validity. In the current mixed-methods study, we investigated stakeholders’ views on the aims, possible risks and content validity of self-assessment in the context of centre-based childcare (ECEC and afterschool care) in the Netherlands. As part of a sequential strategy, we organised focus groups with stakeholders (Phase 1) to explore expert opinions, f…
Deciding on the order of attachment-based intervention, trauma therapy for parents, and trauma therapy for young children (0–6 years old) in families exposed to intimate partner violence
IPV exposed families with young children (0–6 years) often deal with multiple complex and interrelated problems, including parents’ Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms, children’s PTSD symptoms, and problems in parenting behavior. Current integrative treatment approaches that focus on all these problems within families are lacking. The current study describes the development of a guidance document for therapists, to aid them in tailori…
Studying Voices of Middle Childhood Online
The use of online focus groups is becoming popular as a qualitative research method and the literature available for evaluating this data collection method is useful. However, to the best of our knowledge almost no methodological information is available on synchronous, online video-based focus groups with children of 10-12 years of age. In this article we describe our experiences with a study in which we conducted a total of 13 online synchronou…
Rebutting Existing Misconceptions About Multiple Imputation as a Method for Handling Missing Data
Missing data is a problem that occurs frequently in many scientific areas. The most sophisticated method for dealing with this problem is multiple imputation. Contrary to other methods, like listwise deletion, this method does not throw away information, and partly repairs the problem of systematic dropout. Although from a theoretical point of view multiple imputation is considered to be the optimal method, many applied researchers are reluctant …
Cross-Informant Ratings of Internalizing and Externalizing Behavior in Adolescent–Parent Pairs in Six Countries. Does Being Adopted Make a Difference
Low agreement between self-reports and parent reports of the behavioral adjustment of adolescents has been widely documented in the literature. However, it has been little studied in connection with adoptees. In the current research, the magnitude of agreement between reports of adolescents’ behavioral problems given by the adolescents themselves and their parents and the direction of the possible discrepancies between these reports were studied.…
Cognitive and health-related outcomes after exposure to early malnutrition
Sensitive parenting is the foundation for secure attachment relationships and positive social-emotional development of children
Purpose – The quality of the attachment relationship between children and their parents is important for children's social-emotional development and can have profound consequences for adaptational processes in later life. The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the current knowledge about sensitive parenting and its role in affecting infants’ attachment security, and developmental outcomes of attachment. The authors end with a brief d…
