The structure and methodological quality of randomised controlled trials addressing school absenteeism and dropout in children and adolescents
The construct components of self-regulation from a systematic review of self-regulation measures in children and adolescents
Inconsistent terminology and the selection of measurement tools create challenges in assessing self-regulation in children and adolescents. Available measures often result in incomplete evaluations, hindering a full understanding of children’s self-regulation. This systematic review examined tools used to assess self-regulation in individuals aged 1–18, aiming to identify key components within cognitive, behavioural and emotional domains of self-…
Exploratory analysis of inter-connected factors related to secondary school absenteeism
Secondary school absenteeism in the UK arises from complex, interconnected issues within and beyond school systems, making it difficult for some pupils to attend full-time. This study adopted an ecosystemic approach to examine factors related to pupils' absence from caregivers’ perspectives. Caregivers ( N = 198) completed online surveys. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine how school participation, absenteeism, pupil …
Psychometric Validation of the Independent Living Skills Measure for Care-Experienced Young People
Purpose This study addressed the need for a psychometrically validated independent living skills measure for care-experienced young people. Existing instruments lack adequate validation and do not reflect the diverse developmental and contextual realities of out-of-home care. Method An initial pool of 193 items was refined to 42 through expert review and pilot testing with young people aged 14 to 25 years. The measure was administered to 122 care…
Interventions to Improve Connectedness, Belonging, and Engagement in Secondary Schools
School connectedness, belonging, and engagement are linked to improved academic, social, and emotional outcomes, yet no prior systematic review or meta-analysis has synthesised interventions targeting these constructs in secondary schools. This review evaluated randomised controlled trials identified through systematic searches of CINAHL, Medline, ERIC, and PsycINFO (last searched: June 2024). Studies included school-based interventions measuring…
I Don't Think I Would've Survived Without Having a Constant Support System
For care‐experienced young people, the preparation for leaving out‐of‐home care (OOHC) is vital in support of post‐OOHC outcomes. This research explores the acquisition of Independent Living Skills (ILS) amongst young people in Western Australia and is based on interviews with care‐experienced young people at two time points: while in OOHC and after leaving OOHC. Overall, 72% of participants were female, 45% had a disability and 45% identified as…
A mixed methods evaluation of the breastfeeding memory aide CHINS
Breastfeeding rates remain persistently low in the United Kingdom (UK) despite wide-scale rollout of UNICEF Baby Friendly Initiative training and accreditation. More must be done to ensure breastfeeding practitioners can provide effective support. The memory aide CHINS (Close, Head free, In-line, Nose to Nipple and Sustainable) could help practitioners remember, recall, and apply breastfeeding theory in practice and this paper presents a UK evalu…
Understanding factors that impact the acquisition of Independent Living Skills among young people transitioning from Out-of-Home Care
Independent Living Skills (ILS) are conceptualised via eight interconnected ILS domains. • Overall, the ILS measure and domain scores were higher for the left-care group, except for the Health Risk Management and Managing Relationships domains, which were higher in the in-care group. • Self-determination positively predicted the overall ILS measure score and six out of eight ILS domain scores. • A young person’s care status positively predicted t…
A systematic review of functional numeracy measures for 9–12 -year-olds
A latent profile analysis of emotional, behavioral, and social problems among victims of bullying
Previous research, using a variable‐centered approach, points out to the possibility that not all victims of bullying have the same mental health and social profile. The aim of the current investigation was to explore whether there are different profiles—related to emotional, behavioral, and social problems—of pure victims of bullying and bully‐victims, respectively, by using a person‐centered approach. The analytical sample consisted of 224 chil…
A Systematic Review on Evaluating Responsiveness of Parent- or Caregiver-Reported Child Maltreatment Measures for Interventions
Aims: Child maltreatment (CM) is a global public health and social problem, resulting in serious long-term health and socioeconomic consequences. As parents are the most common perpetrators of CM, parenting interventions are appropriate strategies to prevent CM. However, research on parenting interventions on CM has been hampered by lack of consensus on what measures are most responsive to detect a reduction in parental maltreating behaviours aft…
The Long Shadow of Intimate Partner Violence
Ongoing health issues influence the postseparation lives of survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV). This study identified associations between health following IPV and demographic, housing, employment, and social participation factors. Survivors of IPV in Australia were surveyed. Logistic regression assessed factors of interest with physical and mental health conditions. Six hundred and fifty-eight women participated. Physical health issues…
Developing and using matrix methods for analysis of large longitudinal qualitative datasets in out-of-home-care research
Managing and analysing large qualitative datasets pose a particular challenge for researchers seeking a consistent and rigorous approach to qualitative data analysis. This paper describes and demonstrates the development and adoption of a matrix tool to guide the qualitative data analysis of a large sample (N = 122) of interview data. The paper articulates the theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of the matrix analysis tool and how it was dev…
A Systematic Review Evaluating Psychometric Properties of Parent or Caregiver Report Instruments on Child Maltreatment
The Effectiveness of Protection Orders in Reducing Recidivism in Domestic Violence
Preventing and reducing domestic violence is a national and international social priority. Civil law protection orders (POs) have been the primary legal response to domestic violence internationally for a number of decades. However, evidence of their effectiveness is mixed due to variations in application within and across countries and variable quality of the research with most studies at high risk of bias. The purpose of this systematic review …
A Systematic Review Evaluating Psychometric Properties of Parent or Caregiver Report Instruments on Child Maltreatment
Research protocol of a multifaceted prospective mixed-method longitudinal study
Navigating Through Life exemplifies a novel utilisation of multiple data sources to research outcomes for vulnerable and difficult to reach populations, and offers insights for other complex mixed-methods longitudinal studies. Results will provide new and more comprehensive data about specific pathways that may be influential to a range of post-care outcomes. Findings will extend evidence to inform better service-delivery models that improve outc…
Larrikins? Wowsers? Hipsters? Snags? What does it mean to be a 'real man' in modern-day Australia
Gender is constructed from social and cultural meanings that dynamically shift and vary. Previous work has assumed that the constructions of masculinity in Australia are like those in other Western societies, and typically focus on qualities such as physical strength, courage and sometimes military engagement. This study explores whether these assumptions hold, by conducting telephone interviews among 617 Queensland men, aged 18 years and above, …
Formal intergenerational mentoring at Australian Men's Sheds
Intergenerational mentoring enables a purposeful exchange of skills and knowledge to enhance individual and social outcomes for sub-groups at risk of health and social disparities. Male intergenerational mentoring may be an approach to help address these disparities in young men. Over 1000 Men's Sheds operate in Australia with 39% providing some form of mentoring mainly to youth. Yet, little is known about the variables intrinsic to creating and …
Community-based Men's Sheds
Males experience greater mortality and morbidity than females in most Western countries. The Australian and Irish National Male Health Policies aim to develop a framework to address this gendered health disparity. Men's Sheds have a distinct community development philosophy and are thus identified in both policies as an ideal location to address social isolation and positively impact the health and wellbeing of males who attend. The aim of this i…
Men's Sheds
The health of Australian men has recently received greater attention. Men's Sheds are named in national policy as an exemplar community-based organisation for the betterment of men's psychosocial health; yet, the evidence base to support this is limited. This study investigates the comparative experience of men with long-term disabilities and men without long-term disabilities who go to a Men's Shed and to what extent this provides these men with…

Mentoring at Men's Sheds
Men's Sheds are named within the Australian and Irish National Male Health Policies as an exemplar of male health and well-being and offer a range of formal and informal mentoring to counter the known consequences of social exclusion. The study aimed to report on whether Men's Sheds undertake mentoring programmes, and if so, who is being mentored; are mentors being trained, and if so by whom; and the perceived effectiveness of the mentoring progr…
