Children’s Perspectives on Their Living Environment
The social and physical characteristics of neighborhoods significantly impact child development, yet children’s perspectives on their environment are underexplored. Understanding these perceptions provides valuable insights for improving their surroundings. To better understand the living environment of children aged 10–14, a mixed methods systematic review of 31 studies (2002–2025) was conducted, in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. The sea…
Understanding the Transformation of YIM Professionals in Youth Care
The Youth-Initiated Mentor (YIM) approach, an intervention in which elements of both natural mentoring and professional youth care are combined, shows promise in Dutch youth care. However, adopting this approach is challenging for professionals, as it requires a more network-oriented way of working. A YIM professional is a publicly financed youth care practitioner who facilitates the establishment of a mentoring relationship between a young perso…
“They should have just talked to me”
Introduction Youth in residential care (RC) face the highest risk of unfavorable educational outcomes among all out-of-home care (OHC) settings. While some consistent factors are known from previous research, the voices of youth and their caregivers remain largely absent, limiting insight into their unique context and opportunities for meaningful improvement. Methods This participatory qualitative study examined the educational pathways of 26 you…
Family-Centered Attitudes and Actions in Youth Care and Special Education
Safety First! Residential Group Climate and Antisocial Behavior
A systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis was performed (28 studies and 313 effect sizes) on the relation between residential group climate (i.e., safety, atmosphere, repression, support, growth, structure) and antisocial behavior, including aggression and criminal recidivism. A systematic search was conducted in PsychINFO, ERIC, and OVID Medline up to February 2023. Results showed a small but significant association ( r = .20) between res…

Group Climate in Residential Youth Care
Group climate in residential youth care is considered to be essential for treatment of youth and young adults. Various instruments exist to measure quality of living group climate, but some are lengthy, use complicated wording, which make them difficult to fill out by youth and individuals with a mild intellectual disability. The present study describes the development and rationale for the Group Climate Instrument—Revised (GCI-R). Construct vali…
Family‐centred practice and family outcomes in residential youth care
Family‐centred practice (FCP) has been suggested as a best practice for treating youth with emotional and behavioural difficulties in residential care. In this preregistered systematic review, we examined how FCP is operationalized and measured in residential youth care and which family outcomes are associated with FCP. Our systematic search in six databases identified 5784 articles. We analysed included articles by coding the operationalizations…
The development of adolescents in a non-residential alternative educational facility, including the prevention of secure residential placement
This study examined the development of 74 adolescents (13 to 17 years old, 62% boys) after their placement in the non-residential alternative educational facility School2Care, including the prevention of secure residential placement. Results showed that 70% of the adolescents were not placed in a secure residential facility up until six months after leaving the educational facility. Adaptive emotion regulation strategies and feelings of empowerme…
Differences between adolescents in secure residential care and non-residential educational facilities
In this cross-sectional study, we examined differences between 351 adolescents allocated to secure residential youth care and the non-residential alternative educational facility School2Care (12–18 years old, 63% boys). Data were collected by means of the official school registration system and standardized questionnaires. Findings Results showed that adolescents in both settings had severe problems. Emergency situations, problems in daily functi…

Children’s Rights in Secure Residential Youth Care in the Netherlands
This study examines the extent to which secure residential youth care in the Netherlands complies with children’s rights as laid down in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child ( uncrc ) and the Dutch Youth Act. Residential group climate was measured with the Prison Group Climate Instrument ( pgci ), which assesses quality of group care from the perspective of the three basic needs for human self-determination: contact, autonomy …
Differences between boys and girls in perceived group climate in residential youth care
The aim of the present study was to examine differences in perceived living group climate between boys and girls in a sample of 344 youth (68.6% male, M age = 16, SD = 1.58) receiving residential youth care in the Netherlands. Participants filled out self-report measures on living group climate. Results of multilevel regression models indicated that girls in non-correctional facilities experienced living group climate most positively, and girls i…
What Do Parents Expect in the 21st Century? A Qualitative Analysis of Integrated Youth Care
Parental perspectives were clustered into six key components: a holistic, family-centred approach; addressing a broad range of needs in a timely manner; shared decision making; interprofessional collaboration; referral; and privacy. Parents emphasized the importance of a tailored, family-centred approach, addressing needs across several life domains, and active participation in their own care process. However, they simultaneously had somewhat opp…
The outcome of non-residential youth care compared to residential youth care
This multilevel meta-analysis compared the outcomes of Treatment Foster Care Oregon for Adolescents (TFCO-A) and home-based treatment programs (HBT) with residential youth care for children and youth aged 0 to 23 years. A total of 145 effect sizes for different types of behavioral problems were derived from 24 controlled studies (n = 16,943 participants). A three-level random-effects meta-analysis was conducted. We found a small statistically sig…
Differences between adolescents who do and do not successfully complete their program within a non-residential alternative education facility
In this retrospective longitudinal study we examined which characteristics of 114 Dutch adolescents, aged 12–18 years, and their environment, predicted (un)successful completion of a non-residential alternative educational program for adolescents with complex problems, who are at risk for school drop-out or residential placement. The adolescents received care and education in a non-residential alternative educational facility (School2Care) for a …
Effectiveness of an attachment‐based intervention for the assessment of parenting capacities in maltreating families
Even though Parenting Capacity Assessments (PCAs) are essential for child protection services to support placement decisions for maltreating families, presently no evidence‐based PCA protocols are available. In this randomized controlled trial, we tested the quality of an attachment‐based PCA protocol based on Video‐feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP‐SD). We recruited 56 parent‐child dyads ( M age c…

Repression in Residential Youth Care
Repression in residential youth care institutions can manifest itself openly in coercive measures or may be concealed in staff behavior that is endemic to residential youth care, such as soft power and strict behavioral control (i.e., structure), which threatens rehabilitative goals and might even violate children’s rights. To increase awareness of particularly the more hidden aspects of repression, this qualitative study follows the framework me…

Does punishment in secure residential youth care work? An overview of the evidence
Purpose – Violence is a common problem in secure residential units for young people. Group workers often think that young people have to learn to behave by means of punishment. The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether this approach is effective in these settings, and, if so, under what circumstances. Furthermore, it aims to provide alternatives to punishment when dealing with violence. Design/methodology/approach – Recent evidence on t…

Live metaphor
Live metaphor embraces living thought, developing consciousness and emergent awareness. Mundane literalness achieves none of these. We have applied Ricoeur's theory of ‘live metaphor’ (P. Ricoeur. 1975. La Métaphore vive. Paris: Seuil (Translated 1978 as: The rule of metaphor. Toronto: University of Toronto Press; London: Routledge)) to story-telling research in an effort to reveal the continuum between work-place stories and metaphors. The story…

Characteristics of Children in Foster Care, Family-Style Group Care, and Residential Care
When risky child and family circumstances cannot be resolved at home, (temporary) 24-h out-of-home placement of the child may be an alternative strategy. To identify specific placement risks and needs, care professionals must have information about the child and his or her family, care history, and social-cultural characteristics at admission to out-of-home care. However, to date information on case characteristics and particular their similariti…
