Special Issue of Adoption Quarterly
Promoting Children's Rights and Protections in Program Evaluation
The Nuremberg Code established ethics for the involvement of humans in research, initially in the area of health and medical research. While aspects of the code have been extended to the social and behavioral sciences, program evaluation does not always implement those policies, procedures, and protocols for protecting research participants, particularly children. Drawing on a children's rights framework and highlighting participatory and trauma-…

The perceptions of young adult adoptees in India on their emotional well-being
This article presents the findings of a study of 46 adults adopted at very young ages in India and now aged between 20 and 30 years. The results suggest that the majority of respondents were physically healthy and well adjusted. However, 40% scored below the norm for social functioning, suggesting some underlying issues associated with poor well-being in their current phase of life. The mental health issues affecting the young people were associa…
Race and bicultural socialization in the Netherlands, Norway, and the United States of America in the adoptions of children from India
A cross-national sample of 622 internationally adopted children from India with White parents in The Netherlands (n = 409), Norway (n = 146), and the United States (n = 67) was used to contrast country-specific bicultural socialization (BCS) practices among families of transracial intercountry adoption. The 3 countries vary in their degrees of minority (US > Netherlands > Norway) and Indian populations (US > Norway > Netherlands). The current stu…
Adoption Policy and Evidence‐based Domestic Adoption Practice
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), The Hague Convention on the Protection of Children and Co‐operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption (The Hague Permanent Bureau, 1993), and the Guidelines for the Alternative Care of Children (2009) have provided a comprehensive, rights‐based framework and guidance for developing domestic adoption and alternative, family based care programs. Domestic adoption is a critical compo…

Data from several receiving countries are explored to identify co…
The Adoptive Family Within the Romanian Cultural Context

In an effort to improve the Romanian knowledge base on domestic adoption, a series of studies of domestic adoption have been conducted. Using a mixed-methods strategy, this article presents results from one study of 39 domestic Romanian adoptions. Results highlight…

Coming Out of the Closet
Gay men and lesbians often encounter barriers when they pursue adoption. Adoption workers are expected to make decisions regarding child placement using the best interest standard. However, this decision-making model does not adequately consider intrapersonal, interpersonal, and organizational factors that affect the use of the standard. This article examines the best interest standard and makes practice recommendations to increase the accessibil…
Empowerment in difficulty

Implementing such an approach brings its own challenges, and the authors debate the possibilities and potential pitfalls. They identify key principles and essential personal qualities for putting empowerment into practice in situations of economic, political and social difficulty
Romanian Adoptees
Two groups of children are described, some adopted out of their country of origin and some adopted in their own country.
