Fidelity and influencing factors in the Systemic Practice Model of children's social care in Finland

2020

Given that multiple countries have recently adopted social work practice models in children’s services, it is striking that only a few studies have systematically analysed both the level of fidelity and potential implementation barriers and facilitators. The aim of this study is to provide an in-depth analysis of how and why the Reclaiming Social Work (RSW) model works in different settings. The study context was the implementation in Finland of an adaptation of the model, the Systemic Practice Model (SPM). This mixed-methods study evaluates 1) fidelity to the SPM and 2) the possible influencing factors. The results reveal high variability in the extent of fidelity in 23 implementation site…

Psykologia ja lastensuojelupolitiikka Unkarissa 1956 jälkeen

2014

Sosialistisessa Itä-Euroopassa tapahtui Stalinin kuoleman jälkeen tiedepoliittinen suunnanmuutos, johon kuului myös aikaisemmin ideologisista ja poliittisita syistä leimatun psykologian rehabilitoituminen. Unkarissa psykologian kenttä aktivoitui vuoden 1956 kansannousun jälkeen osana János Kádárin (1956-1989) paternalistista sosiaali- ja hyvinvointipolitiikkaa. Tuomas Laine-Frigren tarkastelee artikkelissaan miten etenkin lastensuojelun ja kasvatuksen kentät tarjosivat psykologeille mahdollisuuksia profiloitua sosialistisen yhteiskunnan rakentajina ja uudistajina. peerReviewed

A lattice of participation: reflecting on examples of children's and young people's collective engagement in influencing social welfare policies and …

2014

The article introduces four case studies from Wales, France and Finland and explores the situated, intergenerational and dynamic nature of collective participation in child welfare settings.

The case studies represent a range of forms of collective engagement and highlight some key resources which supported children's participation (communicative spaces, time, money, knowledge, social position, attitudes, social networks, institutional commitment, equipment, food and transport).

Fathers’ narratives on support and agency : a case study of fathers in a Finnish child welfare NGO

2017

In Finland, one of the Nordic countries, shared parenting is widely supported through, e.g. family policies and legislation. This is also evident in daily parental practices, as fathers’ share in childcare has increased notably since the late 1980s. Unfortunately, this is not the whole picture of Finnish and Nordic fatherhood: practitioners in child welfare also encounter many fathers with various problems in parenting and life management. In this article, we examine the narratives of fathers who have sought and received support from a Finnish nationwide child welfare NGO. Our research question is: What types of narratives on seeking and receiving support and on their agency do fathers prod…
