El objetivo del presente artículo es identificar los factores que influyen en el éxito y el fracaso del programa de preservación familiar de Bizkaia, dirigido a mejorar el funcionamiento familiar y a evitar la implementación de medidas de separación en casos de riesgo de desprotección grave con expediente abierto en la Diputación Foral de Bizkaia. Para ello, se utiliza una metodología cualitativa, a través de dos grupos de discusión conformados por profesionales de protección a la infancia. El análisis de contenido de ambos grupos se ha llevado a cabo con el apoyo del programa informático ATLAS-Ti. Los resultados obtenidos ponen de manifiesto cómo los profesionales consideran que el éxito de las intervenciones del programa de preservación familiar reside fundamentalmente en variables relacionadas con los progenitores, y no tanto con las de los niños, niñas y adolescentes, ni con las del proceso de intervención., The aim of this paper is to identify the factors that influence the success and failure of Biscay’s family preservation programme, aimed at improving family functioning and preventing the implementation of separation measures in cases of risk of serious vulnerability for which a file has been opened at the Biscay Regional Council. To this purpose, a qualitative methodology was used, through two focus groups comprised of child protection professionals. The content analysis of both groups was carried out with the ATLAS.ti software programme. The results obtained show how professionals believe that the success of the interventions of the family preservation lies primarily on parent-related variable, and not so much on those for children and adolescents, or for the intervention process.

Sweden is known as a social welfare state, whereby the people who reside in Sweden are entitled to certain public benefits at little or no cost to the individual. Over the past century, Sweden has reshaped its culture, growing from one of the poorest nations in Europe to a flourishing country that others emulate, especially with respect to their family policies. Sweden has developed several foundational family policies that have helped to encourage equality, while establishing a sense of individuality. Sweden has created similar rights for cohabiters/married couples, as well as for same-sex/opposite-sex couples. Parents receive a generous parental leave package, flexible employment choices, and there is a low gender wage gap, while children receive high-quality childcare, free health care, free dental care, free mental health services, and a substantial child welfare program. Swedish family policies encourage both parents to work and to help each other with household and childcare tasks. Despite the public benefits that Sweden provides for mothers, fathers, and children, there is still a need for further improvements regarding policies on domestic violence, poverty, and child welfare. Assessments of Sweden’s family policies are discussed.

Parental training is recognized as an appropriate strategy for the promotion of positive parenting in order to optimize the global development of children. However, knowledge about critical elements needed to enhance the success of parenting training is still limited, and few studies have confirmed, in a systematic way, the benefits of such interventions. In that sense, it is important to foster assessment studies that may document and validate the efficacy of such interventions. This study used qualitative methods in order to characterize and evaluate the effects of three different parental interventions that included 21low socio-economical level mothers / fathers. Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with each participant, which were subsequently analyzed in terms of content. The results suggest that parents appreciated the contents of the interventions, and evidence change in parental ideas, behaviors and capacity to manage the behavior of their children. The authors conclude that parenting interventions, even in adverse contexts, provide a significant contribution in the short term, by increasing the educational competence and well-being of participating parents. The contribution of qualitative evaluations to understanding the results obtained from interventions and to analyze some dimensions of the programs aiming to plan for new interventions is highlighted., A formação parental é reconhecida como uma estratégia adequada para a promoção da parentalidade positiva, de forma a optimizar o desenvolvimento integral da criança. Contudo o conhecimento sobre quais os elementos críticos necessários para tornar a formação parental bem sucedida, é ainda limitado, sendo poucos os estudos que confirmam, de forma sistemática, os benefícios da formação parental. Neste sentido, importa desenvolver e promover estudos de avaliação que possam fundamentar e documentar a eficácia dessas intervenções. Este estudo utilizou métodos qualitativos para caracterizar e avaliar os efeitos de três intervenções de formação parental com 21 mães/pais de meios socioeconómicos desfavorecidos. Foram realizadas entrevistas individuais semi-estruturadas, procedendo-se de seguida à análise do seu conteúdo. Os resultados evidenciam a satisfação dos pais com os conteúdos das intervenções, e mudanças ao nível das ideias e comportamentos parentais e da capacidade de gestão do comportamento dos seus filhos. Conclui-se que as intervenções na parentalidade, mesmo em contextos de adversidade, asseguram uma contribuição significativa a curto prazo, no sentido de um aumento da competência educativa e bem-estar das mães e pais participantes. Salienta-se o contributo das avaliações de tipo qualitativo para a compreensão dos resultados obtidos nos pais, e para a análise de algumas dimensões dos próprios programas, com vista à planificação de novas intervenções.

Domácí násilí patří k tématům, kterým je v posledních letech věnováno u nás více pozornosti. Za domácí násilí považujeme všechny druhy fyzického, sexuálního a psychického násilí ve všech typech intimních vztahů. I když se může zdát, že takových témat, která by si zasloužila naši pozornost, je celá řada, domácí násilí se v posledních letech stalo tak častou zakázkou krizových pracovišť, že považuji za vhodné dát mu výjimečné postavení. Pozitivním úkazem posledních let je fakt, že s problémem týrání a zneužívání má odvahu vyhledat stále více lidí. Jistě je to osvětou, ale také proto, že vzniká více míst, kam s tímto problémem je možné přijít a obdržet adekvátní pomoc., Domestic violence is one of the topics that in recent years devoted more attention to us. For domestic violence, we consider all types of physical, sexual and psychological violence in all types of intimate relationships. Although it may seem that such issues, which would deserve our attention are numerous domestic violence in recent years become part of the contract so critical sites that I consider it appropriate to give it a unique position. A positive phenomenon in recent years is that the problem of torture and abuse has the courage to search for more people. Sure it's raising awareness, but also because there is more places where this problem can come and receive adequate assistance., Katedra věd o výchově

Full Text, Thesis (PhD Doctorate), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), School of Psychology, The prevalence of conduct problems in children impacts upon families, educational settings, and broader society within Australia. Conduct problems develop early in an individual's life and can lead to more serious problems including substance abuse and delinquency in adolescence and adulthood. Given the high incidence of conduct problems in children, the need for prevention and early intervention strategies to target the onset and development of this phenomenon is paramount. This thesis focuses on early intervention strategies for reducing the incidence of conduct problems in children and explores a multi-modal early intervention and prevention program targeting children and families at-risk of the development of conduct problems. A randomised controlled trial involving 455 children was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of this program. Participants were drawn from ten Education Queensland primary schools in the Mount Gravatt district of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The 455 children were randomly assigned to either experimental or control conditions for the purposes of the program's evaluation. From this initial cohort, an indicated sample of 1 52 participants was identified through a universal screening process. This sample included children who were considered more at-risk of conduct problems. Participants designated to experimental conditions engaged in the school component of the program, with 66 of the experimental group receiving an additional indicated component facilitated in the school setting. Further, a selection of parents of children in the experimental group participated in the home component of the intervention. The retention rate for families engaged in the study was high with 96% of participants remaining engaged in the study throughout the evaluation process. The findings that emerged from the study revealed significant differences between participants who engaged in the intervention program compared with those designated to control conditions

A training activity was carried out with the aim of improving the relationship between the team of Villa O’Higgins Health Centre and the families participating in the Programme for Families in Biopsychosocial Risk of the said Centre. The activity applied a systemic model of families and health care teams as well as communications theory and cognitive biology. The evaluation of the process showed that the concepts delivered had been incorporated by the participants. There was a need to handle more specific tools. There was criticism of the methodology employed, but the global result is considered positive. There are cultural obstacles in the current system and professional roles in health care., Con el objetivo de potenciar la relación entre el equipo humano del Centro de Salud Villa O’Higgins y las familias atendidas en el Programa de Familias en Riesgo Biopsicosocial de dicho Centro, se efectuó una capacitación basada en el modelo sistémico de familia y de equipo profesional, la teoría de la comunicación y la biología del conocimiento. La evaluación del proceso mostró asimilación de los conceptos entregados. Se percibió la necesidad de contar con herramientas de manejo más específicas. A pesar de críticas de los participantes respecto a la metodología, el resultado global puede considerarse positivo; pero deben tomarse en cuenta los obstáculos culturales del sistema y los roles actuales en la atención de Salud.
