Pathways study

The Care Pathways and Outcomes Study has been following the lives of a population of young children in care in Northern Ireland since 2000. They are 16-21 now.

I was recently interviewed by Ms Eimear McQuaide for a Leeds University student documentary on intergenerational trauma and the high level of mental health problems in Northern Ireland.

This is my own take on these issues, if you are interested:

Looking forward to seeing our paper in this special edition. It has been accepted and is in the final stages and as soon as it is available online, we will share it with you. The first paper from the study to harness the power of our longitudinal data over 3 waves.

Update: The Special Issue in Journal of Child Abuse and Neglect on the 'relationship between adoption and trauma' will be released in June 2022.

There are 14 articles, presenting range of empirical, clinical, and autoethnographic perspectives.

Should be well worth a read.

Good developmental psychologists are inquisitive, open-minded and sensitive to the challenges that research participants might face.
Read Dr Dominic McSherry's article for tips on getting into developmental #psychology.

Just wanted to wish all the families that have participated in our research as well as all other advisory group members and followers merry Christmas and a happy new year 2020

[Spencer Bailey @SpencerBaileyUK]

Study of children in care in Wales finds children moved 9 times on average and saw 7 different social workers.
1 in 3 had been sexually abused at some point in their lives. Residential care should be considered more rather than being seen as a last resort.

@CoramBAAF @LancsUniLaw @ChildFamJustice @researchIP @ReesCentre @KarenB_LU @byameliahill @pollycurtis @familylawweek @familylaw @FamilyRightsGp @LancasterUni Our new research review shows that #specialguardianship orders provide children with a safe, permanent home with family members when the court decides they cannot live with their birth parents.
