A thematic analysis resulted in four meta-themes: (1) Optimistic adoption views, beliefs and values, (2) the integral role of the adoptive family in adoption, (3+) the effects of adoption, and (4) perceptions of adoption in society. These findings indicate that adoption is a good alternative to substitute, foster or institutional care. All participants believed in the positive nature of adoption and the possibility of positive adoption outcomes. However, a positive adoption experience may be dependent on the adoptees’ access to their biological history, the absence of abuse, and open communication about adoption.","PeriodicalId":45383,"journal":{"name":"Adoption Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42186299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We describe the development of a new self-report measure – the Diasporic Identity Scale (DIS) – to assess this construct, and we provide initial psychometric evidence for it using a sample of transnationally adopted Korean American adolescents (N = 117). The DIS comprises two dimensions: solidarity (r =.90) and homeland attachment (r =.88). Diasporic solidarity is a sense of within-group empathy and emphasizes community building; homeland attachment captures a desire to return to the homeland and for cultural roots. Exploratory factor analysis supports the two-factor structure. We also provide initial evidence for convergent, discriminant, and concurrent validity.

Momentum to end the program followed reports of adoption-related exploitation including the abduction and sale of children, falsification of documentation, bribing of officials, inaccurate testimonies, and false promises to birth families. The Ethiopian Parliament also cited concerns over the identity and psychological problems of adoptees as contributing factors to the ban. This paper explores how adoptive parents, with knowledge of exploitation in their own adoptions, are responding emotionally and pragmatically. Qualitative analysis of interview data provides insight into how adoptive parents communicate about and integrate referral and emergent adoption narratives in the service of healthy identity development in adopted children.","PeriodicalId":45383,"journal":{"name":"Adoption Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10926755.2021.1908472","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44042869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, infertile couples in urban India tend to rely on assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) for a child. Several media reports have highlighted that infertile couples in urban India intend to adopt a child only when all possibilities of becoming biological parents have been exhausted. Several studies have examined the relationship between infertility and assisted reproductive technologies in urban India. However, there is limited academic scholarship on the attitudes of infertile couples toward the adoption of children in India. Adopting a qualitative lens and using the functionalist theoretical framework the present study examines the different factors that shape the perceptions toward child adoption among infertile couples in urban Goa, India. In the process, the study also reflects on the intersections between infertility and gender role fulfillment among these couples to understand the lived experience of infertility on a regular basis.","PeriodicalId":45383,"journal":{"name":"Adoption Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10926755.2021.1910393","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47283765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research has highlighted how the needs of parents who have their children removed are often unmet by services. This research explored the experiences of mothers, with trauma histories, who had made or agreed with the decision for their child to be placed into care. Three British mothers of children in care each participated in two semi-structured interviews. Data was analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Three superordinate themes were generated: A fractured sense of motherhood highlighted the struggle with mothering identities in line with feelings of disconnection and separation; ‘I wish I could turn back the clocks’: Living with feelings of failure and shame illuminated the underlying feelings of guilt and shame associated with perceived failings; ‘Less than a person’: Becoming nothing and no-one alluded to experiences of disempowerment and dehumanization. Implications for reducing burden on adoption services are discussed through interventions sensitive to the operation of power, whilst the need for therapeutic services that acknowledge loss and grief are highlighted for relinquishing birthmothers.","PeriodicalId":45383,"journal":{"name":"Adoption Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10926755.2021.1908473","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47665524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As such, little research has explored TRA family experiences in South Africa. Experts worldwide agree that TRA parents need to engage their children in racial and cultural socialization. To explore parental attitudes toward the cultural and racial socialization of their TRA children, this study adopted a mixed-method approach. First, 76 TRA parents completed the Transracial Adoption Parenting Scale. Second, using Vonk’s (2001) three-part definition of TRA parent cultural competence, 35 TRA parents were interviewed regarding their racial awareness, multicultural planning, and imparting of survival skills to their adopted children. Findings are discussed along with implications for educating potential TRA parents of the importance of racial/cultural socialization of transracial adoptees.","PeriodicalId":45383,"journal":{"name":"Adoption Quarterly","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10926755.2021.1884155","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48550615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
