Method: The review adheres to the latest Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses 2020 guidelines to ensure rigor. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were retrieved from their inception to July 16, 2025. 13 RCTs were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: The results showed that EW had a small effect size on grief (Hedges’ g = 0.388) and depression (Hedges’ g = 0.308). Subgroup analyses revealed moderate effects for higher session numbers (Hedges’ g = 0.583) and the presence of therapist feedback (Hedges’ g = 0.679). Discussion: This meta-analysis showed writing interventions effectively reduce grief, though effect sizes were small. EW interventions containing more session numbers and with therapist feedback are especially effective.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144927823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: An analytical, longitudinal, quasi-experimental study was conducted with a pre- and postintervention design on a subsample of 130 individuals with a history of suicide attempt, drawn from a broader group of 622 participants monitored through the surveillance system. Validated instruments were applied to assess loneliness, resilience, depression, continuity of care, and psychosocial disability. Results: The disability model explained 40.1% of the variance in psychosocial disability and the final model explained 12.6% of the total variance. At the intervention level, high to moderate effect sizes were observed across all proposed scales. Conclusions: Psychosocial variables improved through community strengthening, system strengthening, and recognition of human rights. Community-based recovery emerges as a promising approach to addressing the suicide risk through community strengthening, support groups and human rights advocacy.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144901459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study tested a peer-enhanced BMI, where friends in emerging adults’ (EAs) social networks attended interventions. Method: Dyads were randomized to Peer-Enhanced Motivational Interviewing (PMI) or waitlist control (WC) conditions (NCT03264872). Seventy-four dyads ( n = 188) enrolled, completing surveys at baseline and then biweekly for 12 weeks. Primary outcomes included cannabis and alcohol problem indices. Supplemental measures were peer supportive behaviors, days of binge drinking, and alcohol-related problems. Linear, quadratic, and piecewise growth models tested differences in trends through 12 weeks. Results: For target clients, most results favored the PMI group with significant differences and moderate effects at select time points. However, these no significant between group differences in trends were observed between conditions through 12 weeks. Peer supportive behaviors increased significantly at 2 weeks among peers receiving PMI, but this effect faded through 12 weeks. Discussion: PMI is a promising dyadic-based treatment for EA substance misuse that should be studied further with larger samples.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144899030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: A comprehensive search was performed across six academic databases, with data coded and analyzed utilizing reflective thematic analysis. Results: A total of 21 studies were screened, revealing that (1) art therapy and narrative therapy emerged as two fundamental theoretical foundations supporting filmmaking; (2) practical experiences were summarized for future implementation, such as implementation strategies, role of the facilitator, and the appropriateness of filmmaking for different children and adolescents; and (3) filmmaking effectively enhances emotional (e.g., reductions in depression, anxiety, anger, and stress), social (e.g., interaction, cooperation, adaptation), and cognitive (e.g., self-related cognition, cognitive abilities) development in children and adolescents. Discussion: This study positions filmmaking as a strengths-based intervention that promotes youth development, offering social workers practical and creative tools for group-based practice.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144899036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over 15 months, 81 participants were randomized to receive 12 STAIR sessions during incarceration or split between jail and community. Pre- and postintervention data were analyzed for 38 participants. Statistically significant reductions in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; p = .002), depression ( p = .018), and anxiety ( p = .021) were observed, with small to moderate effect sizes. Improvements in coping self-efficacy and emotion regulation were noted but not statistically significant. Qualitative analysis of 37 interviews identified themes such as having time and space to participate, the importance of facilitators, and understanding the material. Barriers included community attrition and the need for population-specific materials. Despite threats to internal validity, findings support the feasibility of trauma-informed programming in jails and suggest implications for correctional and reentry-focused social work practice.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144899037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Method: We answer it using logistic regression on data from a Danish intervention study of children in family foster care, Me and My Foster Family, collected via the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) and the Attentive to Learning Questionnaire (ATT: Learn), which measure children's psychological well-being and their academic skills and learning difficulties, respectively. Results: While screening results revealing greater learning difficulties are directly associated with social workers’ decision to provide an intervention, those revealing greater problems with well-being are inversely related to the outcome. Further, boys consistently have a higher probability of receiving help than girls.
