This study examined the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy for internet addiction (CBT-IA) in reducing the negative effects of WhatsApp use among social work students at Sultan Qaboos University, Oman. Method: A quantitative, quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-test measures was employed during the 2023–2024 academic year. Thirty-four students were divided into experimental and control groups. The intervention was delivered over 24 sessions in three stages to improve students’ digital habits. Results: The results showed a significant reduction in WhatsApp use ( p < .001), improved academic focus ( p < .001), and healthier digital behaviors in the experimental group, while no significant changes were observed in the control group. Post-intervention comparisons revealed differences between groups. Discussion: The findings suggest that CBT-IA may help students manage digital distractions and develop healthier digital habits in educational contexts.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"426 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147751533","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 systematic review examined the effectiveness of financial coaching on financial and health outcomes. Method: Following Campbell Collaboration standards, we searched electronic databases, gray literature, websites, trial registries, and reference lists through September 2024, and contacted experts. Results: Eleven studies (8 RCTs, 3 quasi-experimental designs) met inclusion criteria, with a total of 3,524 participants. Studies were conducted primarily in community settings with adults and measured diverse financial outcomes. Four studies also measured health outcomes. Effect sizes were generally small and inconsistent across studies. While some studies found statistically significant improvements in financial stress, smoking cessation, and savings for children's education, methodological weaknesses and heterogeneity in outcomes limited conclusions. Risk of bias assessment revealed concerns across most studies. Discussion: The evidence base for financial coaching remains limited, and further rigorous research with standardized outcomes is needed.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147743937","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}

Young men online adhering to these norms face elevated risk, worsened by negative digital experiences. Interventions emphasizing masculine-valued physical competency may aid suicide prevention. Methods: A two-arm, four-wave randomized waitlist-controlled trial recruited men aged 17–30 at suicide risk from online forums. Participants received either online social work (OSW) alone or OSW with a three-month competency-based physical training module (CbM) involving high-intensity circuit training. Outcomes were tracked for five months. Results: The CbM group showed significant, lasting gains in self-esteem, physical self-perception, and sport engagement. Suicidal ideation stabilized, with a 95% higher likelihood of improvement versus controls. Perceived physical mastery, not objective fitness, appeared key to mental health benefits. Competency-based physical training module also showed higher engagement. Conclusions : Combining competency-based physical training with OSW provides a scalable, gender-sensitive approach to reducing suicide risk among young men.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147719786","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}

Existing instruments lack adequate validation and do not reflect the diverse developmental and contextual realities of out-of-home care. Method An initial pool of 193 items was refined to 42 through expert review and pilot testing with young people aged 14 to 25 years. The measure was administered to 122 care-experienced participants in Western Australia. Psychometric evaluation followed the consensus-based standards for the selection of health measurement outcomes (COSMIN) framework and included exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, internal consistency reliability, hypothesis testing for construct validity, and interpretability. Results The final instrument comprised 28 items across eight domains and demonstrated good structural validity, acceptable model fit, and strong internal consistency. Hypothesis testing supported construct validity, while interpretability analyses revealed ceiling effects for two domains. Discussion The measure provides a psychometrically sound tool to guide targeted transition planning and support for care-experienced young people.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"79 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147719785","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 The scale was administered to 877 adults from various regions of Türkiye. The factor structure was examined using exploratory factor analysis (n = 405) and confirmatory factor analysis (n = 235). Results The final 7-item scale demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties (χ 2 /df = 1.35; RMSE = 0.03; CFI = 0.99; α = 0.88; λ = 0.88; ω = 0.88; CR = 0.90). Criterion validity was supported by moderate positive correlations with resilience ( r = .39), spiritual well-being ( r = .25), and grit ( r = .26).

Future research is recommended to examine its applicability across diverse populations and applied settings.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147507867","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: Using nationally representative data from 333,489 elementary schools, a comparative static-group design was employed, with school socioeconomic status, school status, and regional location included as covariates. Results: Schools implementing the Kurikulum Merdeka were associated with significantly higher disability attitude scores (Cohen's d = 0.88) and tolerance climate scores ( d = 1.05) compared to Kurikulum 2013 schools. Mediation analysis indicated that school tolerance climate significantly mediated the curriculum attitude relationship, accounting for 30.82% of the total association. Discussion: These findings provide evidence consistent with the view that values-driven curriculum reform is linked to meaningful reductions in school-based discrimination at scale, with implications for school social work practice in advancing inclusive education and social justice.","PeriodicalId":47993,"journal":{"name":"Research on Social Work Practice","volume":"229 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147507875","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}
