This study investigates these inequalities in Norway, focusing on the intersections of socioeconomic status (SES), ethnic background, and household composition. Using individual-level administrative data, the 2005 birth cohort was linked to parental sociodemographic data and child welfare records from birth to age 13 (2005–2018). By age 13, 10.9% of children experienced at least one child welfare intervention and 2.2% of children were placed in out-of-home care. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to predict the cumulative probabilities of child welfare intervention and out-of-home placement by age 13. At the intersection of SES and ethnic background, the strongest social gradient was observed for children with Norwegian-born parents: by age 13, 29.6% of children with low-SES Norwegian-born parents had received an intervention, compared to 7.3% of children with middle-SES and 3.2% of children with high-SES parents. In contrast, the weakest social gradient was observed among children with two non-Western immigrant parents, with 22.3% of low SES, 20.9% of middle SES, and 16.2% of high SES children receiving an intervention. At the intersection of SES and household composition, low SES and time spent in a single-parent household increased the risk for intervention in an additive manner: 57.6% of children from low-SES, long-term single-parent households experienced at least one child welfare intervention by age 13, compared to only 1.9% of children from high-SES two-parent households. These findings highlight the importance of a quantitative, intersectional framework for understanding child welfare inequalities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48428,"journal":{"name":"Children and Youth Services Review","volume":"175 ","pages":"Article 108372"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144184878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Qualitative thematic analysis involved coding, code grouping, and theme development using ATLAS.ti. Findings indicate the need for broad systems attention to marginalization, separation trauma, and preparing workers for the context of supervised visitation Programs and requirements for parents should attend to self-identified needs, be trauma-informed, and needs-matched.

These adversities were perceived to have severe and far-reaching consequences for children’s development, behaviour, and emotional well-being. Addressing these challenges requires holistic and multi-layered interventions that consider the broader ecological context of the child.

This study aims to identify the best predictors of social exclusion among unaccompanied migrant children, to create a digital tool that integrates the complex reality of unaccompanied migrant children in shelters in Spain. Using a logistic regression model, an innovative risk assessment tool was created ad hoc for risk assessment within institutional care centres. A sample of 209 children who had been in residential care in Andalusia in 2021 was selected retrospectively. After applying a feature selection method, it was found that 24 variables are the most predictive within the educational, social, psychological or occupational areas; 8 belonged to risk factors and 16 to protective factors. Specifically, accessing intercultural mediation, having previous criminal records, bringing original documentation from their origin countries, using a sexualized vocabulary, having a good educational level and having economic resources for autonomy had a higher regression coefficient (Beta value), which means they are determinants in promoting better social inclusion. This pioneering study demonstrates that this digital tool offers a promising new method for the efficient screening of concerns for social professionals regarding social exclusion among unaccompanied migrant children in residential centres. One of the most suggestive findings of this study is the high incidence of protective factors in preventing the risk of social exclusion. Consequently, priority should be given to policies supporting protective factors related to social resources.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48428,"journal":{"name":"Children and Youth Services Review","volume":"175 ","pages":"Article 108345"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144177434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considerable literature supports the need for public health scholars and influencers committed to a healthy society, to lead and collaborate with social scientists, to restore much-eroded family health with a view to maximize positive early childhood experiences. Adverse childhood experiences are all too common today given adverse parenting environments and support, rather than ‘bad’ parents. This is a singularly relevant means of improving societal mental health, in turn reducing aggression and violence within it – not trivial issues in the United States today. Such an alternate perspective needs to be brought to the forefront by health professionals in supporting family-oriented public health initiatives, beyond the narrower reductionistic perspectives proffered by Adashi and colleagues.

Using the most recent three waves of panel data from the Pathways to Desistance study (<em>N</em> = 931) and a hybrid approach combining within- and between-cluster effects, we find some evidence of between-individual effects of employment, but no within-individual effects. Specifically, an inter-individual increase in employment is more likely to result in alcohol use, but less likely to result in drug use, implying that employment may prompt socialization of youth through drinking behaviors, whereas it may also deter drug use. In contrast, no intra-individual increase in employment is significantly associated with any type of substance use, implying that the employment effect may be limited. This highlights that employment may not contribute to changing an individual’s proclivity for substance use in our study participants.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48428,"journal":{"name":"Children and Youth Services Review","volume":"175 ","pages":"Article 108365"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144155117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
