The problem
Intervention: Child participation processes in child welfare emergency placement decision-making
Who it was tested with: 148 children aged 3-18 years (mean 11-12 years, 59% girls, 48% with minority backgrounds) from four Norwegian municipalities in emergency child welfare placements.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"The various degrees to which children participate in child welfare services' emergency cases and factors predicting such participation were explored" through review of 148 case files using "multinomial logistic regression." This is a retrospective documentary analysis without intervention or comparison groups, making it observational evidence of current practice rather than an evaluation of an intervention's effectiveness.
Study relies on case file documentation which may not accurately reflect actual participation practices or the quality of children's involvement; cross-sectional design prevents causal inference; findings limited to Norwegian context
