  In this study, the validity of the recently developed 28-item Resilience Scale for Adolescents (READ) was examined. Survey data from a representative sample of 6,723 Norwegian senior high school students between 18 and 20 years of age were used for this purpose. Validity and reliability were investigated by means of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, correlations with other relevant variables, and internal consistency measures. The results supported the construct and convergent validity of the five factors of a modified 23-item version of the scale, which also yielded acceptable psychometric properties. The paper concludes that the modified READ is a valid measure assessing relevant resilience factors with relatively few items, thereby serving as a valuable tool in resilience and risk-factor research.

  Tittel: Påvirkning, mestring og forbedringer i forbindelse med internasjonale operasjoner i Afghanistan: En studie av stabsveteranen og familien. Veiledere: Svein Mossige og Ole Boe Bakgrunn: Det har tidligere vært lite fokus i norsk forskning på norske veteraners opplevelser i forbindelse med internasjonale operasjoner. Et økende fokus på veteraner i samfunnet generelt har ført til økt forsking på gruppen (se Gustavsen/forsvaret.no, 2014 for en oversikt). Felles for denne forskningen er at veteraner sees på som en stor homogen gruppe, eller at fokuset kun er på den gruppen som anses å ta størst risiko – de som jobber «på bakken» eksempelvis som vognfører eller troppsjef (taktisk nivå). En veterangruppe som i norsk forskning hittil har vært mer eller mindre glemt eller oversett er stabsveteranene. Stabsveteranene jobber høyere opp i forsvarsorganisasjonen, og har ofte det overordnede administrative ansvaret under utenlandsoppholdet. Mange av disse har sin faste plass innenfor leir mens de er deployert (utenlands), og det er vanlig at de er hentet fra forskjellige avdelinger hjemme i Norge, for så å bli satt sammen til en stab som skal virke sammen. Mål: Hovedmålet med denne studien er å undersøke hvordan stabsveteranen og familien mestrer tiden før, under og etter internasjonale operasjoner; herunder hvilken påvirkning det har på familien, hvilke kilder til mestring som nevnes, og hva de opplever at fungerer og ikke. Metode: Deltakerne i studien var personer som har vært i internasjonale operasjoner som stabsoffiserer i Afghanistan i løpet av de siste 10 årene og deres samboer/tilsvarende, til sammen 9 par. En forutsetning for deltakelse i studien var at de hadde barn under 18 år som bodde hjemme i perioden før, under og etter utenlandsoppdraget. Det ble gjennomført kvalitative intervjuer, og resultatene ble deretter analysert og kodet etter en tematisk analysemodell (Willig, 2013). Studien er gjennomført som en del av et større prosjekt i regi av Forsvarsdepartementet, men er i sin helhet designet og gjennomført av oppgaveforfatter i denne studien. Resultat: 1 av 9 stabsveteraner oppgir å ha psykiske problemer i ettertid av sin periode i Afghanistan. De som har vært hjemme med ansvaret for barna i perioden oppgir manglende tid og savn som de viktigste påvirkningene. Alle informantene omtaler temaer som kan relateres til forskjellige teorier om mestring. Informantene er i stor grad fornøyd, men har noen forslag til forbedring, som oppfølging som er mer individuelt tilpasset, og bedre muligheter for opptrening av egne ferdigheter og samtrening med samarbeidende avdelinger før utreise.

  Tre spørsmål som synliggjør dilemmaer i arbeid med seksuelle overgrepssaker vil bli stilt til barnevernets engasjement i et utvalg av overgrepssaker: På hvilket grunnlag engasjerer barnevernet seg? Hva er bakgrunnen for at barnevernet velger å engasjere seg på en bestemt måte? Hva gjør dette engasjementet med barnevernets relasjoner til familiemedlemmene? Spørsmålene vil bli belyst ved en utforskning av disse temaene: Betydningen av barnevernets intervensjoner for at barna beskyttes mot overgrep Hvilke intervensjoner bidrar til beskyttelse av mulig overgrepsutsatte barn? Er det noen typer av intervensjoner som kan motvirke at barnet beskyttes? Hvordan kan barnevernet hjelpe en omsorgsperson til å beskytte sitt barn? Kan barnevernet gjøre omsorgspersonen mindre i stand til å beskytte sitt barn? Kan barnevernet bidra til at den mistenkte trekkes inn i beskyttelsen av barnet? Betydningen av barnevernets intervensjoner for at barnet får fortelle sin historie Hvilke intervensjoner gjør det blir lettere for et barn å fortelle sin overgrepshistorie? Intervensjoner som kan bidra til at barnet ikke får utviklet sin fortelling om mulige overgrep. Betydningen av barnevernets intervensjoner for åpenhet innad i familien Intervensjoner som lukker.

  The members of the project form a research and therapy team. The aim is to develop and evaluate a model for how to help the child and the other family members in cases where child sexual abuse is suspected. The questions: what is in the best interests of the child, and how can the child be protected in the short and in the long run, will be investigated. In many abuse cases it is difficult to know what has happened. One aim is to develop a model for how to work with such unsettled cases. The model will be developed in co-operation with the child protective service. A guiding principle for the project is that control is subordinated openness, co-operation and conversation. The family members are regarded as central agents in their own lives. The aim of the project is to develop concrete guidelines, based on this principle, for the helping professions. Knowledge about how each of the family members, especially the child, perceive their situation will be used as important therapeutic guidelines. For a period of two years the research team will work as a clinical team and receive family members who worry if their child may be sexually abused by another family member. Decisions about how to work and who should be involved will be taken in co-operation with the help-seeking family member. The team may be involved in dialogues with the mother, the child, and the suspected father, individually or together. The interventions of the team, in co-operation with the clients, will be systematically recorded. A registration form for information about the clients, and registration forms to cover important events during each therapy session has been developed. At least two members of the research/therapy team are present in each session. The registration forms cover the present team members understandings, agreements and disagreements, and thoughts connected to topics and dilemmas in the meetings with the clients. The sessions are video recorded if we are given the permission. The detailed and systematic recordings from each session will bring the experiences from the meetings with the clients in a manageable and systematic order, forming a basis for our detailed descriptions of guidelines for how to help these families. The ways of helping the families will be systematically evaluated by the family members.

  The first part of the work-shop adressed questions conserning the best interests of the child, when there is a suspicion of sexual abuse from someone in the family. The following views were descibed and dicussed: * The way child abuse cases are organised and implemented in the helping systems tend to neglect the interests of the child. * The child¿s main objective may not be to prosecute the perpetrator. They want the abuse to stop. It is important that they are given the opportunity to tell their story and have it psychologically confirmed. * The offender is often active in the process of keeping the abuse a secret. This secrecy tends to obscure each family members¿ experience of events and shapes their perceptions of each other. * The fact that the abuse has to be kept secret also effects other areas of conversation. Like rings in the water the areas that are not open for conversation get larger and larger. * In an atmosphere of secrecy, the caretaker does not have access to the child¿s experiences. Thus it is impossible to verify the child¿s¿ feelings and thoughts about the events. * The cases have to be organised in a way that opens the dialogue between the child, the non-abusive. The second part of the work shop presented and discussed guiding principles in meeting families concerned about child sexual abuse: «A crises perspective». Expecting that the concern about abuse brings each member of the family into a serious crises in life, whether the child has been abused or not. «A systemic perspective». Each member of the family is seen as part of a system of mutual dependency and loyalty, with an inclination to protect each other. «A therapeutic position». Attaining a collaborative relation through: a) ensuring that at least one or more members of the family has given, or has been helped to give, the assignment to the therapist b) exploring and understanding the different versions of reality that are conveyed about the concern of abuse «Decisions in the hands of the family». The family-members take the final decisions about whom to invite to the sessions at which time. The therapists explore and challenge the possible consequences of the various proposals that are discussed. «Openness with consent». Upon request, a willingness to inform child protective services and police, but never without informing and discussing this with the family. «Sharing information». Helping the members of the family to share their thoughts and reflections concerning one or more of the following questions: a) events leading to concern b) how to handle the concern of possible abuse c) how to relate to each other in the near and more distant future d) how to relate to helping-systems and control-systems outside the family «Protection». A focus on what the family-members can do in order to reduce any doubt and suspicion about abuse in the future. «Flexibility». A preparedness to: a) take seriously what ever topic the family brings into the sessions b) accept ambiguity c) change the rate of sessions d) offer individual-, couple- and family-sessions in the same case e) accept solutions that not necessary are perfect

  The work shop presented the research design in a project concern with treatment of families with sexually abused children. The attention was directed towards the following subjects: MAIN GOALS. 1)Develop and evaluate a model for how to help family members in cases where child sexual abuse is suspected. 2)To learn more about what happens in families when someone is concerned about a child sexual abuse. THE TEAM. Five psychologists with experience from both clinical work and research. At least two colleges are involved in each case, one having the main responsibility for the case management TIME. Three years (from February 1998) RECRUITING CLIENTS. * Referrals from child protective services, child psychiatry, family guidance offices, hospitals, legal agencies, and support centres for sexually abused children * Direct contact with family members. CRITERIA FOR INCLUDING CLIENTS. Concern about a child, less than 18 years of age, being sexually abused by someone in the family. REGISTRATION OF INFORMATION. * Each session is video-taped * Systematic registration into a data base at the end of each session: - a short summary from the session - concerns within the family about sexual abuse - descriptions of relations between family members - how helping systems are relating to the family - descriptions of how the therapists worked with the family - decisions reached within the session - reflections about the session from the therapist and the colleagues * Child Behavioural Check List (CBCL)administered at the start of the therapy, and one year after the end of the therapy * Interviews with clients at the end of the therapy, and one year later, asking for: - evaluations of the therapeutic process - descriptions of changes in the relations within the family - descriptions of changes in the daily living of the family SUPPORTED BY.
