- W2923469271 abstract "Parental separation is an area of social concern because of its known potential for negative health and social outcomes for children and adolescents. Research indicates that children’s involvement in decision-making during parents’ separation influences child wellbeing. Although most family service providers conceptually agree with children’s involvement in decision-making, tensions exist regarding its implementation during family dispute resolution. Tensions arise when services try to establish a balance between children’s rights and child protection. Primarily this thesis informs this balance by investigating the relationship between young persons’ accounts of their involvement as a child, and the capacity for adversity management in late adolescence. The concept of Sense of Coherence (SOC), derived from Antonovsky’s Salutogenic Theory was utilised as a determinant of participants’ ability to positively adapt and manage the adversity of parental separation.In order to obtain a measure of young people’s involvement in decision-making experienced as children, two quantitative self-report measures were developed in Study-1: a) The Perceived Level of Involvement Questionnaire (PLIQ-12); and b) The Perceived Influence of Parental Separation Questionnaire (PIPSQ-10). Scale development included four Phases: Phase-1 included item construction informed by a review of literature regarding children’s accounts of involvement in decision-making during parental separation. Both scales were piloted with 12 late adolescents aged 18-24 years. In Phase-2, the instruments were administered to a panel of nine industry experts, where the relevance and clarity of each item were scored to arrive at a Content Validity Index. Phase-3 involved the administration of both scales to 212 late adolescents aged 18-24 years. Principal Axis Factoring revealed the PLIQ-12 to be unidimensional while two subscales were identified (Positive Life Influence (PLI) and Negative Life Influence (NLI) in the PIPSQ-10). In Phase-4, the PLIQ-12 and PIPSQ-10 were administered to 70 late adolescents in a validity study. The PLIQ-12, PLI and NLI revealed evidence of convergent and divergent validity when compared with four other valid and reliable scales measuring similar constructs.In Study-2: An online questionnaire containing the PLIQ-12, PIPSQ-10, Orientation to Life Questionnaire (SOC-29), and demographic information were administered to 212 late adolescents aged 18-24 years. The findings revealed that late adolescent perceptions of their involvement as children in decision-making during parental separation shared a positive relationship with the capacity for adversity management in late adolescence as measured by the SOC-29. Involvement in decision-making also shared a negative relationship with the NLI. That is to say the more involvement in decision-making was perceived, the less negative influence parental separation had in the lives of late adolescents. In Study-3, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 24 participants who had also participated in Study-2. A thematic analysis of their responses revealed that young people positively reframed their adverse experiences of parental separation and these experiences informed a range of adversity management strategies in late adolescence. Although strategy effectiveness was perceived as highly effective by respondents in managing further adversity, it revealed a diverse relationship with SOC when the findings from Study-2 and Study-3 were triangulated.This research contributes to the knowledge base of professionals and organisations that advise families, regarding the involvement of children in the family dispute resolution process, which is considered pivotal in children’s care planning." @default.
