Objective:
Narrative objectives1 - This study has two main objectives.
First, it aims to clarify the impact of Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) training on foster parents' confidence in their TIC-related abilities, their implementation of TIC practices, their Quality of Life (QOL), and their well-being. Furthermore, it seeks to determine if the magnitude of these effects differs based on the foster parents' own Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).
Second, using baseline data, this study aims to clarify the association between the foster child's difficulties and the foster parent's QOL (encompassing secondary traumatic stress, burnout, and compassion satisfaction) and well-being. It will also investigate whether the strength of this association is moderated by the foster parents' ACEs.
By examining the relationship with children's difficulties and the differential effects of parental ACEs, this research can contribute to identifying the specific groups that require more substantial support and help inform what kind of assistance is necessary.
To capture both the positive and negative aspects of the foster parenting experience, this study includes open-ended questions, although these will not be part of the quantitative analysis. The free-text responses will ask about joys and happy experiences, difficulties and challenges, and the motivations for becoming a foster parent. The intention is to incorporate these qualitative insights into the discussion for a more comprehensive interpretation.
