Young people transitioning from out-of-home care frequently have a history of maltreatment and multiple psychosocial challenges. ‘Survivalist self-reliance’ – thought to involve social disconnection from others, and reluctance to seek support – provides one coping strategy. However, little is known about the self-reliant young person’s own reflexive interpretations of social relationships and support during transition. This qualitative study addresses the question: In the context of transitioning from out-of-home care, what reflexive meanings do ‘avowedly’ self-reliant individuals attribute to current social support and social relationships? Participants were four avowedly self-reliant young adults in transition from care, each with a history of maltreatment and multiple adversities. In this secondary analysis, data were from semi-structured interviews utilizing Margaret Archer’s internal conversations interview framework. Data were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Three thematic contexts were identified in which social support was salient: (a) current thoughts and active memories of both the birth family and foster families; (b) the importance of socializing; and (c) perceptions of formal services. There was evidence of cognitive reappraisal (a known amenable resilience factor) and selective engagement with social support, despite the strong overall stance of self-reliance. The findings suggest a more nuanced approach to our understanding of ‘survivalist self-reliance’.

从家庭护理过渡的新兴成年人的内部对话、自力更生和社会支持:解释性现象学研究

从家庭外护理过渡的年轻人经常有虐待史和多重心理社会挑战。“生存主义者的自力更生”——被认为涉及与他人的社会脱节,以及不愿寻求支持——提供了一种应对策略。然而,人们对自力更生的年轻人在转型期间对社会关系和支持的反思性解释知之甚少。这项定性研究解决了一个问题:在从户外护理过渡的背景下,“公开地”自力更生的个人对当前的社会支持和社会关系有什么反思意义?参与者是四名公开自力更生的年轻人,他们正在从护理过渡,每个人都有虐待和多次逆境的历史。在这个二次分析中,数据来自使用 Margaret Archer 的内部对话访谈框架的半结构化访谈。使用解释性现象学分析 (IPA) 分析数据。确定了三个突出社会支持的主题背景:(a) 对出生家庭和寄养家庭的当前想法和积极记忆;(b) 社交的重要性;(c) 对正规服务的看法。尽管自力更生的总体立场很强,但有证据表明认知重新评估(一种已知的适应能力因素)和选择性参与社会支持。研究结果为我们对“生存主义者的自力更生”的理解提出了一种更微妙的方法。确定了三个突出社会支持的主题背景:(a) 对出生家庭和寄养家庭的当前想法和积极记忆;(b) 社交的重要性;(c) 对正规服务的看法。尽管自力更生的总体立场很强,但有证据表明认知重新评估(一种已知的适应性因素)和选择性参与社会支持。研究结果为我们对“生存主义者的自力更生”的理解提出了一种更微妙的方法。确定了三个突出社会支持的主题背景:(a) 对出生家庭和寄养家庭的当前想法和积极记忆;(b) 社交的重要性;(c) 对正规服务的看法。尽管自力更生的整体立场很强,但有证据表明认知重新评估(一种已知的适应性因素)和选择性参与社会支持。研究结果为我们对“生存主义者的自力更生”的理解提出了一种更微妙的方法。尽管自力更生的整体立场很强,但有证据表明认知重新评估(一种已知的适应性因素)和选择性参与社会支持。研究结果为我们对“生存主义者的自力更生”的理解提出了一种更微妙的方法。尽管自力更生的整体立场很强,但有证据表明认知重新评估(一种已知的适应性因素)和选择性参与社会支持。研究结果为我们对“生存主义者的自力更生”的理解提出了一种更微妙的方法。
