“…This finding indicates that family relationships have a critical power over the explanation of children's quality of life. In many related studies conducted abroad, one of the most powerful predictors of children's quality of life/well-being was stated to be the relationships they build with their families (Bradshaw,Keung, Rees & Goswami, 2011;Casas, Bello, Gonzalez & Aligue, 2013;Dinisman, Andresen, Montserrat, Strózik, & Strózik , 2017;Goswami, 2012;Knopp et al, 2017;Kosher & Ben-Arieh, 2017;Kutsar et al, 2019;Lawler et al, 2017;Leeman et al, 2016;Migliorini et al, 2015;Migliorini et al, 2016;Navarro et al, 2017;Newland et al, 2014;Oriol et al, 2017;Strózik et al, 2016; The Children's Society, 2012; The Children's Society 2014; Uusitalo-Malmivaara & Lehto, 2013). No studies have been found investigating the variables which affect the children's life quality of in their mid-childhood living in Turkey.…”

“…Bu bulgu aile ilişkilerinin çocukların yaşam kalitesinin açıklanmasında önemli bir güce sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu konuda yurtdışında yapılan birçok araştırmada, çocukların yaşam kalitelerinin/iyi oluşlarının en güçlü yordayıcılardan birinin, çocukların aileleriyle kurdukları ilişkiler olduğu görülmüştür (Bradshaw,Keung, Rees & Goswami, 2011;Casas, Bello, Gonzalez & Aligue, 2013;Dinisman, Andresen, Montserrat, Strózik & Strózik, 2017;Goswami, 2012;Knopp et al, 2017;Kosher & Ben-Arieh, 2017;Kutsar et al, 2019;Lawler et al, 2017;Leeman et al, 2016;Migliorini et al, 2015;Migliorini et al, 2016;Navarro et al, 2017;Newland et al, 2014;Oriol et al, 2017;Strózik et al, 2016; The Children's Society, 2012; The Children's Society 2014; Uusitalo-Malmivaara & Lehto, 2013). Türkiye'de yaşayan, herhangi bir süreğen sağlık problemi olmayan orta çocukluk dönemindeki çocukların yaşam kaliteleri üzerinde etkili olan değişkenleri inceleyen araştırmalara rastlanmamıştır.…”

In this study, the relationship between the quality of life levels of children aged 9-11 and their perception of family functions and some demographic characteristics was investigated. The sample of the study included six primary schools and six secondary schools in the central districts of a metropolitan city located in the west of Turkey in the 2017-2018 academic year. Participants were 783 children, 396 girls and 387 boys. Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the data collected by using the General Quality of Life Scale for Children and Family Relationship Scale for Children. The results of the analysis showed that supportive and discouraging family relationships scores significantly predicted the quality of life of the children and explained 35.80% of change in their quality of life. In addition, the predictive power of supporting family relationships (28.70%) was significantly higher than that of the discouraging family relationships (-7.10%) in explaining children’s quality of life. Gender, age and number of siblings were not significantly correlated with life quality of children.

“…Collaboration between professionals is also fundamental to ensuring effective coordination between services and within intervention teams themselves (Darlington and Feeney 2009;Matei and Ghenţa 2018;Trawver and Brocious 2023;Weiber et al 2016;Whittaker et al 2017;Whitton et al 2008). Overall, social skills are important for building relationships between individuals (Migliorini et al 2016).…”

“…Some studies identified problem-solving skills (Bernard and Greenwood 2019; as essential for professionals to use in family support. These comprise critical and impartial thinking (Helm 2017;Oliver and Charles 2016), reflective practice (Helm 2017;Sletten and Ellingsen 2020), decision-making skills , planning skills (Littell and Tajima 2000;Migliorini et al 2016), effective resistance management skills (Rawlings and Blackmer 2019), and conflict management skills (Bernard and Greenwood 2019).…”

Family support encompasses a wide variety of professionals, sectors, and intervention paradigms that make it difficult to systematize and standardize the skills needed by the family support workforce. The present study aimed to describe the relevant skills of professionals, organize the main skills into different categories, and contribute to the development of intervention standardization guidelines in the field of family support. So, a systematic literature review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. The search was carried out in five databases and included the analysis of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods studies, and all studies were qualitatively assessed. Of the initial 3334 articles identified, 59 studies were included, and four categories were identified: professionals’ qualities, essential skills common to all professions and contexts, specific knowledge, and theoretical approaches necessary for family support. Most of the studies were from the United Kingdom, qualitative, published in the last 10 years, used small samples, and included a specific group of professionals. The included studies did not specify whether some skills or characteristics were considered more effective in practice, and they had bias issues related to social desirability. The implications for family support practice are discussed, as well as the gaps to be covered in future studies.
