“…Qualitative methods were used in five studies, whereof three were based on interviews with children and adolescents (Kahl & Jungbauer, 2014 ; Trondsen & Tjora, 2014 ; Wangensteen & Westby, 2019 ), one study was based on verbal response, field notes and observations (Palumbo et al., 2022 ) and in one study, 64 clinicians were interviewed (Bartsch et al., 2015 ). Eight studies used quantitative methods (Collishaw et al., 2016 ; Evans et al., 2015 ; Küçük et al., 2020 ; Monti & Rudolph, 2017 ; Nijjar et al., 2014 ; Sipler et al., 2020 ; Van Loon et al., 2015 ; Watson et al., 2014 ) and one study was mixed methods (O'Connor et al., 2014 ).…”

“…Children and adolescents growing up with parental alcohol or substance misuse were the target groups for three of the studies (O'Connor et al., 2014 ; Palumbo et al., 2022 ; Wangensteen & Westby, 2019 ) while two studies targeted mental illness or substance misuse (Sipler et al., 2020 ; Van Loon et al., 2015 ). The remaining nine studies focused on children of parents with mental illness.…”

“…Children and adolescents growing up with parental mental illness or alcohol or substance misuse pointed out family resources acting side by side with the difficulties these families go through. Protective parental characteristics were recognized in several of the studies (Bartsch et al, 2015;Collishaw et al, 2016;Kahl & Jungbauer, 2014;Watson et al, 2014) and family support and cohesion were highlighted in the two intervention studies, showing how psychoeducation programs may strengthen family resources (Küçük et al, 2020;Sipler et al, 2020). Bartsch et al (2015) described protective parental characteristics comprised of the parent's capacity for self-reflection on their own illness, and how this could have an impact on their child, but also parents' willingness to engage in treatment in relation to the severity of their symptoms.…”

“…First, absence of symptoms, risk behaviour or mental illness, despite increased risk was used to operationalize resilience in the children and adolescents (Collishaw et al, 2016;O'Connor et al, 2014). Second, resilience factors or protective factors were described as individual resources and external facilitators for building resilience or mediating the impact of adversity (Collishaw et al, 2016;Küçük et al, 2020;O'Connor et al, 2014;Sipler et al, 2020;Van Loon et al, 2015;Watson et al, 2014).…”

“…Examples of Individual resources or internal protective factors were self-esteem and self-disclosure (Van Loon et al, 2015), adaptation and empathy (Küçük et al, 2020) and personal and social competence (Sipler et al, 2020). The indicators used to assess external protective factors concerned family responsiveness or warmth (Collishaw et al, 2016;Watson et al, 2014), family support or cohesion (Küçük et al, 2020;O'Connor et al, 2014;Sipler et al, 2020;Van Loon et al, 2015) and peer relationships (Collishaw et al, 2016), peer support and school support (Küçük et al, 2020) and social resources (Sipler et al, 2020).…”

AimThe aim of this integrative review was to investigate how resilience has been researched and explore experiences of resilience, in children of parents with mental illness or alcohol or substance misuse.DesignAn integrative review.MethodThe search included three major electronic databases, PubMed, Scopus and PsycINFO with the aim of identifying peer‐reviewed studies where the concept of resilience was explored as resilience, coping, adaptation or protective factors.ResultsOut of 4016 studies, 14 were included after meeting predetermined criteria and methodological quality evaluation. The findings are presented in five categories: characteristics of the studies, operationalization and interpretation of resilience, individual resources, family resources and resources outside the family.Patient or public contributionResilience in children of parents with mental illness or substance misuse refers to coping strategies, protective factors and absence of symptoms or risk behaviour despite being exposed to risk. We suggest a three‐level approach for mapping of resilience resources in the target group: the individual level, family level and outside of the family that includes both non‐professionals and professionals. The use of disengagement or avoidance strategies implies poor resilience but may be necessary in absence of support, as acts of self‐preservation during chaotic periods or harmful situations.

Families with Parental Mental Health Problems: A Systematic Narrative Review of Family‐Focused Practice

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The mental health problems of parents can negatively affect their whole family. The organisational and wider context may also influence the outcomes for all involved. The aims of this systematic review were: to develop a working definition of family‐focused practice (FFP); identify the types of outcomes that are measured with a focus on service user experiences; and explore how well interventions in the included studies fit with previously established components of FFP. A comprehensive literature search of 16 databases was conducted for peer‐reviewed, primary research studies related to FFP published between 1998 and 2016. In total, 3731 articles were identified and screened by four reviewers. Of those, 40 articles met all of the inclusion criteria. The review focused on family outcomes and, consistent with previous reviews, there was a reasonable degree of consistency about the core components of FFP. An additional component, identified by this review, which was part of some interventions, was work to improve access to and engagement with community supports and services. The review concludes that there is a need for: an agreed definition of FFP; clearer links to relevant theories; a more consistent approach to measuring outcomes, including economic perspectives; and an increased strategic promotion of whole family approaches.Key Practitioner Messages There is an immediate need for an agreed definition of family‐focused practice. Relevant theory could further clarify the theories of change and anticipated outcomes. There is consistency across studies about the key components of family‐focused practice. This review suggests the inclusion of an additional component, which is practice that improves access to and engagement with community supports and services. Economic evaluations of family‐focused practice are needed. ‘There is an immediate need for an agreed definition of family‐focused practice’
