“…Vignettes as a research method have gained currency in many disciplines over the past 50 years. They are now widely used in disciplines such as education (Barnatt, Shakman, Enterline, Cochran-Smith, & Ludlow, 2007;Chau et al, 2001), occupational therapy (Gliner, Haber, & Weise, 1999), psychology (Hawkins & McCallum, 2001), social work (Forrester, McCambridge, Waissbein, & Rollnick, 2008;Killick & Taylor, 2011;Steckley, 2011;Stokes & Schmidt, 2011) and nursing (Feng & Wu, 2005;Ko & Koh, 2007;Taylor, Lauder, Moy, & Corlett, 2009). …”

This paper is a discussion regarding vignette development and administration as a means of protecting research participants in social research. Health and social care researchers investigate a plethora of issues that may be sensitive or upsetting, for example, abuse or bereavement. This exposes participants to potential emotional harm caused by revisiting the original trauma. Using research methods that offer a protective layer is important. Evidence suggests that vignettes provide protection for research participants by placing distance between their experience and that of the vignette character. However, there are few methodological papers regarding vignette use. Utilising examples from our own research, we engage in a critical discussion regarding vignette development and administration. The paper offers a new framework to support researchers -particularly those in health and social care -in the development and administration of vignettes. We contend that the framework supports best practice in vignette use, particularly when researching sensitive issues.

“…Third, given the increased emphasis on 'safe practice' , certain practices were favoured including the growth of record keeping. These all compromised the delivery of relationship based practice particularly, the intimate and relational aspects of their work with children including, for example, hugging and touching (Steckley, 2012;Soldevila, Peregrino, Oriol, & Filella, 2013).…”

In a contemporary context dominated by reports of the historical institutional abuse of children and young people in residential children's homes, and where the voice of workers is largely absent, this study explores the views and experiences of 26 workers in the Republic of Ireland regarding relationship‐based practice. Using an exploratory, qualitative approach and informed by ‘appreciative inquiry’; semi‐structured interviews were undertaken with 26 residential care workers. The findings highlight that relationship‐based practice has not been fully understood and/or embraced in practice because of a culture of fear that has permeated the Irish residential childcare system. Using theoretical concepts associated with the sociology of fear, the paper explores their effects on practice and argues that these are amplified given the current low status of residential care workers, the impact of media reports and the influence of current discourses around professional practice in which ‘objective’ and ‘emotionally detached’ practice is viewed as synonymous with efficiency and effectiveness. The paper ends by considering implications for professional practice in residential childcare settings.

“…Noen studier belyser barns opplevelse av tvangsbruk under institusjonsplassering (Day og Daffern, 2009;Henriksen et al, 2008;Morgan, 2004;Steckley og Kendrick, 2008b). Videre finnes det noen internasjonale studier som har belyst ansattes erfaring med tvangsbruk og oppfatninger av tvangsbruk (Steckley, 2011;Steckley og Kendrick, 2008a, 2008bZiegler, 2001).…”
