Rondom een ouderlijke scheiding zijn de stem van kinderen en hun recht op participatie nog onvoldoende gewaarborgd in het gezin, bij scheidingsmediation en in de rechtbank. Er is een gebrek aan wetenschappelijke kennis over hoe kinderparticipatie het beste kan worden vormgegeven. Dit onderzoek gaat na of de participatie van kinderen bij beslissingen rondom scheiding hun gevoel van autonomie, verbondenheid en competentie vergroot, en zo hun algemeen functioneren verbetert. Daarnaast worden mogelijke risico’s van kinderparticipatie voor hun functioneren onderzocht, alsmede individuele verschillen hierin. Het onderzoek zal resulteren in praktische richtlijnen en hulpmiddelen om de participatie van kinderen rondom scheiding te verbeteren.

I am participating in the hub Where do I belong, which is part of Dynamics of Youth, one of the four strategic themes of Utrecht 木瓜福利影视. In this hub, together with a team of researchers from Pedagogics, Law, Social Geography, Computer Sciences and Linguistics, I examine the daily underlying processes that affect the belonging of adolescents living in more than one home, such as after parental divorce. Many children grow up in divorced or blended families, in which the family members do not all share the same household. Frequently, questions arise about the psychological and ethical aspects surrounding these modern families. After all, our sense of belonging originates from the first relationships with our primary caregivers. But what happens when children grow up in multi-resident families, are not raised by both biological parents, or live in two different homes and neighbourhoods?

RADAR is an ongoing long-term longitudinal multi-informant and multi-method study, which aims to examine the dynamic interplay between person and environment characteristics in the development of adolescents and young adults. RADAR follows youth across a period of 15 to 20 years, based on surveys, observations, and experience sampling, combined with psychophysiological, (epi)genetic, and neighbourhood data, the latter in collaboration with psychiatry and social geography. RADAR G3 focuses on intergenerational transmission of parenting and psychosocial adjustment. RADAR is part of the NWO Gravitation , of which I am member of the steering committee and leader of the work package focusing on Intergenerational transmission.

In the ERC-CoG INTRANSITION project, I examine how interactions with parents and friends affect adolescents’ identity, autonomy and psychosocial adjustment during school transitions from elementary to secondary education and from secondary to tertiary education. The project will examine intra-individual (or within-person, as opposed to inter-individual or between-person) processes of change in identity and autonomy at different time scales: moment-to-moment behaviour during interactions with parents and friends, relational experiences across hours and days, and long-term development. This project particularly increases our understanding of developmental processes of identity and autonomy at individual level that drive developmental changes during transitional periods.
