- Adaptation of nussbaum's capabilities framework to community mental health: A consumer-based capabilities measurePublication . Sacchetto, Beatrice; Ornelas, José; Calheiros, Maria Manuela; Shinn, MarybethThe capabilities approach provides a rich evaluative framework to guide transformative change in the community mental health system. This study reports the content and construct validity and psychometric properties of a contextualized measure of the extent to which mental health programs foster achieved capabilities. The Achieved Capabilities Questionnaire for Community Mental Health (ACQ-CMH), adapted from Nussbaum's capabilities framework, was developed previously with consumer collaboration. Content validity was assessed through a collaborative process, involving a panel of eight consumers, staff members, and senior researchers. The resulting shorter version (ACQ-CMH-98) was completed by 332 community mental health consumers sampled throughout Portugal. Factor (PCA) analysis, internal consistency reliability, and test-retest reliability over 2 weeks (N = 33) showed good psychometric properties. The resulting six-factor structure with 48 items explains 48.88% of the total variance (KMO = 0.89; Bartlett p = .00). Internal consistency of the obtained dimensions ranges from .91 to .76. Associations of the measure with recovery, quality of life, and psychological distress scales add further evidence of construct validity. The adaptation of Nussbaum's framework stressed specific components that may enhance understanding and change within the community mental health system.

- Contextos comunitários favoráveis ao bem-estarPublication . Shinn, MarybethEste trabalho focaliza-se na “minimização dos erros contextuais” que significa a tendência para se ignorar a influência das zonas de residência e dos contextos comunitários nos comportamentos humanos. Este erro tem implicações na compreensão dos processos psicológicos e nas acções orientadas para a mudança social. Descreve-se um conjunto de modelos teóricos que explicam como as zonas de residência e os contextos comunitários estão associados a vários aspectos do bem-estar humano enfatizando as ligações entre os contextos e a saúde, o stress, os comportamentos de risco, as atitudes e o desenvolvimento infantil. Sugere-se assim, que muitos processos psicológicos podem verificar-se de forma diferenciada consoante os contextos e que os factores contextuais interferem nas características sócio-culturais dos indivíduos. As pessoas, por seu lado, podem modificar os contextos comunitários e a compreensão mais aprofundada dos efeitos dos contextos tudo dependendo de abordagens mais sofisticadas para os avaliar.
- Factors associated with providers’ work engagement and burnout in homeless services: A cross‐national studyPublication . Lenzi, Michela; Santinello, Massimo; Gaboardi, Marta; Disperati, Francesca; Vieno, Alessio; Calcagnì, Antonio; Greenwood, Ronni; Rogowska, Aleksandra; Wolf, Judith; Loubiere, Sandrine; Beijer, Ulla; Bernad, Roberto; Vargas-Moniz, Maria; Ornelas, José; Spinnewijn, Freek; Shinn, MarybethThe complexity of homeless service users' characteristics and the contextual challenges faced by services can make the experience of working with people in homelessness stressful and can put providers' well-being at risk. In the current study, we investigated the association between service characteristics (i.e., the availability of training and supervision and the capability-fostering approach) and social service providers' work engagement and burnout. The study involved 497 social service providers working in homeless services in eight different European countries (62% women; mean age = 40.73, SD = 10.45) and was part of the Horizon 2020 European study "Homelessness as Unfairness (HOME_EU)." Using hierarchical linear modeling (HLM), findings showed that the availability of training and supervision were positively associated with providers' work engagement and negatively associated with burnout. However, results varied based on the perceived usefulness of the training and supervision provided within the service and the specific outcome considered. The most consistent finding was the association between the degree to which a service promotes users' capabilities and all the aspects of providers' well-being analyzed. Results are discussed in relation to their implications for how configuration of homeless services can promote social service providers' well-being and high-quality care.
- Goals and principles of providers working with people experiencing homelessness: A comparison between housing first and traditional staircase services in eight european countriesPublication . Gaboardi, Marta; Lenzi, Michela; Disperati, Francesca; Santinello, Massimo; Vieno, Alessio; Tinland, Aurélie; Moniz, Maria João Vargas; Spinnewijn, Freek; O' Shaughnessy, Branagh; Wolf, Judith R; Bokszczanin, Anna; Bernad, Roberto; Beijer, Ulla; Ornelas, José; Shinn, MarybethThe implementation and adaptation of the Housing First (HF) model represented profound changes the structure and delivery, goals, and principles of homeless services. These features of homeless services directly influence providers, their work performance and the clients' outcomes. The present research, conducted in eight European countries, investigated how social providers working in HF or TS (Traditional Staircase) describe and conceptualize the goals and the principles of their services. Data were collected through 29 focus group discussions involving 121 providers. The results showed that HF and TS had similar and different goals for their clients in the following areas: support, social integration, satisfaction of needs, housing, and well-being. HF providers emphasized clients' autonomy and ability to determine their personal goals, with housing being considered a start on the path of recovery, while TS were more focused on individual clients' basic needs with respect to food, health and finding temporary accommodations. HF providers privileged the person-centered approach and housing as a right, while TS providers were more focused on helping everyone. Implications of the results are discussed as suggestions both for practice and for research.
- Using a modified version of photovoice in a European cross‐national study on homelessnessPublication . Gaboardi, Marta; Santinello, Massimo; Lenzi, Michela; Disperati, Francesca; Ornelas, José; Shinn, MarybethThis study proposes an innovative use of a modified version of photovoice for cross‐national qualitative research that allows participants to express their ideas, experiences, and emotions about a topic through photographic language. We examine factors affecting social service providers' work on people experiencing homelessness in Europe. We highlight five advantages of using photovoice in cross‐national research: visual language, methodological flexibility, participatory data analysis, the bottom‐up process, and the promotion of social change. Moreover, we identify key stages of the process: writing a detailed protocol for the implementation and fidelity of the projects, using two levels of data analysis, and disseminating the results. This study provides lessons learned for others who may want to use photovoice in cross‐national research.
