6. OZAWA Eiji, IMAMURA Chikako, Social adaptation in maltreated youth leaving from residential care, The 15th European Congress of Psychology, 2017.07, In Japan, residential care is the most common form of out-of-home care for children. More than half of those in residential care have experienced maltreatment prior to placement. Moreover, previous studies indicate youth leaving from residential care tend to be maladapted. The purpose of this study is to reveal characteristics of social adaptation in youth leaving care and relationships between their experience of maltreatment. Surveys were administrated to care workers at 89 residential care institutions for children in Japan. That included experience of maltreatment before entering institutions, course selection after leaving care, statements of continuing work or school in youth. Data were analyzed from 1089 youths. The ratio of enrollment to higher education in youth leaving from residential care was 21.9% (n = 239), lower than the ratio of all youth in Japan (79.8%). There was no significant difference of continuance rates between the youth who experienced maltreatment or not. Among youth getting a job, 33.9% (n = 282) quit their job within three years. In addition, the turnover rate of maltreated youth was significantly higher than the youth with no experience of maltreatment. Results indicate a huge challenge for course selection and social adaptation in youth leaving from residential care. Experience of maltreatment continues to affect working youth. Therefore, it is important to provide continual care from in care to after care especially for maltreated children..
