Una aproximación al bienestar infantil en el acogimiento familiar chileno

Abstract

Este artículo se centra en el estudio del bienestar infantil en una muestra de 158 niños y niñas acogidos en familia extensa y externa pertenecientes a la Región Metropolitana de Chile. El instrumento central para la evaluación fueron Las Escalas de Bienestar Infantil (Magura y Moses, 1986). Los resultados muestran que en ambos tipos de familia de acogida se cubren de manera satisfactoria las necesidades básicas de los niños y niñas acogidos, aunque aún es posible mejorar en la dimensión de Disposición Parental y especialmente en el caso de las familias extensas acogedoras. Los datos también evidencian la relación existente entre el bienestar infantil y diferentes aspectos del funcionamiento familiar. La discusión destaca el papel primordial de la familia acogedora y la contribución del propio niño, pero también resalta la importancia del apoyo de otros actores del sistema ecológico del acogimiento, principalmente de los profesionales de los programas de acogida.

This article is focused in the study of child welfare in a sample of 158 boys and girls in care in kinship foster family and non-relatives foster care families from Metropolitan Region of Chile. The central instrument for evaluation was the Child Well-Being Scales (Magura y Moses, 1986). The results show that in both types of foster family, the basic needs of the foster boys and girls are satisfied, although, it is still possible to improve in dimension of the Parental Disposition and especially in the case of the kinship foster families. The data also show the relationship between the child welfare and different aspects of family functioning. The discussion highlights the primary role of kinship families, the children’s contribution and also the support of other actors in the ecological system of the foster care, mainly from professionals of foster care programs.
