Abstract

Previous research data suggest that the interventions based on solution-focused approach have a potential to increase adolescents' self-efficacy. Nevertheless, no research has attempted to study the impact of the solution-focused interventions on self-efficacy in foster care settings, where a substantial level of this personality characteristic is crucial for successful adjustment. Moreover, there is a lack of evidence that an increase of foster care adolescents' self-efficacy during psychological interventions relates to better outcomes in their broader psychosocial functioning. A present study is aimed at evaluating changes of foster care adolescents' self-efficacy and psychological functioning during the solution-focused self-efficacy enhancement group intervention for adolescents. In addition, the question is raised whether the anticipated increase in self-efficacy will be related to positive changes in psychological functioning after the intervention.
