Primaire uitkomstmaten
The main outcome measure will be ‘remaining in school’. Of each participant will be examined whether he/she dropped-out or remained at school. If students drop-out, the reason for drop-out will be examined (voluntary, involuntary, graduation).
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
The onset of mental health problems generally occurs between the ages of 16 and 23 – the years in which young people follow postsecondary education, which is a major channel in our society to prepare for a career and enhance life goals. Several studies have shown that students with mental health problems have a higher chance of early school leaving. Supported Education services have been developed to support students with mental health problems to remain at school. The current project aims to study the effect of an individually tailored Supported Education intervention on educational outcomes and recovery of students with mental health problems at a university of applied sciences and a community college. To that end, a mixed methods design will be used. This design combines quantitative research (Randomized Controlled Trial) with qualitative research (focus groups, monitoring, interviews). One hundred students recruited from the two educational institutes will be randomly allocated to either the intervention or control group.
Doel van het onderzoek
The group of students with mental health problems who receive the Supported Education intervention show less school dropout, better school functioning and recovery than the group of students with mental health problems who receive “support as usual”.
Onderzoeksopzet
Measurements will be done at baseline (T0), 6 months after T0 (T1), and 12 months after T0(T2).
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
Supported Education is a tailor made, personalized intervention, taking the individual's own educational goal as starting point of the intervention and assessing the personal critical skills and support to achieve their own educational goal. It is a manualized psychiatric rehabilitation intervention suitable for different mental health and educational contexts.
