The Psychosocial Report For Adoption In Spain

Abstract

This article presents the historical evolution of the psychosocial report, which has been the principal document which psychosocial professionals have done from their beginnings to the present day.Evolution towards other required formats in the civil judicial environment, such as the expert report, directly related with judicial approaches to family conflicts and with adoption processes.We show the developments and figures in terms of adoptions in Spain, which show the stability presented by annual national adoption data in Spain, in extant figures from the last decade along with the drop in figures referring to international adoptions in the same period.After showing what some research says about Spain adoption and the studies published on the theme, along with its early media repercussions which were the fruit of failure to meet intended expectations, a series of action proposals and professional interventions were carried out.
