| Sumario: | [EN] The aim for this study was, on the one hand, to analyse the status of non-kinship foster care with contact visits between foster children and their biological family in the provinces of Malaga, Granada and Jaen. On the other hand, it was to evaluate the evolution of contact visits and possible associated variables. Participants were 212 children, 140 biological mothers and 155 biological fathers, and 156 foster families. The instrument used was the Child File Summary Form . Descriptive, frequency and non-parametric analyses were carried out. The results show: a) 98.1% of children had suffered maltreatment; b) great incidence of biological parents with problems of substance abuse; c) greater diversity in the foster family structure; d) 93.8% of children had visits with their nuclear family; e) in 57.6% of cases, visits showed no significant change; f) positive developments in visits are associated with high compliance with visits arrangement, monthly and weekly frequency and average level of supervision. The results indicate the need to improve the quality of visits. |
