This series focuses on the subject of measurements and indicators of children’s well being and their usage, within multiple domains and in diverse cultures. More specifically, the series seeks to present measures and data resources, analysis of data, exploration of theoretical issues, and information about the status of children, as well as the implementation of this information in policy and practice. By doing so it aims to explore how child indicators can be used to improve the development and the well being of children. With an international perspective the series will provide a unique applied perspective, by bringing in a variety of analytical models, varied perspectives, and a variety of social policy regimes. Children’s Well-Being: Indicators and Research will be unique and exclusive in the field of measures and indicators of children’s lives and will be a source of high quality, policy impact and rigorous scientific papers.
