Young children's voices have been nearly absent in the study of belonging during the early years.

The importance of conducting research "with" young children…

Ann-Cathrin Faldet; Kari Nes – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2024
Changing views on childhood and children's rights entail an increasing demand for listening to children's voices, even in research. "All" children are, in principle, seen as vulnerable participants in research, but our concern is the particularly vulnerable children. By listening to them, researchers increase the chances of contributing…

We investigated the well-being, emotions, and COVID-19-related attitudes of 87 Norwegian elementary children (42 boys, 45…
