Scoping review examines indicators and predictors of social inclusion processes, suggesting a new model.
In literature, social inclusion has been addressed both as an outcome and as a process. While its multidimensionality has been widely reckoned, a unique definition or classification of the dimensions representing its indicators and of those fostering such processes is still lacking. Therefore, this scoping review addresses this gap by deepening the indicators and predictors of social inclusion processes across 44 scientific sources. Sources were retrieved from PsycINFO and Scopus; publication dates ranged from January 2011 to June 2023. The results endeavour to summarise the main indicators and predictors categorised as (a) concrete indicators, (b) psychosocial indicators, (c) psychosocial predictors and (d) concrete predictors. Based on this, a model of social inclusion processes is proposed, and the theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
