From my initial literature review it is clear that poverty and homelessness co-occur in UK society, with homelessness seemingly being determined by systemic inequalities that subsequently affect quality of family relationships and influence individual wellbeing and their decisions to engage in risky behaviours. It is also apparent that there is a broad range of theory about homelessness which is rarely drawn either from individuals experiencing it or those working closest to support them. The proposed preliminary research questions are: (1) What are the leading determinants of individuals becoming homeless? (2) To what extent is homelessness an issue of social justice: How important are individual, familial, social, financial, educational and psychological factors? (3) Does the perception of the responsibility of social injustice, individual, and family factors in determining homelessness differ between those experiencing it, support workers, and the general public? The current research will examine homelessness journeys from three different angles and report: Primarily, the direct experience of homeless individuals; secondly, the experience of professional third sector support staff and volunteers; thirdly, perceptions of homelessness from people of differing backgrounds in the general public. There will be three study phases which consider journeys into homelessness, journeys back into stable accommodation and public perceptions of homelessness. All participants will be over the age of 18. For the purposes of the current research 'homelessness' will include rough sleeping, sofa-surfing and individuals residing in temporary accommodation. A mixed methods approach will be taken consisting of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. All interviews will be recorded and transcribed verbatim.

从我最初的文献回顾中可以清楚地看到，贫困和无家可归在英国社会中同时发生，无家可归似乎是由系统性的不平等决定的，这些不平等随后影响家庭关系的质量，影响个人的福祉及其从事危险行为的决定。同样明显的是，关于无家可归的理论有很多种，但很少来自经历过无家可归的个人或最接近他们的工作人员。初步研究的问题是：（1）个人成为无家可归者的主要决定因素是什么？(2)无家可归在多大程度上是一个社会正义问题：个人、家庭、社会、经济、教育和心理因素有多重要？(3)社会不公正，个人和家庭因素在决定无家可归的责任的看法不同的经历，支持工作者，和一般公众？目前的研究将从三个不同的角度审查无家可归的旅程，并报告：第一，无家可归者的直接经验;第二，专业的第三部门支助人员和志愿者的经验;第三，普通公众中不同背景的人对无家可归的看法。将有三个研究阶段，考虑无家可归的旅程，返回稳定住所的旅程和公众对无家可归的看法。所有参与者将年满18岁。就目前的研究而言，“无家可归者”包括露宿街头、在沙发上冲浪和住在临时住所的人。将采取混合方法，包括问卷和半结构化访谈。所有访谈都将被记录和逐字记录。
