Adultification is defined as a two-fold process of socialization, whereby children act and behave in ways that suggest a much more mature development; based on social or cultural assumptions about how they should behave at a particular stage of development (Goff et al., 2014 as cited by The Georgetown Centre on Poverty and Inequality, 2017, p.4).Jamilia Blake calls for a more nuanced, race and gender sensitive approach to the conversation about the adultification of children and my proposed research aims to do this. By exploring factors that contribute to the adultification of black girls prior to entering local authority care, as well as the persistence of this phenomena whilst in care, this research will make a significant contribution to our understanding of this area, as well shining a light on this underrepresented groupThis research will provide useful information to support the development of care provision practice within local authorities and schools that better ensures that issues are identified and assessed in ways that more effectively protect and support vulnerable Black girls. The concept-map will contribute to the academic conversation around adultification, providing a perspective that recognises the multifaceted and interdependent nature of the factors that contribute to the adultification of black girls.

成人化被定义为一个双重的社会化过程，儿童的行为和行为方式表明一个更成熟的发展;基于社会或文化的假设，他们应该如何表现在一个特定的发展阶段（戈夫等人，2014年引用的乔治敦中心的贫困和不平等，2017年，第4页）。Jamilia布莱克呼吁一个更微妙的，种族和性别敏感的方法来谈论儿童的成人化和我提出的研究旨在做到这一点。通过探索导致黑人女孩在进入地方当局护理之前成年的因素，以及这种现象在护理中的持续性，这项研究将对我们对这一领域的理解做出重大贡献，这项研究将提供有用的信息，以支持地方当局和学校内的护理提供实践的发展，确保以更有效地保护和支持弱势黑人女孩的方式确定和评估问题。概念图将有助于围绕成人化的学术对话，提供一个认识到导致黑人女孩成人化的因素的多方面和相互依赖性的视角。
