The analysis focused on assessment procedures, the application of a gender perspective, and a comparison of FPI practice between the 1930s and the 2020s. The central results indicate that value-oriented and moralizing comments were common in the FPI reports, reflecting contemporary gender norms. For example, the male perpetrator (M) was described as 'not a sound man' for failing to endure a marital situation, while the female perpetrator (W) was described as having a 'very immoral way of life.' The study suggests that certain behaviors, like alcohol consumption or rule-breaking, were interpreted through different gendered lenses. The authors conclude that historical FPIs from the 1930s used a holistic biopsychosocial and morality model, whereas modern FPIs, while more team-based and integrity-protecting, risk a more compartmentalized focus on overt symptoms, potentially losing the 'whole' person context crucial for complex cases.
