The purpose of the present study was to assess the effectiveness of a parent training program designed to alter interactions of parents and their noncompliant children. Mother-child pairs were assigned to either a treatment or a waiting list control group. Parent training was conducted in a controlled learning environment. The following pre- and posttreatment measures were collected: clinic observational data, home observational data, and parent verbal report measures. The results indicated that both parents and children in the treatment group demonstrated multiple behavior changes in the clinic and home, whereas the control group did not change over the waiting period. Both treatment and control group mothers demonstrated positive changes on most of the parent verbal report measures.
