Follow-up One Year after Parent-Child Interaction Training: Effects on Behavior of Preschool Children

Co-occurrence of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms with other psychopathology in young adults: parenting style as a moderator

“…Similar to previous findings that positive parenting such as warmth and positive involvement is associated with low rates of behavioral problems [85][86][87][88], we found that both parents' caring attitude was significantly associated with fewer anxiety and depression symptoms, and maternal care was further significantly associated with fewer ODD and CD symptoms. Associations between protecting parenting style Table 5 Linear regression models of Axis II symptoms on ADHD, parenting type, gender, and the interactions of ADHD with parenting style and gender.…”

Psychopharmacological and Other Treatments in Preschool Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Current Evidence and Practice

“…However, there was a wide variation in the study design, type of control groups, inclusion criteria, diagnostic measures, type of psychosocial intervention, method of intervention delivery, and outcome measures employed in the studies. Nine studies used a randomized parallel groups design with control groups ranging from wait-list, community treatment, combination treatment to minimal treatment Bor et al 2002;Corrin 2004;Jones et al 2007;McGoey et al 2005;Pisterman et al 1992;SonugaBarke et al 2001;Strayhorn and Weidman 1989;Strayhorn and Weidman 1991) and six studies did not employ any control group (Chang et al 2004;Danforth 1999;Drash et al 1976;Erhardt and Baker 1990;Henry 1987;Huang et al 2003). Eight of the nine controlled studies included only preschool children and four of these eight studies selected the preschoolers based on a DSM diagnosis of ADHD through clinical or structured parent interview (Bor et al 2002;Pisterman et al 1992;Sonuga-Barke et al 2001), and the other four selected preschoolers based on a rating scale cutoff.…”

Group-Based Parent Training for Preventing Mental Health Disorders in Children

“…The core objective of cognitive-behaviora l parent training programs is to alter those parent reinforcement contingencies that support the child's disruptive behaviors and the parent's punitive child management strategies. Parent training programs based on cognitive-behaviora l principles have been described by Tucker (1995), Webster-Stratton (1990), Strayhorn and Weidman (1991), and Anastopoulos and Barkley (1995).…”

“…To date, many parent training studies continue to be weakened by one of more of the following methodologica l problems: (1) small sample sizes, (2) lack of a control condition or nonrandom assignment to experimental groups, (3) inadequate use of follow-up to examine long-term maintenance of effects, (4) homogeneous samples, (5) poor attendance rates, and (6) high attrition rates (Barlow & Stewart-Brown, 2000;Thomas, 1999;Tucker & Gross, 1997). Nonetheless, several programs have documented ef cacy showing that, with some populations , they lead to signi cant improvements in parent-child outcomes that are sustainable up to at least one year post-intervention (Strayhorn & Weidman, 1991;Sutton, 1992;Tucker & Gross, 1997;Webster-Stratton, 1990). …”
