“…Using the standard normal approximation, standard errors (SE) were also estimated for each proportion. In addition, using metaPage 9 of 30 A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t 8 analysis for observational studies (Sutton et al, 1998), an overall PoU was determined. It is possible to combine the study proportions, using either a fixed effect model or a random effects meta-analysis model depending on the extent of heterogeneity between the point estimates of the included studies.…”

Our model estimates that around 9% of naloxone kits distributed are likely to be used for peer administration within the first three months of supply for every 100 PWUD trained. Future evaluations should directly compare different training structures to test relative effectiveness and use a series of fixed time periods (3, 6 and 12 months) to determine whether time since training affects rate of naloxone use.

“…The incorporation of methodological quality is strongly recommended by Moher et al (1999b) as well as Sutton Abrams et al (1998) and of particular importance in our analysis including a rather diverse body of studies. Moher et al (1998), replicating 11 published meta-analyses with consideration of trial quality, found an overestimation of intervention effects in low-quality studies.…”

A meta-analysis encompassing all studies evaluating the impact of the Triple P-Positive Parenting Program on parent and child outcome measures was conducted in an effort to identify variables that moderate the program's effectiveness. Hierarchical linear models (HLM) with three levels of data were employed to analyze effect sizes. The results (N=55 studies) indicate that Triple P causes positive changes in parenting skills, child problem behavior and parental well-being in the small to moderate range, varying as a function of the intensity of the intervention. The most salient findings of variables moderating the interventions' impact were larger effects found on parent report as compared to observational measures and more improvement associated with more intensive formats and initially more distressed families. Sample characteristics (e.g., child's age, being a boy) and methodological features (e.g., study quality) exhibited different degrees of predictive power. The analysis clearly identified several strengths of the Triple P system, most importantly its ability to effect meaningful improvement in parents and children. Some limitations pertain to the small evidence-base of certain formats of Triple P and the lack of follow-up data beyond 3 years after the intervention. Many of the present findings may be relevant to other evidence-based parenting programs.
