“…Practitioner adoption of evidence-based interventions for both treatment and prevention has been quite limited in a number of application areas, and the family/parenting area is no different (Biglan et al, 2003). Much of the services in the child and family area are non-evidence based (WebsterStratton & Taylor, 1998).…”

“…In both the prevention and treatment arenas, there is an accelerating emphasis on the promulgation of evidencebased interventions for the problems of children and families (Biglan, Mrazek, Carnine, & Flay, 2003;Kazdin, 1991;Ollendick & King, 2004;Prinz & Connell, 1997). The field of clinical psychology has approached this problem primarily, though not surprisingly, from a clinical perspective focusing on individual children and families.…”

Evidence-based treatments and preventive interventions in the child and family area have not met with widespread adoption by practitioners. Despite the high prevalence of child behavioral and emotional problems, many parents and families in need are not receiving or participating in services, and when they do, the most efficacious interventions are not what is usually provided. Simultaneously addressing the issues of low penetration and insufficient dissemination of evidence-based programming requires a population approach to parenting and family support and intervention. Process issues are important, particularly in relation to engagement of stakeholders, recruitment of practitioners, consideration of organizational factors, and use of media and communication strategies. This article discusses why there is a need for a population-based approach, provides a framework of how to conceptualize such an approach, and describes an example from our own work of a recently initiated prevention trial that illustrates a population-based approach in action. The rationale, structure, and goals of the Triple P System Population Trial are described in the context of the aforementioned population framework.

“…The growing number of evidence-based interventions reflects progress in the field of prevention science and its application to public health issues. 43,44,126,127 Reaching the potential suggested by recent advances will require careful attention to needed work indicated by this review, such as filling the gaps in the intervention evidence base, particularly for early tweens, late teens, and young adults who are not in college and for nonmajority populations, addressing critical research issues, and promulgating stronger, more consistently applied standards of evidence and reporting. In particular, it will require the application of emerging models for engaging consumers, providers, funders, and scientists in an enterprise oriented toward real-world impact.…”

Preventive Interventions Addressing Underage Drinking: State of the Evidence and Steps Toward Public Health Impact

The epidemiological features of underage drinking and evidence of its social, health, and economic consequences suggest compelling reasons for the development and dissemination of effective preventive interventions. To clarify the nature and extent of the current evidence base on preventive interventions addressing underage drinking, a review of the literature was conducted through extensive searches of the research literature on outcome evaluations, existing reviews of this body of outcome research (N ϭ 25), and summary reports of evidence on specific interventions. More than 400 interventions were identified and screened, and the evidence for 127 was reviewed. Criteria for the evaluation of evidence were established for intervention studies with alcohol-specific outcome measures for 3 developmental periods (Ͻ10, 10 -15, and 16 to Ն20 years of age). Ultimately, 12 interventions met criteria for "most promising" evidence and 29 met criteria for "mixed or emerging" evidence. Conducting this review revealed clear advances in the number of evidence-based interventions available and the quality of outcome research; however, much work remains to achieve greater public health impact through evidence-based interventions. This work should consider (1) the great need for intervention research related to understudied developmental phases, intervention domains (eg, family, school, community, and media), and populations (eg, early tweens, late teens, young adults not attending college, and nonmajority populations); (2) the critical importance of addressing key issues in research design and methods (eg, limited longitudinal studies, replication studies, and dissemination research); and (3) the need for improved consistency in application of evidence and reporting standards. Finally, we recommend the application of emerging consumer-oriented and community-participatory models for intervention development and research, designed to increase the likelihood of "real-world" public health impact through improved translation of intervention science into practice. M ANY OF THE published reports on outcomes of preventive interventions addressing underage drinking open with statements on the broad scope of the problem, based on epidemiological data and results from studies of the social, health, and economic consequences of underage drinking. It is eminently clear from such findings that the magnitude of the problem is great. In this country, lifetime prevalence rates of alcohol use among eighth-, 10th-, and 12th-graders are 41.0%, 63.2%, and 75.1%, respectively. 1 Prevalence rates for past 30-day use are substantial, at 17.1%, 33.2%, and 47.0% for the 3 grade levels. Of considerable concern are the levels of more-problematic types of use, including binge drinking and drunkenness. For example, the past 30-day rates of drunkenness among eighth-, 10th-, and 12th-graders in 2005 were 6.0%, 17.6%, and 30.2%, respectively. 1 It is noteworthy that these problematic levels of alcohol use occur worldwide. 2 There is extensive literatur...
