How Long Is Long Enough? Outcomes for a School-based Prevention Program.
McConaughy, Stephanie H.; Kay, Pamela J.; Fitzgerald, Martha
Exceptional Children, v67 n1 p21-34 Fall 2000
One-year versus two-year outcomes were compared for a school-based prevention project for 82 children at risk for emotional disturbance. Matched pairs of children were assigned to either Parent Teacher Action Research (PTAR) teams or a control group. Significant differences favoring the PTAR group were found, especially following year two. Results support more long-term implementation of prevention programs. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
