Abstract

The aim of the study is to evaluate the results of “Limits”, a parenting training program which was implemented in a juvenile justice service by professionals from the Department of Justice. A controlled before and after design was undertaken to measure the effects of the program on the use of parental practices and parents’ perception of self-efficacy. Fifty-nine families with adolescents involved in the juvenile justice system participated either in an intervention group (n = 42 families) or in a waiting list group (n = 17 families). In order to triangulate the information, professionals and the target adolescents were also asked about the improvement of the parents in their parenting practices. A generalized linear model was used to compare the intervention and comparison groups. The findings demonstrate that the program had a positive impact on the intervention group with regards to the transfer of practices to their real life, especially those related to communication and family relationships. However, no significant changes were observed in parents’ perception of self-efficacy. The results are geared towards the improvement of future research evaluations using longitudinal designs.
青少年司法服务中父母培训项目“限制”的评估:结果与挑战
这项研究的目的是评估“限制”的结果,这是一项由司法部专业人员在少年司法服务机构实施的育儿培训方案。采用控制的前后设计来衡量该计划对父母实践的使用和父母自我效能感的影响。59个有青少年参与少年司法系统的家庭参加了干预组(n = 42个家庭)或等候名单组(n = 17个家庭)。为了对信息进行三角测量,专家和目标青少年也被问及父母在育儿实践方面的改进。采用广义线性模型对干预组和对照组进行比较。研究结果表明,该计划对干预组在将实践转移到他们的现实生活方面产生了积极的影响,特别是那些与沟通和家庭关系有关的实践。然而,父母的自我效能感并没有明显的变化。结果是面向改进未来的研究评价使用纵向设计。
