Abstract

Abstract This evaluation inspected the degree of symptom improvement associated with the Developmental Trauma and Attachment Program for decreasing disruptive behavior symptoms among youth in residential treatment following traumatic experiences within domestic and international adoption and foster care systems. Participants were 82 youth (M age = 14.03 years) who were predominately born in the United States (n = 55) with 27 identifying with international domiciles. Analyses of pre–post data contrasts indicated statistically significant decreases in disruptive behavior symptoms from admission to discharge associated with small and medium effect sizes. Nearly 1 in 4 participants reported clinically significant changes associated with treatment, with about 1 in 3 reporting improvements, but not within the clinically significant range. Limitations to the generalization of findings and recommendations for future investigations are provided.
