Teen triple P: An evaluation utilising a within-participant designWetherall, Timothy Peter January 2010 (has links)
Adolescence is a stage that brings about multiple developmental changes for
an individual. Parents of adolescent children often find these changes
challenging. Parenting programmes have been created however, to help
alleviate some of these problems. The review of the literature in this article
selects and reviews a few parenting programmes that focus on the
adolescent population. The current study then focuses specifically on one in
particular; Teen Triple P and its use with 4 families. The participants included
were a community sample with identifiable, but non-diagnosable, behavioural
problems between the ages of 12-13 years old. Using a triangulation method
of results; including a multiple-baseline of behaviour monitoring, parental and
youth self-reports, and an observational task, the current study evaluates the
effectiveness of Teen Triple P. The results indicate that notable changes
were observed and reported in young person and parental behaviour for
three of the four families. The other family encountered a crisis prior to the
measures being completed at post-intervention which may have influenced
their findings. Conclusions regarding this study, limitations, and future
focuses for research are also discussed.
