进行了一项预防试验，以评估一种基于气质的干预（INSILITARY到儿童的气质）相比，大声朗读注意力控制条件，在减少行为问题的内城儿童。参与者是148个内城一年级和二年级的孩子，他们的父母，和他们的46名教师，他们来自东北城市的六所学校。在基线时和每两周一次的家长日报上对家长进行访谈，直到干预阶段完成，以评估家庭中儿童问题行为的程度。采用儿童诊断性访谈的干扰性模块对父母进行基线访谈，并完成简明症状指数量表，评估父母抑郁状况;以父母抑郁作为协变量，进行重复测量的多变量协方差分析，以检查儿童在干预过程中的行为。为了测试INSIbilide对整个样本的影响，并确定干预是否对诊断为破坏性障碍的儿童与未接受诊断的儿童有不同的效果，检查了双向和三向相互作用，发现有显著性。在减少儿童的问题行为在家里的诊断和非诊断组的INSIRISK干预更有效，但表现出显着更大的疗效在诊断水平的儿童相比，那些谁是在正常水平。编辑的战略意义：作者描述了指导父母和教师如何调整他们的行为管理策略以适应每个孩子的气质的有前途的做法。有必要进行纵向随访的重复研究，以确定项目效应是否持续存在。
A prevention trial was conducted to evaluate a temperament-based intervention (INSIGHTS into Children's Temperament) as compared to a Read Aloud attention control condition in reducing behavior problems among inner city children. The participants were 148 inner-city first and second grade children, their parents, and their 46 teachers who were from six schools in a Northeastern city. Parents were interviewed on the Parent Daily Report at baseline and every two weeks until the completion of the intervention phase to assess the extent of child problem behaviors in the home. The parents also were interviewed at baseline with the Disruptive Module of the Diagnostic Interview for Children and completed the Brief Symptom Index to assess parental depression.A repeated measures multivariate analysis of covariance with parental depression as a covariate was conducted to examine the children's behavior over the course of the intervention. In order to test the impact of INSIGHTS for the overall sample and to determine whether the intervention was differentially effective for children diagnosed with a disruptive disorder versus those who did not receive a diagnosis, two and three-way interactions were examined and found to be significant. The INSIGHTS intervention was more effective than Read Aloud in reducing children's problem behaviors at home across both the diagnosed and non-diagnosed groups, but demonstrated a significantly greater efficacy among children who were at diagnostic levels compared to those who were within normal levels. Editors' Strategic Implications: The authors describe the promising practice of instructing parents and teachers on how to adapt their behavior management strategies to fit each child's temperament. Replication with a longitudinal follow-up will be necessary to determine whether program effects persist.
