在白人，非洲裔美国人，西班牙裔和亚洲母亲的低收入样本中，他们的孩子参加了“先声夺人”项目，评估了“不可思议的岁月育儿计划”的有效性。将来自两项先前干预研究的数据[Webster-Stratton（1998）Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology，66（5），715-730; Webster-Stratton et al.（in press）Journal of Clinical Child Psychology]合并，得到23个Head Start中心的634个家庭（370个高加索人，120个非洲裔美国人，73个亚洲人，71个西班牙裔）的样本。中心进行匹配，并随机分配到实验条件（8-12周的每周2小时的育儿班），或控制条件（常规的头开始计划没有育儿组）。在这两种情况下的家庭进行了评估，使用家庭观察的亲子互动和父母报告的养育方式和纪律策略和儿童行为问题的秋季（基线）和春季（干预后）的儿童的头开始一年。一年后对家庭进行了重新评估。治疗后，干预母亲被观察到更积极，少的关键，更一致，更有能力在他们的养育比对照组的母亲。此外，干预父母的孩子表现出更少的行为问题比对照组的孩子。不同种族之间的治疗反应差异很小，并且没有超过偶然预期的数量。来自所有群体的父母在育儿计划之后都报告了很高的满意度。结果表明，不可思议的岁月计划是由不同的人群接受和有效。
The effectiveness of the Incredible Years Parenting Program was evaluated in a low-income sample of Caucasian, African American, Hispanic, and Asian mothers whose children were enrolled in Head Start. Data from two prior intervention studies [Webster-Stratton (1998) Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 66(5), 715-730; Webster-Stratton et al. (in press) Journal of Clinical Child Psychology] were combined, yielding a sample of 634 families (370 Caucasian, 120 African American, 73 Asian, 71 Hispanic) across 23 Head Start centers. Centers were matched and assigned randomly to either an experimental condition (8-12 weeks of weekly 2-hr parenting classes), or a control condition (the regular Head Start Program without parenting groups). Families in both conditions were assessed using home observations of parent-child interactions and parent reports of parenting style and discipline strategies and child behavior problems in the fall (baseline) and spring (postintervention) of the children's Head Start year. Families were reassessed 1 year later. Following treatment, intervention mothers were observed to be more positive, less critical, more consistent, and more competent in their parenting than were control mothers. Additionally, children of intervention parents were observed to exhibit fewer behavior problems than were control children. Differences in treatment response across ethnic groups were few, and did not exceed the number expected by chance. Parents from all groups reported high satisfaction levels following the parenting program. Results indicate that the Incredible Years Program is accepted by and effective with diverse populations.
