目的：估算建立公共卫生基础设施的成本，以提供一个全人口的基于证据的多层次育儿干预系统，以加强育儿;减少儿童虐待和强制性育儿做法的风险;并减少幼儿行为和情绪问题的患病率。方法：使用数据从9个南卡罗来纳州县，本研究探讨了成本的服务机构培训范围广泛的供应商。该论文使用所服务的儿童和家庭数量的数据，估计了足以治疗假设社区中所有儿童和家庭的培训提供者的总成本。结果：通用媒体和通信部分的成本总计不到每个儿童1.00美元人口。培训服务提供者提供在其他干预水平的成本是相当温和的（11.74美元，每个孩子的基础上）。结论：这项研究表明，一个人口广泛的系统，有效的养育计划，旨在减少儿童的行为和情绪问题，促进有效的养育是相当可行的。粗略的估计表明，这些成本可以在一年内通过减少虐待和忽视率10%来收回。(c)2007爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Objectives: To estimate the costs of building a public health infrastructure for delivering a population-wide evidence-based multilevel system of parenting interventions to strengthen parenting; reduce risk for child maltreatment and coercive parenting practices; and reduce the prevalence of early child behavioral and emotional problems.Methods: Using data from 9 South Carolina counties, this study examines the costs to service agencies of training a wide range of providers. Using data on the number of children and families served, the paper estimates the total costs of training providers sufficient to treat all children and families in a hypothetical community.Results: The costs of the universal media and communication component totaled less than $1.00 per child in the population. The costs of training service providers to deliver at other intervention levels were quite modest ($11.74 on a per child basis).Conclusions: This study shows that a population-wide system of efficacious parenting programs aimed at reducing child behavioral and emotional problems and promoting effective parenting is quite feasible. Rough estimates suggest that these costs could be recovered in a single year by as little as a 10% reduction in the rate of abuse and neglect. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
