Who Benefits and How Does It Work? Moderators and Mediators of Outcome in an Effectiveness Trial of a Parenting Intervention

Gardner, F., Hutchings, J., Bywater, T., and Whitaker, C. 2010. Journal of Clinical Child & Adolescent Psychology. DOI: 10:1080/15374416.2010.486315

Our study suggests that Incredible Years parenting programs can be as effective, or even more so, with the most disadvantaged and distressed families. However, to our knowledge, this is the first study to replicate and extend these findings in a multiagency effectiveness trial. This is significant because it means that nonspecialist staff working in a range of community services, who are neither part of a specialist team nor part of the program developer’s team can implement this program and achieve good outcomes even with the most hard-toreach families in a low-income community.
