Why the Centre: USA and UK – 1990s
USA few publicly funded services but lots of high quality research
UK publicly funded health and education services but little demand for outcome evaluation and little quality research
My goal to bring evidence based services to Wales and beyond

Developing and researching the Intensive Treatment
programme 1990s A parenting programme for parents of CAMHS
referred children with conduct disorder Coaching, video feedback and goal setting
compared with standard CAMHS support Coaching programme worked best on all
measures, child behaviour, parental mental health
Long term, four year outcomes still successful but standard CAMHS children reverted to original levels of problems

Intensive treatment programme developed into a
programme for health visitors Health visitors trained in observation,
case analysis, key parenting skills They each identified a child and
worked with them using the programme Results again demonstrated significant
improvements in child behaviour and maternal mental health
Significant improvements in HV knowledge of behavioural principles 7

IY Parenting Programme: research
completed•Welsh Sure Start study: short- and long-term
outcomes, outcomes for children at risk of adhd, mediators and moderators of change,
maternal depression outcomes, key group leader behaviours
•Pathfinder project: parenting 8 – 13 year olds outcomes
•Toddler Programme: 1 – 2 yos, outcomes•Nursery Staff Programme: outcomes

![Page 9: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Sure Start research project; short and longer term outcomes
Short term significant effects occurred relative to controls on all measures:
For parents:Reduced maternal depression maintained to 18 monthsReduced observed negative parenting and increased
positive parenting maintained to 18 monthPSI - parental stress levels BDI - depression levels (clinical
effect size = .59)For target children:ECBI intensity and total problem scores showed significant
reductions at 6, 12 and 18 months and 3 and 4 yearsKendall SCRS - self-control Conners – hyperactivity For sibling nearest in age to index child:ECBI problem, ECBI intensity
![Page 10: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Other outcomes from the Sure Start study
Significant improvements in inattentive and hyperactive behaviour for the 60+% of children in the clinical range for these problems (Jones)
Leader skills, praise and reflective statements are mirrored in parents behaviour (Eames)
Changes in parenting behaviour mediate changes in child behaviour (Gardner)
All parents, young, single, depressed, level of child problems all did equally well (Gardner)
Improvements in depression mediate child behaviour improvements (Hutchings and Williams)

IY Foster Carer project More children in foster care and more with
challenging behaviour Children’s behaviour problems contribute to
foster placement breakdown 46 foster carers in three counties in Wales
participated (2:1 intervention to control) Results: significant reductions in child
behaviour problems and carer stress and depression
Subsequent publication of issues to considered in working with carers using the IY parent programme

![Page 15: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Birmingham Brighter Futures project
Birmingham: biggest local authority in Europe RCT of three programmes (IY, TripleP, PATHS)
done by Dartington Social Research Unit IY - a replication of Welsh Sure Start Study (161
three and four year olds at risk of emotional and behavioural problems)
CEBEI provided training and supervision for the IY leaders (Judy, Bridget, Sue)
Results - significant improvements in child behaviour on the SDQ and ECBI and a strong and significant improvement in self-reported parenting skills on the O’Leary Parenting Scale
![Page 16: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Current situation in Birmingham
An IY administrator for the City We still provide training and supervision, 15
new staff trained this year 12 certified leaders, 5 people proceeding to
peer coach training, mentor plans to bring programme in-house
A 16 area locality model, either 2 or 3 groups per locality per year dependent upon level of need
Currently 20 groups running the 14 week basic programme.
![Page 17: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Pathfinder Early Intervention project
Six Authorities in England delivering IY School Aged programme with 8-13 yr olds
First trial of programme with high-challenge children in this older age range
Training and supervision co-ordinated by CEBEI (Judy, Bridget, Sue)
18 session programme (IY School Age Basic + Advanced adult relationship programmes)
Significant improvements in child behaviour, parental depression, parenting skills at 6-month FU
![Page 18: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Additional analyses Mediator – improvements in parenting skills
mediated improvements in child behaviour
Moderator – all of the normal risk factors, teenage parent, family history of drug/alcohol use, parental depression, single parenthood or poverty moderated outcome, did equally well
Only family history of crime moderated outcome with these families demonstrating poorer outcomes
![Page 19: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Gwynedd ESCAPE evaluationCeri Ellis
Escape: a six-session programme for parents of conduct problem teenagers (10-18 yrs)
Programme aims: to increase school attendance and reduce offending behaviour
No previous good evidence of efficacy Gwynedd funded evaluation but after
commencement of the programme Evaluation of outcomes from 3 groups, 2 in
Bangor, 1 in Porthmadog (N=21)
![Page 20: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Conclusions Gwynedd recognised the need for evaluation Difficult to generalise findings, pre-post measures
collected by leaders and a small sample Significant improvements but still in clinical range
so prospects of maintenance of gains limited Leaders were highly skilled with additional training
(e.g. IY) and made additions to programme Effective programmes with this target population
are longer and involve both parents and adolescents
Should be emphasis on providing families with effective interventions that yield sustained results
![Page 21: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Literature review of programmes for parents of teenagers with challenging behaviour
Gwynedd Council commissioned a review of evidence-based parent programmes for parents of high challenge teenagers
Undertaken by Suzy Clarkson
Ten programmes reviewed, Multi-systemic Therapy*, Functional Family Therapy*Strengthening Families Programme 10-14*, Parents Plus Adolescents Programme, Incredible Years (8 -13 years), Standard Teen Triple P, Take 3, STOP, Living with Teenagers, ESCAPE* Blueprint programmes with evidence for this population
![Page 22: Update on the activities of the Centre for Evidence Based Early Evidence](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568166ff550346895ddb659b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Conclusions Parenting programmes for conduct disorder
show greatest impact as compared to other interventions but results decrease with increasing child age
Effective programmes for this age range (MST; FFT; SPT 10-14) are all Blueprints for Violence Prevention and work with the whole family, parents and adolescents, are more sustained and have significant impact on adolescent emotion regulation and behaviour
Fidelity has a significant impact on positive outcomes
