This study examined outcomes associated with the Family Check-Up (FCU), an adaptive, tailored, family-centered intervention to enhance positive adjustment of middle school youth and prevent problem behavior. The FCU intervention model was delivered to families in 3 public middle schools. The study sample comprised 377 families, and participants were randomly assigned to receive either the intervention or school as usual. Participation in the intervention was relatively high, with 38% of the families receiving the FCU. Participation in the intervention improved youth self-regulation over the 3 years of the study. Self-regulation skills, defined as effortful control, predicted both decreased depression and increased school engagement in high school, with small to medium effect sizes. The results have implications for the delivery of mental health services in schools that specifically target family involvement and parenting skills.
本研究考察了与家庭检查（FCU）相关的结果，FCU是一种适应性、个性化、以家庭为中心的干预措施，旨在促进初中青少年的积极适应并预防问题行为。FCU干预模式应用于3所公立初中的家庭。研究样本包括377个家庭，参与者被随机分配接受干预或照常上学。干预的参与率相对较高，38%的家庭接受了FCU。在研究的3年中，参与干预改善了青少年的自我调节能力。自我调节技能被定义为努力控制，它预测了高中阶段抑郁的减少和学校参与度的提高，效应量为小到中等。这些结果对学校提供专门针对家庭参与和育儿技能的心理健康服务具有启示意义。
