This study examined the impact of the Family Check-Up (FCU) and linked intervention services on reducing health-risk behaviors and promoting social adaptation among middle school youth. A total of 593 students and their families were randomly assigned to receive either the intervention or middle school services as usual. Forty-two percent of intervention families engaged in the service and received the FCU. Using complier average causal effect analyses, engagement in the intervention moderated intervention outcomes. Families who engaged in the intervention had youth who reported lower rates of antisocial behavior and substance use over time than did a matched control sample. Results extend previous research indicating that a family-centered approach to supporting youth in the public school setting reduced the growth of antisocial behavior, alcohol use, tobacco use, and marijuana use throughout the middle school years.
本研究考察了家庭检查（FCU）和相关干预服务对减少中学生健康风险行为和促进社会适应的影响。共有 593 名学生及其家庭被随机分配接受干预或中学常规服务。42%的干预家庭参与了服务并接受了 FCU。使用遵从平均因果效应分析，干预的参与度调节了干预的结果。与匹配的对照组相比，参与干预的家庭的青少年报告的反社会行为和物质使用率随着时间的推移而降低。研究结果扩展了先前的研究，表明在公立学校环境中以家庭为中心的方式支持青少年可以减少整个中学阶段反社会行为、酒精使用、烟草使用和大麻使用的增长。
