Foster parents are often faced with serious externalizing behaviors of their foster child. These behavioral problems may induce family stress and are related to less effective parenting and often increase. Foster children with behavioral problems are also more at risk of placement breakdown. An intervention to support foster parents of young foster children with externalizing behaviors is necessary to improve the effectiveness of foster placements. Based on research on effective parenting interventions and special needs of foster children, a treatment protocol was developed. This paper describes theoretical foundations for the content and form of the intervention and gives an overview of the modular treatment protocol. Preliminary outcomes of this intervention as well as challenges and future developments and research activities are discussed.
寄养父母经常面临寄养儿童的严重外化行为。这些行为问题可能会导致家庭压力，并与不那么有效的育儿方式有关，而且往往会增加。有行为问题的寄养儿童也更有可能被安置失败。有必要对有外化行为的年轻寄养儿童的寄养父母进行干预，以提高寄养安置的效果。基于有效的育儿干预研究和寄养儿童的特殊需求，制定了一个治疗方案。本文描述了干预内容和形式的理论基础，并概述了模块化治疗方案。讨论了这种干预的初步结果以及面临的挑战、未来的发展和研究活动。
