BACKGROUND
Outdoor behavioral healthcare (OBH) treatment offers an alternative to parents of youth who are treatment-resistant or avoidant.
METHOD
The current study evaluated OBH therapeutic outcomes. The sample was 190 adolescents (M = 15.69) presenting for treatment between 2006 and 2008. To be eligible, participants had to be between the ages of 13 and 17 years and be admitted to one of the three OBH programs for mental health intervention. Primary study hypotheses were that OBH treatment would be associated with a reduction in psychiatric symptomatology from baseline to post-treatment and second, that the OBH intervention would be associated with the maintenance of the hypothesized treatment gains.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
Findings were consistent with hypotheses, suggesting that youth demonstrated significant symptomatic reductions and maintained these improvements over a 12-month follow-up period.
背景
户外行为健康护理（OBH）治疗为那些对抗治疗或逃避治疗的青少年的父母提供了一种替代方案。
方法
当前研究评估了OBH治疗的效果。样本为2006年至2008年间前来接受治疗的190名青少年（平均年龄M = 15.69岁）。符合条件的参与者年龄必须在13至17岁之间，并被纳入三个心理健康干预的OBH项目之一。主要研究假设为，一是OBH治疗将与从基线到治疗后的精神症状减轻相关；二是OBH干预将与维持假设的治疗效果相关。
结果与结论
研究结果与假设一致，表明青少年在12个月的随访期内症状显著减轻，并维持了这些改善。
