Adults and adolescents, who as children, received day or residential treatment were followed up ten years after treatment completion. No differences were found between the two treatment modalities on follow-up ratings of personal and social adjustment. This pattern was not influenced by gender, IQ, or presenting problem. Overall, about two-thirds of the children demonstrated improvement at follow-up. As expected, individuals demonstrating higher levels of personal and social adjustment at initial assessment were functioning better at outcome. However, the magnitude of therapeutic gain was not significantly different for mild versus moderate-to-severe presenting problems. Suggestions for future research are included.
曾在儿童时期接受日间或住院治疗的成人及青少年在治疗结束十年后接受了随访。在个人和社会适应的随访评分方面,两种治疗方式之间未发现差异。这种模式不受性别、智商或初始问题的影响。总体而言,约三分之二的儿童在随访时表现出改善。正如预期的那样,在初始评估中表现出较高个人和社会适应水平的个体在随访时功能更好。然而,对于轻度与中度至重度初始问题,治疗效果的幅度没有显著差异。文中还包括了对未来研究的建议。
