Twenty-four parents of oppositional preschoolers were randomly assigned to either a self-directed behavioral family intervention condition (SD) or to a waitlist control group (WL). The self-directed parent training program, based on self-regulation principles, consisted of a written information package and weekly telephone consultations for 10 weeks. At posttest, in comparison to the WL group, children in the SD group had lower levels of behavior problems on parent report measures of child behavior. At posttreatment, parents in the SD condition reported increased levels of parenting competence and lower levels of dysfunctional parenting practices as compared to parents in the WL condition. In addition, mothers reported lower levels of anxiety, depression, and stress as compared to mothers in the WL condition at posttreatment. Using mother's reports, gains in child behavior and parenting practices achieved at posttreatment were maintained at 4-month follow-up.
24名对立型学龄前儿童的家长被随机分配到自我指导行为家庭干预组（SD）或等待名单对照组（WL）。基于自我调节原则的自我指导家长培训计划包括一个书面信息包和为期10周的每周电话咨询。在后测中，与WL组相比，SD组儿童在家长报告的儿童行为测量中行为问题水平较低。在治疗后，与WL组的家长相比，SD组的家长报告养育能力水平提高，功能失调的养育行为水平降低。此外，与WL组的母亲相比，治疗后SD组的母亲报告焦虑、抑郁和压力水平较低。根据母亲的报告，治疗后在儿童行为和养育行为方面取得的进步在4个月的随访中得以维持。
