The effectiveness of a parenting program with 394 Head Start mothers was examined. Nine Head Start centers were randomly assigned to either an experimental condition in which parents, teachers, and family service workers participated in the intervention or a control condition in which the regular Head Start program was offered. Mothers in the intervention group were observed at home to have significantly fewer critical remarks and commands, to use less harsh discipline, and to be more positive and competent in their parenting when compared with control mothers. Teachers reported that intervention mothers were more involved in their children's education and that their children were more socially competent. Intervention children were observed to exhibit significantly fewer conduct problems, less noncompliance, less negative affect, and more positive affect than control children. One year later most of the improvements were maintained.
对一项针对394名启智计划母亲的育儿项目的有效性进行了研究。九个启智中心被随机分配到两种情况之一：一种是实验条件，即家长、教师和家庭服务工作者参与干预；另一种是对照条件，即提供常规的启智计划。与对照组母亲相比，干预组的母亲在家中被观察到有明显更少的批评言论和指令，使用更少严厉的管教方式，并且在育儿方面更积极、更有能力。教师报告说，参与干预的母亲更多地参与孩子的教育，并且她们的孩子社交能力更强。观察发现，与对照组孩子相比，接受干预的孩子表现出的行为问题明显更少、不顺从行为更少、消极情绪更少，积极情绪更多。一年后，大部分改善得以保持。
