BOLSONI-SILVA, Alessandra Turini; SILVEIRA, Fabiane Ferraz e MARTURANO, Edna Maria. Promoting parenting educational social skills in the prevention of behavior problems. Rev. bras. ter. comport. cogn. [online]. 2008, vol.10, n.2, pp.125-142. ISSN 1517-5545.
Given the importance of intervening in children’s and adolescents’ behavior problems, several intervention programs with parents were developed. This study aim to describe effects of a group intervention based on multiple evaluations and instruments that attempted to improve parental social competence and prevent behavior problems. Twelve mothers/fathers of children and adolescents and two mothers with adult children participated in the parenting program. Data collection for pre and pos-intervention evaluations and follow up investigated parental social educational skills (HSE-P), general social skills and behavior problems. During group sessions various themes about HSE-P were discussed, such as expressing positive feelings, having conversation, negotiating, establishing rules, and others. Results showed that the frequency of HSE-P and social skills improved whereas behavior problems decreased. Limitations and contributions of this research are presented.
