Summary
Children whose siblings were adjudicated were at risk for antisocial behaviors. The preventive effect of the modified Incredible Years Series program was examined in the study by randomly assigning high-risk preschoolers and their parents into either an intervention group or a control group. Results revealed significant effects of the intervention in observed child aggression and parental practices.
