Study of Edwin Spijkers: Effectiveness of Primary Care Triple P not significantly better than usual care.

The Australian educational program Triple P offers parental support for children with psychosocial problems. However, the effectiveness of this program has no statistically significant advantage over usual care, according to the study of Edwin Spijkers. This study was a collaboration between the Health Sciences department and northern Area Health Authorities.

The results are published as a Prepub by BMC Medicine: Effectiveness of Primary Care Triple P on child-psychosocial problems in preventive child healthcare: a randomized controlled trail
