  • Clinical Psychology
  • Behavioral Therapy

Background:

  • Aggressive behavior and anger are significant concerns in child mental health.
  • Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) is a recognized approach for addressing behavioral issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a group cognitive-behavioural therapy program for children experiencing anger and aggression.
  • To assess the impact of the intervention on children's self-reported anger and parent-reported aggression.

Main Methods:

  • 68 children (aged 7-13) and their parents participated in 12 group sessions.
  • Children completed the Children's Inventory of Anger (CIA); parents completed the Children's Hostility Inventory (CHI).
  • Quantitative data were collected pre- and post-treatment, analyzed using t tests and ANCOVA.

Main Results:

  • Children reported a significant decrease in anger intensity (CIA).
  • Parents reported a significant reduction in their children's aggression (CHI-Aggression) and hostility (CHI-Hostility).
  • Results were significant at P < 0.0001 for anger and hostility, and P < 0.01 for aggression.

Conclusions:

  • The group cognitive-behavioural therapy program demonstrated effectiveness in reducing children's anger and aggression.
  • These preliminary findings suggest the program's potential benefits for managing childhood behavioral issues.
  • Further controlled research is recommended to validate these outcomes.
