  • Interventions aimed to prevent emotional, conduct, and learning difficulties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the differential outcomes of home-visit interventions for parents and at-risk infants.
  • To improve research strategies in complex developmental intervention studies.

Main Methods:

  • Multiple research teams conducted separate, rigorous prevention/intervention studies.
  • Common measures and regular communication facilitated a collaborative approach.
  • Interventions involved home visits to identified parents.

Main Results:
