Social Interventions for Head Start Children with Behavioral Risks: Implementation and Outcomes.

Tankersley, Melody; And Others

Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, v4 n3 p171-81 Jul 1996

Effects of a school-based program to prevent antisocial behaviors that could lead to conduct disorder were assessed among 34 target students and 15 role-model peers in urban Head Start programs. Target students showed patterns of social interaction that began to mirror those of role-model peers, while nonparticipating control group students remained significantly different in their behaviors.
