Efficacy of an Integrated Intervention to Treat Maternal Depression and Children's Behavior Problems: A Transactional Perspective
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch up and Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch up Plus Depression Treatment for Maternal Depression and Child Behavior Problem. Completed, enrolled 76 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Maternal depression influences the development of children's behavior problems and vice versa; however most interventions singularly address maternal depression or children's behavior problems rather than both. This project assesses the efficacy of an intervention that treats both mothers and children in an integrated manner. Effects are expected to disrupt the reciprocal relations that perpetuate maternal and child mental health problems over time.
