Sponsor: Göteborg University
Summary
This project is the first to evaluate the effect and experience of the parent program AFFEKT, through a randomized controlled trial and qualitative study, within primary health care. The project will recruit 200 parents of children with externalizing behaviors, and evaluate the effect of AFFEKT and psychoeducation versus psychoeducation alone, on children's behaviors and mental health, and the parent's strategies and mental health. Through interviews the experience of AFFEKT will be investigated.
