Evaluation of the Primary Mental Health Project Model of Early Identification and Prevention of School Adjustment Problems.

Special Services in the Schools, v4 n3-4 p89-107 1988

A program was designed to prevent school adjustment problems in primary school children by identifying at-risk children using a behavior rating scale and training them in coping and self-expression skills. A study of the program's effectiveness with 26 children found no significant differences between experimental and control groups on behavioral, self-concept, academic, and intellectual criteria.
