Summary

The study will examine the extent to which a group motivational intervention (ME) impacts retention, treatment compliance, and long-term outcomes in families with a history of, or high risk for, child maltreatment.

Detailed description

The field of child abuse prevention faces not only the challenge of developing and disseminating effective treatments, but the problem of high attrition rates and treatment noncompliance.
