Parent Child Interaction

•
Parenting practices often associated with child outcomes
Outcome studies reflect important changes in the parent child interactions
that are long term and durable (Bell & Eyberg,2002)
Improvements in parenting skills
and attitudes eg: reflective
listening, more positive
parenting attitudes and
improved physical closeness
(McNeil & Hembree-Kigin,
2010)
Parent Child Interaction
● A review of 17 studies involving
628 preschoolers concluded that
involvement in PCI resulted in
significant improvements in child
behavior (Gallagher, 2003).
● Follow-up studies report that
treatment gains are maintained
over time (Hood & Eyberg, 2003).
● Adapted versions of PCIT prove
effective in treating other issues
(Johnson, Franklin, Hall, & Preito,
2000).
