-De Graaf et al. (2008) conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the effectiveness of the
Triple P programme on children with behavioural problems. The authors investigated the
effects of level 4 of the intervention programme, and found it to be a suitable and
worthwhile intervention in the prevention and treatment of behaviour problems in
children. It was found that these effects lasted 6-12 months following intervention. De
Graaf et als (2008) meta-analysis also revealed that Triple P can be used successfully in
a wide and diverse range of families, types of problems, delivery formats and ages of
children.
-Bodenmann et al. (2008) also investigated the efficacy of Triple P (on a European
sample) for improving parenting and child behaviour. They found that Triple P is an
effective method for strengthening parenting competence and for improving childrens
behaviour. Parents reported improved parenting behaviour, improved satisfaction and
confidence in their own parenting and a reduction in reports of disruptive behaviour.
Leung et al. (2003), in a study carried out in Hong Kong, looked at the effectiveness of
level 4 of the programme with children aged 3-7 years who displayed conduct problems.
Again, Triple P was successful in reducing disruptive behaviour problems in children
(Leung et al., 2003). The programme was also successful in reducing dysfunctional
parenting and increasing parental competence, suggesting that the Triple P programme
is acceptable and effective in a different cultural context.
-Sanders et al. (2007) investigated the outcomes of the three Triple P types three years
after intervention when compared to interventions that target changing parenting skills
alone. Sustained improvements in disruptive behaviour were found 3 years postintervention in all Triple P variants.
