Objective: Behavioral problems in youth pose a serious mental health and social issue with early-onset problems associated with particular risk for continuation across the lifespan. Given these risks, social workers in clinical practice must be knowledgeable about empirically validated treatments in this area. Method: A literature review was conducted on all family-based interventions with preschool behavior problems to determine the efficacy of various approaches. Using these search criteria, only behaviorally oriented parent-training interventions were located. Results: Both group and individual parent-training approaches have been found effective over control conditions. When considering cognitive-behavioral adjunctive packages to parent training, more advantages are posed for child rather than parent supplements. Conclusions: Not only should social workers be using empirically validated approaches but they can also be involved in evaluating other family-based interventions with preschool behavior problems.
