What Type of Kids "Succeeded" in Behrens Study?

<< < (22/29) > >>

Dysfunction Junction:
Not to mention no reputable outlet would publish it.  That's why it's "self-published" on a doc host site.  If it isn't peer reviewed and published in a reputable scientific journal, it's worthless.  Hence it only appears on Aspen marketing sites and a doc host site where anyone can upload anything.  It's junk.

Whooter:
Here is another interesting tidbit:

Over 150 professional publishers including Random House, Wiley, Workman, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Pearson, Harvard University Press and Stanford University Press are now associated with  SCRIBD  .

Please stay on topic.  You can start another thread to profess your love of SCRIBD.

--- Quote from: "Whooter" ---The “typical” client in the programs is a white, upper-middle to upper-class,
16 year old male or female with prior treatment failures, who is functioning below average
academically and has multiple psycho-social problems. The most common problems treated are
disruptive behavior, substance use, and mood disorders. Most adolescents do not have a legal
record.

Wow....so kids that truly needed help, not quack "therapy", didn't fare so well. Hmmmm. And why send a kid away if they're not in real trouble? Why were these kids that "had lower levels of psycho-social symptoms at admission (adolescent report), the absence of a mood disorder," even there in the first place? Parents....do your damn job and quit farming it out to strangers!

Anne Bonney:

--- Quote from: "Whooter" --- The kids who are most likely to succeed would be those who had the lower levels of problems (which makes sense).

Then why are they there in the first place?  Why are parents outsourcing their jobs?
