▪ After the first 3 years, the children in the intervention group showed better social interaction skills and peer relations and less aggressive behavior in the classroom than children in the control group, who received no intervention.
▪ After 5 years, 22 percent of the intervention group had conduct disorder compared to 29 percent of the control group.As adolescents, those in the intervention group reported less antisocial behavior and were less likely to seek outpatient care for mental health problems.
▪ At age 25, those in the intervention group reported fewer internalizing, externalizing, and substance abuse symptoms (59 percent)than those in the control group (69 percent), as well as fewer crime convictions, less risky sexual behavior, and higher well-being (Conduct Problems Prevention Research Group, 2015).
