Abstract

FISHER, Philip A.  and  GILLIAM, Kathryn S.. Research into theory into practice: an overview of family based interventions for child antisocial behavior developed at the Oregon Social Learning Center. Clínica y Salud [online]. 2012, vol.23, n.3, pp.247-259. ISSN 2174-0550.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/cl2012a16.

Although many psychotherapeutic approaches exist for treating troubled children and their families, not all have been evaluated to be effective through research. Moreover, among those that have been determined to be "evidence-based", few have followed as coherent and rigorous a path of rigorous scientific investigation as the interventions that have been developed at the Oregon Social Learning Center. As such, these interventions serve as a model of "research to theory to practice" that may not only be employed to support families with children in need of treatment, but may also guide other programs of treatment development. This is the story of how this work has unfolded over the past four decades.

Keywords : children therapy; family therapy; foster care.
