Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>The primary outcome measures of the study are possible moderating effects of<br /><br>genetic polymorphisms on the intervention effect. The intervention effect is: a<br /><br>significantly stronger decrease of externalizing behavior problems over time<br /><br>and/ or a significantly stronger increase in prosocial behavior in the IC than<br /><br>in de CC, with an alpha of .05. Externalizing problem behavior will be measured<br /><br>with the ECBI and DPICS. Prosocial behavior will be measured with the SSRS and<br /><br>DPICs.</p><br>

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>The secondary outcome measures are the observed child behavior in parent-child<br /><br>interactions. This in particular concerns the behavioral and affective<br /><br>responses of the child on negative/ corrective/ punitive signals and positive/<br /><br>encouraging/ rewarding signals from parents, and behavioral processes that are<br /><br>underlying the moderating effects of the polymorphisms. Furthermore, parenting<br /><br>measurements (both observed as well obtained by questionnaires) will be<br /><br>included as secundary outcome measures. </p><br>
