Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br>The main parameters of this study are the change in behavior problems of the children in the VIPP-APP and the control group, the change in the advice about the necessity of out-of-home placement that the professionals make based on the regular care or VIPP-APP, and the change in the certainty of the advice.
Secondary Outcome Measures
