CCF Speaker Series Daniel S. Shaw, Ph.D. 1-23-2015

The Development of the Family Check-Up in Early Childhood Daniel S. Shaw, Ph.D. This talk will provide a review of basic research on early childhood predictors of conduct problems and an introduction about the Family Check-Up (FCU) as a means for filling a disconnect between early childhood predictors of conduct problems and their prevention, particularly among children at high risk for developing early-starting problem behavior. Data also will be provided on how the FCU has been applied to toddlers, reviewing results from two randomized controlled trials. Concluding comments will focus on Implications for use of the FCU in other early childhood settings serving children at-risk for early problem behavior.
