Many advances have been made in the development, evaluation, and dissemination of evidenced-based psychological treatments and preventative interventions for a wide range of child and adolescent problems. Although treatments and interventions are about the children engaging in a certain behavior, those interventions are designed, guided, provided, managed, and monitored by one or more 鈥渟ignificant adults鈥� in a child鈥檚 life (e.g., caregivers, educators, and mental health providers).

Therefore, it is imperative that more research, provider training and practice be focused on the critical role that the characteristics and behaviors of those significant adults play in the efficacy and effectiveness of treatments and interventions. During today鈥檚 talk, Dr. P谩ez will present a framework for understanding the contributions of significant adults鈥� behaviors to the success of interventions with children and youth. Also, she will provide several practical strategies for assessing, addressing or guiding the relevant behaviors of the significant adults.
