Crucially, in general, interventions and programmes pay scant attention to fathers — for example, few parenting interventions address father - engagement, or consider men's role in parenting (and child maltreatment); evaluated programmes aiming to promote child wellbeing or prevent violence tend to be exclusively mother - focused.

Studies of home visiting's effectiveness as an intervention designed to prevent child maltreatment demonstrate some promise, but compared to the number of studies conducted that measure child maltreatment, risk for maltreatment, or protective factors, there are far more findings of no effects than reductions in maltreatment and improvements in child and family well - being.

In turn, families will receive interventions that meet the highest levels of evidence for preventing child maltreatment, and they and the public can be confident that the programs they participate in and support through their tax dollars have the greatest potential to improve child and family well - being.

Few prevention programs have been rigorously evaluated, and only a few have proven effective.60, 61 Health - care based prevention programs, including parent education programs to reduce rates of abusive head trauma, and improving physician ambulatory care practices to help families decrease risk factors for child maltreatment have shown good initial results, but require further evaluation.62, 63 Specific intensive home visitation programs such as nurse home visiting programs for first - time mothers have proven to be both clinically and cost effective in preventing maltreatment.64, 65 However, a program of nurse home visitation has been found ineffective as a treatment model for abusive and neglectful families, highlighting the importance of primary prevention, as well as the need to rigorously evaluate potential treatments for abusive families.66 Child welfare services are historically structured as short - term interventions that monitor families for recidivism, provide parenting education and assist with referrals to community - based servchild maltreatment have shown good initial results, but require further evaluation.62, 63 Specific intensive home visitation programs such as nurse home visiting programs for first - time mothers have proven to be both clinically and cost effective in preventing maltreatment.64, 65 However, a program of nurse home visitation has been found ineffective as a treatment model for abusive and neglectful families, highlighting the importance of primary prevention, as well as the need to rigorously evaluate potential treatments for abusive families.66 Child welfare services are historically structured as short - term interventions that monitor families for recidivism, provide parenting education and assist with referrals to community - based servChild welfare services are historically structured as short - term interventions that monitor families for recidivism, provide parenting education and assist with referrals to community - based services.

One of the primary purposes of child protective services interventions is to prevent future harm for children who have already experienced maltreatment.

Given the high prevalence of child maltreatment and the serious consequences in terms of its impact on the lives of the individuals concerned, their families, and society more generally, it is important that we identify effective methods of prevention and intervention, and there are some suggestions that a public health approach is now needed.27 Although there is limited research available in terms of what works to prevent child maltreatment, there have been significant gains over the past 20 years in terms of the development of new approaches.

In turn, families will receive interventions that meet the highest levels of evidence for preventing child maltreatment, and they and the public can be confident that the programs they participate in and support through their tax dollars have the greatest potential to improve child and family well - being.

Interventions to prevent child maltreatment.

Research suggests that early targeted interventions aimed at increasing parental sensitivity and promoting attachment may be effective in promoting healthy child development (see, for example, Lieberman 1999; Schore 2001; Van Ijzendoorn 1995), and in preventing emotional maltreatment (Barlow 2010).

Objective: We examined predictors of engagement and completion in a randomized trial comparing the effectiveness of two interventions for preventing child maltreatment and promoting positive parenting.

In this randomized trial, we compared the effectiveness of a parenting intervention to a cellular phone enhanced parenting intervention for preventing child maltreatment and promoting positive parenting.

Children who have disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure have been shown to be vulnerable to stress, have problems with regulation and control of negative emotions, and display oppositional, hostile - aggressive behaviours, and coercive styles of interaction.2, 3 They may exhibit low self - esteem, internalizing and externalizing problems in the early school years, poor peer interactions, unusual or bizarre behaviour in the classroom, high teacher ratings of dissociative behaviour and internalizing symptoms in middle childhood, high levels of teacher - rated social and behavioural difficulties in class, low mathematics attainment, and impaired formal operational skills.3 They may show high levels of overall psychopathology at 17 years.3 Disorganized attachment with a primary attachment figure is over-represented in groups of children with clinical problems and those who are victims of maltreatment.1, 2,3 A majority of children with early disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure during infancy go on to develop significant social and emotional maladjustment and psychopathology.3, 4 Thus, an attachment - based intervention should focus on preventing and / or reducing disorganized attChildren who have disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure have been shown to be vulnerable to stress, have problems with regulation and control of negative emotions, and display oppositional, hostile - aggressive behaviours, and coercive styles of interaction.2, 3 They may exhibit low self - esteem, internalizing and externalizing problems in the early school years, poor peer interactions, unusual or bizarre behaviour in the classroom, high teacher ratings of dissociative behaviour and internalizing symptoms in middle childhood, high levels of teacher - rated social and behavioural difficulties in class, low mathematics attainment, and impaired formal operational skills.3 They may show high levels of overall psychopathology at 17 years.3 Disorganized attachment with a primary attachment figure is over-represented in groups of children with clinical problems and those who are victims of maltreatment.1, 2,3 A majority of children with early disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure during infancy go on to develop significant social and emotional maladjustment and psychopathology.3, 4 Thus, an attachment - based intervention should focus on preventing and / or reducing disorganized attchildren with clinical problems and those who are victims of maltreatment.1, 2,3 A majority of children with early disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure during infancy go on to develop significant social and emotional maladjustment and psychopathology.3, 4 Thus, an attachment - based intervention should focus on preventing and / or reducing disorganized attchildren with early disorganized attachment with their primary attachment figure during infancy go on to develop significant social and emotional maladjustment and psychopathology.3, 4 Thus, an attachment - based intervention should focus on preventing and / or reducing disorganized attachment.

The types of preventive interventions that were effective in preventing child maltreatment were: home visitation interventions (d =.210), parent training interventions (d =.428), family - based / multisystemic interventions (d =.343), substance abuse interventions (d = 1.852) and combined interventions (d =.174).

A number of meta - analyses have synthesized results on the effectiveness of interventions aimed at preventing or reducing child maltreatment (e.g., Euser et al. 2015; Filene et al. 2013; Geeraerts et al. 2004; Guterman 1999; Layzer et al. 2001; Pinquart and Teubert 2010; Sweet and Appelbaum 2004).

Euser et al. (2015) did find a significantly higher effect for interventions aimed at reducing child maltreatment in maltreating families than for interventions aimed at preventing child maltreatment in at - risk families / the general population.

Euser et al. (2015) also found a very small but significant effect (d = 0.13) of interventions aimed at preventing or reducing child maltreatment.

Overall, a small but significant effect was found of interventions aimed at preventing or reducing child maltreatment (d =.287), which is in line with findings of previously conducted meta - analyses on the effect of these interventions (e.g., Geeraerts et al. 2004; Filene et al. 2013; MacLeod and Nelson 2000).

There is a lack of knowledge about specific components that make interventions effective in preventing or reducing child maltreatment.

Before - school interventions (d =.148), general prevention interventions (d =.024), and crisis interventions (d =.407) did not have a significant effect on preventing child maltreatment (the latter probably due to lack of power).

First, studies had to report on the effect of at least one intervention for preventing or reducing child maltreatment.

Interventions may be aimed at reducing the incidence of child maltreatment in maltreating families or at preventing the occurrence of child maltreatment in at - risk, but non-maltreating families.

In addition, some interventions are aimed at preventing the first occurrence of child maltreatment in the general population, for example by providing a short parental skills training to parents who visit a well - baby clinic.

Our findings show that interventions can be effective in preventing or reducing child maltreatment.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, home visitation, parent training, family - based / multisystemic, substance abuse, and combined interventions were effective in preventing and / or reducing child maltreatment.

These studies generally found minor effects of interventions for reducing or preventing child maltreatment.

Specific individual interventions with a (trend) significant effect on preventing or reducing child maltreatment that were examined in at least two independent studies were: MST - CAN / BSF (intensive family therapy), Triple P (a parent training), ACT - Parent's Raising Safe Kids Program (a short - term parent training), and Healthy Start (a home visitation intervention).

Interventions can be effective in preventing or reducing child maltreatment.

The «less is more» effect in attachment - based interventions found by Bakermans - Kranenburg et al. (2003) seems also applicable to interventions aimed at reducing or preventing child maltreatment.

A literature search yielded 121 independent studies (N = 39,044) examining the effects of interventions for preventing or reducing child maltreatment.
