Third, although there are some data about various
child and family characteristics that predict outcome (e.g., socioeconomic disadvantage, severity of
child behaviour, maternal
adjustment problems, treatment barriers), there has been a relative dearth of attention paid to a) the actual processes of change that are induced by PMT and b)

child gender or minority status or family socioeconomic status) for whom PMT is more or less effective.15 - 17
