The science of prevention. A conceptual framework and some directions for a national research program
Abstract
A conceptual framework for studying the prevention of human dysfunction is offered. On the basis of recent advances in research on the development of psychological disorders and methods of preventive intervention, generalizations about the relation of risk and protective factors to disorder are put forward, along with a set of principles for what may be identified as the science of prevention. Emerging themes from the study of human development, in general, need to be incorporated in the models for explaining and preventing serious problems of human adaptation. The article concludes with a set of recommendations for a national prevention research agenda.

“Moreover, few studies have explored the role of protective factors that operate by decreasing the probability of problem gambling development in the presence of risk, such as by interacting with a risk factor to mitigate or buffer its effects (Coie et al., 1993;Dickson et al., 2008;Farrington & Ttofi, 2011;Loxley et al., 2004;Lussier et al., 2014).”

“Such intervention trials represent a powerful test of hypothesized protective processes emerging from the resilience literature (Cicchetti & Toth, 1992; Coie et al., 1993; Kellam & Rebok, 1992; Masten & Coatsworth, 1998).”

“Several recent studies have demonstrated that a latent subgroup perspective could be successfully applied to the study of multiple demographic and contextual risks (e.g., Coffman et al. 2007; Lanza et al. 2010b; Syvertsen et al. 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
