Effects of early intervention on psychiatric symptoms of young adults in low-risk and high-risk families.
Abstract
Effects of early risk and intervention on the psychiatric symptoms of young adults were studied. By means of a weighted risk index, 160 families with a baby born in 1975-1976 were classified as being at low or high risk. Half of the families attended a five-year family counseling program, the other half served as a control group. At age 20-21 years, the young adults from the counseled families had significantly fewer psychiatric symptoms than did those from the control families. A significant interaction between family risk and counseling was found. Implications for preventive intervention efforts are discussed.

Extended home visits to socially disadvantaged parents with a newborn child reduce children's behavioural problems, the frequency of accidental harm, and the presence of risks in the home.
“Extended home visits to socially disadvantaged parents with a newborn child have been shown to reduce children’s behavioural problems, the frequency of accidental harm (Aronen and Arajarvi, 2000) and the presence of risks in the home (Hahn et al., 2003).”

When child health care nurses, in collaboration with family supporters, offer parents more home visits during their children's first year of life, their parenting abilities are strengthened, which has positive effects on their children's health.
“International research has shown that when child health care (CHC) nurses, in collaboration with family supporters (within social service), offer parents more home visits during their children’s first year of life, their parenting abilities are strengthened, which has positive effects on their children’s health (Aronen and Arajarvi, 2000; Olds et al., 2007; Barboza et al., 2018).”

With home visits, which contribute to helping parents better understand their child's developmental and individual needs, the effect of the early intervention can be sustained during the child's upbringing.
“Furthermore, research has shown that with home visits, which contribute to helping parents better understand their child’s developmental and individual needs, the effect of the early intervention can be sustained during the child’s upbringing (Aronen and Arajarvi, 2000).”

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.
