THE PROBLEM-SOLVING APPROACH TO ADJUSTMENT: A COMPETENCY-BUILDING MODEL OF PRIMARY PREVENTION
Abstract
Social maladjustment is, to a significant extent, a function of an individual's inability to effectively identify and solve problems of an interpersonal life situation. The Interpersonal Cognitive Problem Solving (ICPS) training approach was developed to enhance social adjustment and interpersonal competence by increasing one's interpersonal problem solving abilities. Emphasis is placed on enhancing the trainee's ability to: (a) generate problem solutions (b) determine suitable means of achieving end goals, while c) recognizing the consequences of alternate strategies. Research results and program evaluation indicate the validity and viability of this approach for children as young as 4 and 5 years of age.

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.
