The Unfair Card Game: A promising tool to assessexternalizing behavior in preschoolers
2016, Pratiques PsychologiquesCitation Excerpt :The child is observed in several common tasks, such as compliance, clean-up and frustration tasks with the examiner and with the parent (Wakschlag et al., 2005). As in the DB-DOS, the Mother–Child Interaction Task (MCIT) consists of a structured parent–child interaction, which involves a series of episodes of free play, clean-up and teaching tasks, as well as a separation and a reunion (Crowell & Feldman, 1988; Crowell, Feldman, & Ginsberg, 1988). The coding system is made up of both child and mother scales assessing for example irritability and aggression.
Stimulating parents' self-efficacy beliefs or verbal responsiveness: Which is the best way to decrease children's externalizing behaviors?
2015, Behaviour Research and TherapyCitation Excerpt :An additional 8-week waiting time would have been too long, leading to dropping out, high levels of frustration among voluntary participants, and supplementary measurement occasions involving questionnaire completion and home observation. In the same way, the MCIT procedure and coding (Crowell et al., 1988) was restricted to the two first tasks in order to limit the assessment procedure. Second, the follow-up physiological measure of motor activity with the 3-AAP device was missing in the second micro-trial for practical and technical reasons.
