“…This question points to the need for further research in relation to those treatments that appear to be effective in some contexts but not in others. Multisystemic Therapy, for example, can boast of successful trials in the United States and Norway, but failed replication in Sweden and Canada [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] .…”

This paper reviews the outcomes of psychodynamic psychotherapy (PP) for children and adolescents reported in papers identified by a comprehensive review of the literature on treatment evaluations of psychological and medical interventions for mental disorders in pediatric populations. The review identified 48 reports based on 33 studies. Reports were individually evaluated in terms of methodological rigor.Randomized trials, quasi-experimental and observational studies are considered separately. RCTs were independently rated on a 25-item scale of methodological strengths. Although a small number of studies with findings indicating beneficial effects of PP for pediatric mental disorder were identified, the review found no compelling evidence from RCT data supporting the use of PP as an individually delivered psychological therapy. In almost all the studies, when contrasted with family-based interventions, PP fares no better and appears to produce outcomes with some delay relative to family-based therapies. While the review shows PP to be an effective treatment, it is clearly understudied and its treatment principles may be most efficaciously delivered in non-traditional contexts such as parent-child or family therapy. Further rigorous evaluations are needed but evidence to date suggests that the context in which PP is delivered should be extended from the traditional context of individual therapy.2

“…Experience suggests certain cultures might have more difficulty engaging in the therapeutic relationship than others. For instance, MST therapists in New Zealand and Hawaii (not an international site, but one characterized by a prevalence of Pacific Islanders and associated cultural influence that differs from the continental United States; Rowland et al, 2005) report Maori and Pacific Islander families respond negatively to questions about their extended families or presenting problems during sessions early in treatment. Direct questioning or references to professional business in the initial phases of treatment can be detrimental to successful engagement within these cultures.…”

The purpose of this article is to consider, through the lenses of theory and research on technology transfer and the adoption and implementation of innovation, the international transport of evidencebased psychosocial treatments for youth, using Multisystemic Therapy (MST) as an example. MST is a well-validated family and community-based approach originally developed in the United States to treat serious juvenile offenders. This article describes challenges to MST transport internationally by virtue of the political, legal, economic, and cultural contexts in different nations. Modifications used to address these challenges and facilitate the international implementation of MST are described and pertain to pre-implementation processes, clinical staff, training materials and procedures, and clinical service delivery.

“…Ergänzend sei auf drei jüngere Evaluationsstudien (Henggeler, Halliday-Boykins, Cunningham, Randall, Shapio, Chapman, 2006;Rowland et al, 2005;Schaeffer u. Borduin, 2005) sowie einige neuere Sekundäranalysen zur Effektivität (auch) der MST (Dowden u. Andrews, 2003;Latimer, 2001Latimer, , 2005Littell, Popa, Forsythe, 2005) (Sherman et al, 2002) unter den evidenzbasierten Verfahren aufgeführt (Farrington u. Welsh, 2002). Als Anerkennung durch den Mainstream der Familientherapie in den US ist Folgendes zu werten: Als die American Association of Marital and Family herapy im Jahre 2003 zum zweiten Mal in ihrer Geschichte eine Gesamtbilanz der Wirksamkeit, Effektivität und Effizienz von Paar-und Familientherapie zog und in seinem Organ, dem Journal of Marital and Family herapy veröffentlichte, wurde die Aufgabe, den Forschungsstand für den Bereich der Verhaltensstörungen und der Delinquenz im Jugendalter darzustellen (Henggeler u. Sheidow, 2003), der MST-Gruppe übertragen.…”

These models are of the family support or the family preservation type of program. The methodological quality of the evaluation is high or very high in the case of the two family support programs Nurse Home Visitation and Healthy Families America and the two family preservation programs Functional Family therapy and Multisystemic Therapy. All of them are producing clinically relevant positive long-term effects. The models of in-home family-focused intervention currently used in Germany are to be evaluated in studies with (quasi-)experimental design. Prax
