These experiences can lead to caregiver disengagement from and resistance to recommended evidence-based regimens for their adolescent's care, which in turn, contributes to poor adolescent outcomes (Acri, Bornheimer, Jessell, Flaherty, & McKay, 2016;Acri, Gopalan, Lalayants, & McKay, 2015;Gopalan, Dean-Assael, Klingenstein, Chacko, & McKay, 2011;Schattner, 2014).
