Conduct Disorder
• “A repetitive and persistent pattern of behaviour in which the basic rights of others, or major age-appropriate societal norms or rules, are violated”, (DSM-IV, 1994)
• General behaviour problems are the most common reasons why children are referred to Children’s Mental Health Services (Hutchings, Lane & Kelly, 2004)
• Between 7-20% of children meet the diagnostic criteria for conduct disorder (Webster-Stratton & Hammond, 1998)

Impact of Conduct Disorder
• 50% of mothers of children referred for treatment for behavioural difficulties show levels of depression within the clinical range (Hutchings, Appleton, Smith, Lane & Nash, 2002)
• Mothers who suffer from clinical depression exhibit symptoms associated with the development of conduct disorder (Webster-Stratton, 1998)
• Increased rates of maternal depression also result in significant relationship problems within the family, which in turn can cause or exacerbate child behaviour problems (Hutchings & Nash, 1998)

Parental factors associated with Conduct Disorder
• Maternal depression
• Poor parental problem solving & observational skills
• Socioeconomic status
• Poverty
• Single-parent status - divorce
• Parents reinforcing problem behaviour
(Coercive Family Process)

Traditional behavioural intervention pose barriers to treatment…
• Transportation
• Dropping out of treatment (attrition)
• Maintenance of behaviour change
• Generalisation of skills
• Sufficient training of healthcare professionals to deliver behaviour-based practice
• Stigma associated with seeking professional help
• Increased parental response effort

Advantages of web-based interventions
• Majority of the population have access to the internet
• Internet can reach harder-to-reach families
• Can tailor interventions to suit individual family circumstances
• More support outside the clinical setting
• Can practice essential skills in the home environment
• More than one parent can engage with the intervention
• Choice of when to participate

The Little Parent Handbook Intervention
(Hutchings, 2013)
• Core behavioural principles
• A focus on positive parenting
• Chapters include: Encouraging your child’s positive behaviour, and teaching new behaviours to our children
• Transfer core behavioural principles into a web-based parenting intervention and evaluate effectiveness
• Participants will read weekly chapters and complete an online quiz at the end of each chapter
• Videos and images will be used to supplement the reading material

LifeGuide Software
• Developed by a Computer Scientist and a Social Psychologist at the University of Southampton
• Includes many advantageous features such as tailored advice based on individual responses, immediate feedback, e-mail reminders, graph production of quiz results and elimination of traditional treatment barriers such as transport (Yang et al., 2009)

What’s next?
• Revise the LifeGuide Manual and begin transferring the parenting intervention from PowerPoint to LifeGuide
• Approach Health Visitors for recruitment
• Complete Bangor University and NHS Research Ethics
• Complete 2 chapters of my thesis
1. Behavioural interventions for children with Conduct Disorder
2. How the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) are used in web-based behavioural interventions for children with Conduct Disorder
