Discuss some of the limitations of parent-management training (PMT) programs in treating conduct problems
What will be an ideal response?
Although PMT can produce short-term gains, its long-term effectiveness is less clear (McMahon et al., 2006). In addition, PMT makes numerous demands on parents to master and implement procedures in the home, attend meetings, and maintain phone contact with the therapist. For families under stress and with few resources, these demands may be too great to allow the family to continue in treatment (Lundahl, Risser, & Lovejoy, 2006).
