From 851 documents, 84 reports containing 135 comparisons between treated and untreated youngsters (N=16,723) fulfilled stepwise eligicility criteria (e.g., randomized control-group design, focus on prevention). Despite a wide range of positive and negatice effect sizes, the majority confirmed the benefits of treatment. The best estimated mean effects were d=.38 (postintervention) and .28 (follow-up). Effects were smaller on antisocial behavior than on related social and cognitive measures. Studies with large smaples produced lower effect sizes than those with smaller samples. Programs targeting at-risk groups had better effects than universal programs. Modes of treatment did not differ significantly; however, cognitivebehavioral programs had the strongest impact on antisocial behavior. more well-controlled studies with large samples, hard outcome criteria, and long follow-up periods are needed, particularly outside the United States
