Includes bibliographical references. Parenting programmes have been shown to have wide-ranging benefits, including the prevention of behavioural and emotional problems in children as well as child maltreatment. The majority of research conducted on parenting programmes is from high-income countries, with little available knowledge on programmes within low- and middle-income countries, such as South Africa. This study sought to identify, as far as possible, the range of parenting programmes offered in South Africa and investigate their design and evaluation practices in relation to best practices. It also sought to identify high-quality programmes which could be scaled-up successfully. This is particularly important in South Africa due to the country’s high rates of violence and child maltreatment. 2015-01-06T12:06:59Z 2015-01-06T12:06:59Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11562 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
