Abstract

L’obiettivo di questa revisione è identificare metodi efficaci per migliorare l’impegno e l’adesione delle famiglie ai programmi di parent training (BPT). Nonostante la letteratura indichi risultati positivi, spesso le famiglie mostrano uno scarso impegno, fino a giungere a un precoce abbandono del percorso terapeutico. Ciò comporta una serie di conseguenze negative per le famiglie, i clinici, la ricerca e il servizio sanitario nazionale. La letteratura, ad oggi, individua alcuni fattori predittivi del drop-out e varie componenti da includere nei parent training per aumentare l’impegno e l’adesione alle procedure di intervento. Tra strategie di coinvolgimento, alcuni autori suggeriscono l’utilizzo di un promemoria degli appuntamenti,
brevi discussioni iniziali sulla necessità di impegnarsi, metodi di coinvolgimento dei sistemi familiari, adattamenti strutturali del programma, incentivi finanziari, aumento del supporto familiare e colloqui motivazionali. Nonostante i programmi BPT abbiano un’elevata efficacia nel cambiamento del comportamento genitoriale, la letteratura evidenzia elevati livelli di drop-out, ragion per cui gli studi presentati hanno piccoli campioni che limitano il potere statistico e la generalizzabilità dei risultati.
