Development and initial validation of the Parent Behavior Inventory
Article Abstract:
The Parent Behavior Inventory (PBI) makes it possible to assess support/engagement and hostility/coercion in parents of preschool- and young school-age children. Experts' analysis of the content of the PBI indicates that its items are relevant and representative of supportive and hostile parenting behaviours. However, its items also reflect a range of behaviours available to parents of young children. It appears that the PBI is appropriate for use by researchers and clinicians under controlled conditions.

Research was conducted to examine survival-analysis methods in clinical assessment particularly for those investigators who are in need of the appropriate statistical methods. A mathematically sound, comprehensive and practical yet nontechnical introduction to survival techniques is presented. Results demonstrate a complete example of how survival-analysis equipment can be applied in treatment evaluation.
