    Abstract:
    Conduct behaviour problems are the most frequent problems in childhood and adolescence. They make special demands on parenting. Possible causes for the emergence and maintenance of this distinctive features can be summarized in a bio-psychosocial disturbance model. The parental educating behaviour is thereby usually not the cause of the childlike behaviour problems, but can stabilize initial behaviour problems. Parenting trainings are therefore considered as an effective possibility of intervention and prevention of childlike behaviour disturbances. In this article contents and effectiveness of the "Kompetenztraining für Eltern sozial auffälliger und aufmerksamkeitsgestörter Kinder (KES)" (Lauth a. Heubeck 2005) are to be represented. The KES is a secondary preventive parenting training, which is offered as an intensive short time intervention and accomplished in groups. The contents of the training fit with the individual problems of parents' everyday educating situations. In the available study this training is operate in three variants in order to examine differential training effects apart from the general effectiveness. The results show a general effectiveness of the KES. Burdens in family educating situations can be reduced likewise the experienced stress in the family. The results also indicate, that the parents of the group with behaviour exercises seems to benefit most from the training. They do not only speak about their problems (alternative treatment) or get suggestions for changes in the educating behaviour (group without behaviour exercises). They are also requested to practice the connected skills in the form of role plays and homework to be able to transfer into everyday life.
