ages is proposed. Differences between the educative approach and behavioral
parent training packages are discussed, including differences in the targe
t population, and the philosophy of assessment and intervention. Overviews
of general techniques used in each strategy are provided. Issues surroundin
g an integration of the components of each approach are highlighted and add
ressed, including: how parent training packages would benefit, the practica
lity of such an integration in terms of time, and the feasibility of applyi
