| Abstract: | Summary The literature would have us believe that behavioural procedurescan be applied extremely effectively to a wide range of familyproblems. As with any other therapeutic approach there are,however, a wide range of specific and non-specific factors whichwill determine whether or not a behavioural approach is successful.This paper sets out to examine some of these and also attemptsto draw a few conclusions about the effectiveness of behaviourmodification with families, especially when it is practisedin a routine clinical setting. |
