Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyA qualitative study of teacher's perceptions of an intervention to prevent conduct problems in Jamaican pre-schools.
There is a growing evidence base showing the efficacy of school-based interventions to prevent conduct problems but few evaluations have addressed teachers' perceptions of these programmes. Teachers' views on the acceptability, feasibility and usefulness of an intervention will influence implementation fidelity and programme sustainability and can help further our understanding of how the intervention works and how it may be improved. ⋯ The intervention was valued by Jamaican pre-school teachers and teachers felt they were able to successfully integrate the strategies learned into their regular practice.
