    About Workshop

    In this workshop, Dr. Eddy describes the rationale and development of "LIFT," which is a program designed to prevent conduct problems and aggressive behaviors. This program describes how parents and teachers can work together to prevent the development of more serious problem behavior in children. One hallmark feature of this program is the playground behavior game, which is designed to reduce negative behaviors and encourage positive behaviors from children during recess times at school. Dr. Eddy explains the parent-directed and child-directed school-based components through videos of example sessions and exercises.
