Two experiments examined temporal and setting generality of treatment effects resulting from parent behavior training. In Experiment I, pretreatment, post-treatment, 6 month follow-up, and 12 month follow-up data were collected in the home by independent observers. Subjects were 10 mother-child pairs who had been referred for treatment for the child's noncompliance. All treatment occurred in a clinic setting. The results indicated that parent and child behavior changes and parent perceptions of child behavior change that were achieved by treatment were maintained during follow-up. In Experiment II, eight children and their mothers were treated in a clinic setting for the child's noncompliance. Data were collected before and after treatment in the home and in each child's school by independent observers. School data were also collected for untreated control children. In the home of the treated children both parent and child behaviors and parent perceptions of child behavior changed in the predicted direction. No significant change occurred in the school behavior of the children treated at home or the control children.
