CBT Based Self-help Workbook + Counseling Telephone

Over a period of 12 months parents work through 8 self-help booklets and additionally receive 14 counseling telephone calls. The intervention has a cognitive-behavioral foundation and is based on the therapy manual "Therapy program for children with hyperactive and oppositional problem behavior THOP" (Döpfner, Schürmann, \& Frölich, 2007) and the parent self-help book "Wackelpeter and Trotzkopf: Help for parents of children with hyperkinetic and oppositional behavior" (Döpfner, Schürmann, \& Lehmkuhl, 2006). Primary purpose of counseling telephone calls is to clarify contents of the booklets and support parents in managing their homework assignments accompanied with each booklet.
