Four schools were randomly selected from schools of nahavand city. 28 mothers whose children had received scores above cut-point on externalized problems of Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL) were selected. Subjects were divided into control and experimental groups. Experimental group received Triple-p for 8 weeks, single a week sessions lasted two hours. The results were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U and indicated that mothers in the experimental group reported a significant decrease in signs of externalized problems in comparison with the control group.
