N2  - This study was undertaken to assess the effects of holding therapy on children who have a history of aggressive and delinquent behaviors. The study design was a prospective, pre-post, quasi-experimental controlled study. The subjects were recruited through the Attachment Center at Evergreen, Colorado. Eligible subjects were adopted children between the ages of 5-14 years, living in the present adopted home for at least one year. All children had a history of aggressive and delinquent behaviors, which prompted the contact with Evergreen. Findings resulted in significant decrease in the outcome variable for the treatment group within this study.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
