A meta-analysis of follow-up<br />

data indicates a significant result<br />

favouring the intervention group<br />

for parent-reports (SMD -0.28;<br />

CI -0.51 <strong>to</strong> -0.04) but a nonsignificant<br />

result favouring the<br />

intervention group for<br />

independent observations (SMD<br />
