Summary: This project consists of 4 subprojects. Their subject is evaluation of Integral method for the prevention of behavioral problems in preschool children, evaluation of models for prevention of behavioural disorders of primary school children, evaluation of one model of intensified care and supervision (probation) applied to juvenile delinquents and evaluation of the efficiency of institutional treatment applied to juvenile and young adult delinquents. The base of Integral method intended to be evaluated in first subproject (Evaluation of Integral method in work with preschool children and their parents) consists of Theory of teaching, Theory of basic psychological needs and of Communication process (C. Rogers, A. Maslow, W. Glasser, T. Gordon). In second subproject (Treatment models for primary school children with behaviour disorders) previously were among the 4th grade pupils recognised so called pupils in risk. Three work models for prevention of their behaviour disorders were constructed: individual sociopedagogical work outside family and school, group work with pupils and work with their parents. The efficiency patterns of the intensified care and supervision of juveniles in urban circumstances are researched in third subproject (Juvenile delinquents on probation). The catamnestic research refers to persons who were under the treatment of intensifield care and supervision (probation) four year ago. Fourth subproject (Evaluation of the institucional treatment of under age and young adult persons) consists of two parts. In the first part the data were collected from the Regional court documentation (in Zagreb). Two questionnaires were used: socio-criminological and questionnaire for the treatment. In second part of the research (catamnestic) the data of examines selfreport on treatment (reflection) and the data of efficiency of their social reintegration will be collected. All subprojects are longitudinal.

Keywords: behavioral problems, models of treatment

Research goals: The main goal of the first subproject scientific is assesment andevaluation of the effects of integral method through work withthe staff and the context of kindergartens and influencing thatway children and parents in regular preschool programmes for theprevention of behaviour problems at future delopmental levels(childhood and adolescence). The general purpose of the secondsubproject scientific research is to find more efficientpreventive models of work with primary school pupils. Particularpurposes of third subproject scientific reasrch are discoveringmore efficient organisation in applying educational measureintensified care and supervision, and discovering of suchcontext in wich probationer himself can feel and evaluatemeasures efficiency regarding to contexts which uses Social careoffices. The maine goal of the fouth subproject scientificresearch is to evaluate the efficiency of the currentinstitutional treatment model for under age and young adultpersons. According to the given results, the optimum model of theinstitutional treatment will be projected, as the organisedsocial reactions that should be included in some of theinstitutional treatment models. Expected results in allsubproject are conceived as a support for new models that couldbe applied in kindergarten and primary schools in prevention ofbehavioural problems or in treatment of juvenile and young adultdelinquents. So far the experimental phase of the project isrealised. What remains is elaboration of some supplementary dataand definitive proposal of new models on these four analysedlevels.
