Thesis (Ph.D.)--Lehigh University, 2010.

It is estimated that 4-6 million school-age youth have been identified as having emotional and behavioral difficulties that impede their well-being in home, school, and community settings (National Mental Health Association, 2007). These children and adolescents have a number of related problems including heightened school drop-out rates, academic difficulties, and delinquency as compared to their non-disabled peers (Quinn, Rutherford, Leone, Osher, & Poirier, 2005).Considering the heightened needs of this population, an ecological framework (PVEST; Spencer, 1995) was employed in the examination of the relationship between parent-related risk factors, parent and life stress, and behavioral outcomes for children/adolescents with emotional behavioral concerns. The study utilized archival data (N = 57) from youth and parents enrolled in Project REACH, a federally funded National Center for youth with intensive emotional and behavioral needs. Risk assessment and demographic information gathered at the beginning of the larger project were utilized. In addition, parent stress, life stress, and behavioral outcomes were explored. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to test the predictive relationship between the study variables and youth behavioral outcomes. The major finding was that parent stress significantly predicted the behavioral outcomes of the youth participants. The hypotheses that risk factors and life stress would predict behavioral outcomes were not supported. Finally, a separate hierarchical regression model testing the moderational relationship between race and each predictor showed that the association between parent stress and child/adolescent behavioral outcomes was significantly stronger for the minority participants. Implications for research, practice, and policy are discussed.
