First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether helping families with money and parenting skills can improve behavior in children ages 10-14 with oppositional defiant or conduct disorder. About 900 children and their caregivers in Uganda will be split into three groups: one gets financial help, one gets family counseling, and one gets both. Researchers will track changes in symptoms and daily functioning over three years.
