| dc.description.notes | Compared the effectiveness of the "Violence Prevention Curriculum for Adolescents" and the "Conflict Resolution: A curriculum for youth providers" within two middle schools in San Francisco. Each US school was randomly assigned to one of the curricula. Each was presented to students during 10 x 50-minute sessions over a period of five weeks. Information provision, role-playing, videotaping and discussion about ways to deal with anger and choices for conflict resolution were part of the format. Pre- and post-test questionnaires were administered to the students. Results indicated that the conflict resolution programme was more effective as it gave more opportunities for skills building and practice of non-violent conflict resolution strategies. Both were effective in increasing students' knowledge about risk factors, but no significant change was evident in attitudes about violence. Data indicated a decrease in frequency of abuse and that girls were more likely to choose appropriate conflict resolution methods. The authors support the use of social cognitive approaches to school-based violence prevention programmes. Concludes that it is necessary to convey information but vital to also develop skills. | en |
