The Childhood Friendship Project

https://www.childtrends.org/programs/10229-2

Initiative Description: The 6-week program consisted of developmentally appropriate puppet shows, active participatory sessions, passive concept activities and in vivo reinforcement periods. Nine classrooms were randomly assigned to be intervention rooms (N = 202 children) and nine classrooms were control rooms (N = 201 children).

Study Results: The Childhood Friendship Project reduced physical and relational aggression, as well as physical and relational victimization and tended to increase prosocial behavior.
