Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research has shown the benefits of family education in children and adolescents in areas such as cognitive and socioemotional development. Family education is offered in multiple formats, such as in the home or at an agency. Further research is needed to explore the effects of family education on children and adolescents. This Special Issue will focus on evaluations of family education programs offered in any format and their impact on children’s and adolescents’ development. Papers that address parent education programs in individual and group formats, as well as those that involve the education of the whole family, will be included in this Special Issue. The scope of this Special Issue includes all domains of child and adolescent development, including physical, emotional, social, and cognitive development.
