dc.description.abstractThis study examined the efficacy of two psychobehavioural strategies to manage conduct disorder (CD) amongst in-school adolescents in Ibadan, Nigeria. A randomised controlled trial (RCT) of adolescents with CD was performed. Sixteen participants (aged 12–17 years) who reported high CD from an assessment of 1006 in-school adolescents of selected secondary schools in Ibadan were randomly grouped to receive either cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), social skills training (SST) or combined CBT and SST. The Frequency of Delinquent Behaviour Scaling Instrument (FDBSI) was used for assessments. Significant reduction in CD was observed among participants exposed to CBT at 8 weeks, SST at 8 weeks, and combined CBT and SST at the 6 week mark of interventions respectively. From the study, CBT and SST were found effective in managing CD. However, the combined psychobehavioural intervention of CBT and SST was more effective in managing CD based on a faster therapeutic effect than the independent psychobehavioural intervention of CBT and SST.en_US
