Reanalysis: A reply.

In replying to H. Abikoff and P. P. Ramsey's (see record 1980-03741-001) reanalysis of some of the present authors' (see record 1978-32185-001) data from a study of the cognitive-behavioral treatment of impulsive children, it is noted that covariance is likely to increase the differences between groups, but because of a negative relationship between the measures at pretreatment and follow-up, covariance reduced the group differences. A central clinical question—whether cognitive-behavioral interventions can result in treatment generalization—is considered; some recent evidence indicates supportive outcomes.
