Multisystemic therapy versus management as usual in the treatment of adolescent antisocial behaviour (START): a pragmatic, randomised controlled, superiority trial

Fonagy P, Scott S, et al. The Lancet Psychiatry , Published online January 2018.

First Functional Family Therapy (FFT) and now Multisystemic Therapy (MST). Another British trial of over 1000 families showed that American-designed and researched MST is no better than treatment as usual for improving adolescent antisocial behavior. Whether this was due to the quality of treatment as usual in the UK remains to be seen. For the moment, the authors do not recommend that MST is adopted as the intervention of choice for this group.
