A scoping study, funded by National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Research Capability Funding (RCF) from Leeds Partnership Foundation Trust was undertaken in 2012, in five Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMHS) clinics on children aged 5-11 with conduct disorders, in preparation for an NIHR Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) grant application for a feasibility study on child psychotherapy v. treatment as usual for children with conduct disorders and their primary carers. The outcomes of the feasibility study were reported in a number of papers.
