Abstract	This report discusses the outcomes of a study that investigated whether a self-contained (SC) or pull-out (PO) intervention model was the most effective and most supportive of children's behavioral gains over the course of the entire 1996/1997 year. Data were collected by reviewing the clinical records of children (ages 6-14) who participated in one of central Mississippi's Comprehensive Mental Health Center School based day-treatment programs. An available sample of all the children who had been in either the PO (n=56) or SC (n=32) programs were included in the sample. An outpatient group (OP) of children (n=139) who attended regular education classes at school and received outpatient mental health was also included. Results indicated: (1) the significant differences between groups were not found between the SC and PO models, but between the SC and PO models and the OP groups; (2) the SC model was not significantly more effective than the PO model; (3) children in the SC group progressed behaviorally more than did the children in the PO or OP groups; and (4) children in the SC group had much longer lengths of stay in psychiatric inpatient settings of residential facilities than did the children in the PO or OP group.
