Established asthma patients (ages 9-15) will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: Treatment Intervention (TI), Asthma Education (AE), and Standard Care (SC). The TI and AE groups will receive four 30-minute treatment sessions every two weeks. The TI intervention will consist of strategies aimed at promoting parent-youth management in asthma management. The AE group will receive structured reviews of asthma educational materials typically given to asthma patients. SC participants will have no contact with researchers beyond that necessary to gather data. Data will be collected from all participants every two weeks for the first 8-weeks of study involvement and also about 3-months after the final treatment session. Outcome data will include objective measures of medication adherence, parental involvement in asthma, and health outcome.
