Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this research is to evaluate a multi-module "color brave" app-based intervention for parents of children in K-2nd grade, that guides them in how to initiate and proactively engage their children in productive, critical discussions around race/racism and anti-racism. This study will recruit a national sample of parents and their K-2nd grade children. The impact of the intervention will be tested using a rigorous randomized wait-list controlled trial design. The design of the intervention is based on research indicating that among children, positive intergroup contact with outgroup members, including vicarious engagement, can prevent or reduce anti-outgroup bias, in particular, when contact is based on common goals, cooperation rather than competition, and supported by external authorities. To evaluate the effectiveness of the program, a mixed-methods design will be utilized involving collection of a broad range of outcome measures through online questionnaire surveys, one-on-one interviews with parents and children, and parent-child dyadic interviews.
