Child Disruptive Behaviors (Parent Report) |
Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (ECBI); intensity t-score. Higher t-scores indicate poorer outcomes (i.e., greater intensity of behavior problems). T-scores have a mean of 50 (SD = 10). T-scores of 60 or higher indicate clinical significance. |

Parent-child Relationship Quality (Observed) |
Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System-IV (DPICS-IV) will be used. The DPICS provides a reliable measure of parent-child relationship quality (e.g., parents' child-centered skills, parent and child positive and negative physical and verbal interactions) and parent behavior management skills (e.g., use of contingent reinforcement, effective discipline, child compliance). This outcome reflects behavioral observation of parents' child-centered skills ("DO" skills) during child led play. This is a count variable that can range from 0 displayed skills (min) with no determined maximum. Higher numbers = more skills (better outcome). |
Pre-intervention (T1), post-intervention (T2; 4 months after pre-intervention), and six-month follow-up (T3; 10 months after pre-intervention) |
|
Secondary |
Parent-child Relationship Quality (Parent Report) |
Scores on the Parent-child Dysfunctional Interaction (PCDI) subscale of the Parenting Stress Index will be used as the parent-report of parent-child relationship quality. Values range from 12 to 60, with higher scores indicating greater dysfunction in (poorer quality of) the parent-child relationship. |
Pre-intervention (T1), post-intervention (T2; 4 months after pre-intervention), and six-month follow-up (T3; 10 months after pre-intervention) |
|

Media Parenting Practices (Observed) |
Family mealtime observations will be coded for presence and use of screen media (TV, mobile device present, other media present). Coding of the observed behavior is as follows: TV on = 1 if TV is on during mealtime, TV on = 0 if TV is off during mealtime, lower values = better outcomes. Mobile device present = 1 if a mobile device is present, 0 if no mobile device is present, with lower values= better outcomes. Other media present = 1 if other screens are present, 0 if no other screens are present (lower values=better outcomes). |
