The intervention aims to reduce the psychological distress of parents and their child, thus improving parent-child relationships, and the trial aims to assess the effectiveness of MFNT among them.

Primary | Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (KPDS) | Kessler Psychological Distress Scale is a 10-item scale completed by the child and the child's parent. It assesses the frequency of distress-related feelings in the past month on a 5-point Likert Scale (1=None of the time; 2=A little of the time; 3=Some of the time; 4=Most of the time; 5=All of the time). The scale is reliable and valid for the local context, given it will be delivered in Chinese. Changes in scores of Kessler Psychological Distress Scale will be evaluated before, after the intervention as well as at a follow-up assessment (3 months after the end of the intervention). | 1 week prior intervention, Intervention week 4, and 3 months post-intervention | |
Primary | Parental Stress Scale (PSS) | Parental Stress Scale (PSS) consists of 17 items on a 6-point scale (1 = strongly disagree; 2 = disagree; 3= somewhat disagree; 4 = somewhat agree; 5 = agree; 6 = strongly agree) measuring parents' perception of parental stress. Seven items require reverse scoring. A total score is calculated, with higher scores indicating higher levels of parental stress. The Chinese version of the scale has been translated and validated. Changes in its total score will be evaluated before, after the intervention as well as at a follow-up assessment (3 months after the end of the intervention). | 1 week prior intervention, Intervention week 4, and 3 months post-intervention | |
Primary | Parent-Child Relationship Scale | Parent-Child Relationship Scale is a scale that assesses subjects' perceptions of their current relationship with their children. It consists of 17 items based on 5-point scale, ranging from 1 = never to 5 = always. The scale uses mean score, and a higher score indicates a more positive parent-child relationship. Changes in its mean score will be evaluated before, after the intervention as well as at a follow-up assessment (3 months after the end of the intervention). | 1 week prior intervention, Intervention week 4, and 3 months post-intervention | |
Primary | Parental Bonding Inventory (PBI) | Parental Bonding Inventory (PBI) is a 25-item instrument assessing levels of parental care and overprotection perceived by the child. It consisted of two subscales termed 'care' and 'overprotection/control'. The measure is to be completed for both mothers and fathers separately, with each parent being scored on a 4-point Likert scale (Very unlike = 0, Moderately unlike = 1, Moderately like = 2, Very like = 3). Changes in the scores in "care" and "overprotection/control" subscales in both father and mother will be evaluated before, after the intervention as well as at a follow-up assessment (3 months after the end of the intervention). | 1 week prior intervention, Intervention week 4, and 3 months post-intervention | |
Secondary | Satisfaction With Family Life Scale (SWFL) | Satisfaction With Family Life Scale (SWFL) is a 5-item scale that assesses an individual's global judgment of family satisfaction. Parents and children were required to agree or disagree with global statements about family life on a 7-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 = strongly disagree to 7 = strongly agree. This instrument has been successfully used in a variety of family samples and offers a brief, widely applicable tool to measure satisfaction with family life. Changes in its total score will be evaluated before, after the intervention as well as at a follow-up assessment (3 months after the end of the intervention). | 1 week prior intervention, Intervention week 4, and 3 months post-intervention | |
Secondary | Guilt and Shame Questionnaire (GSQ) | Guilt and Shame Questionnaire (GSQ) is a 10-item scale to assess one's feelings of guilt and shame associated with disabilities including but not limited to mental illness. It consisted of two subscale - shame and guilt, both are rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (never) to 5 (always). The scale was completed by parents and children. The evaluation of guilt and shame is calculated based on the sum scores of each subscale. Changes in scores of total scale, guilt and shame subscales will be evaluated before, after the intervention as well as at a follow-up assessment (3 months after the end of the intervention). | 1 week prior intervention, Intervention week 4, and 3 months post-intervention |
