Filter by:The goal of the proposed research is to achieve a major advance in promoting effective and efficient delivery of pediatric rehabilitation services for young children with developmental disabilities and delays. The investigative team will examine the usability, feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of PEM+, an innovative web-based (mobile friendly) guide for care planning by parents of young children with developmental disabilities and delays. PEM+ is designed in partnership with parents and providers to support more collaborative and efficient clinical care planning with individual families who typically access pediatric occupational therapy services. Specifically, PEM+ enables parents to build on their baseline assessment of their child using the Young Children's Participation and Environment Measure (YC-PEM) to design specific solutions to their young child's participation-related problems. PEM+ affords parents the opportunity to do this in their own space and on their own schedule, as well as electronically share their proposed written solutions with their child's provider(s) and/or other important individuals in their young child's life.
ZEPPELIN (Zurich Equity Prevention Project with Parents Participation and Integration) is a longitudinal, randomized controlled intervention study. The main objective is to examine the effectiveness of the early intervention program "Parents As Teachers" (PAT) in psychosocially disadvantaged families. This includes four aims: 1. Identification of children at risk at an early age, using an interdisciplinary network; 2. Investigation of the acceptability of the program by the parents; 3. Evaluation of the intervention process and efficacy during and immediately after program implementation; 4. Evaluation of the efficacy in terms of child academic performance.
