Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare parents tools to handle challenges and strengths as parents. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do participating parents feel more confident than non partipating parents? - Does the program have positive effects on parenting practices, parents´ well-being, and social support? - Is the programme more effective for some groups of parents ( e.g., gender, socioeconomis status) Participating parents will attend four 1-hour, manual based sessions followed by a 30-minutes optional coffe break. In addition parents will be asked to do homework assignments between the sessions. Researchers will compare the intervention group with an equally sized control group that will receive the program later the same year.
The goal of this mixed-methods study is to describe the association between the level of parent/adolescent discordance in the assessment of the adolescent's level of suicidal intentionality after a suicid attempt and the evolution of the suicidal crisis by assessing the evolution of the adolescent's suicidal intentionality between T0 and 3 months. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To show the association between the level of parent/adolescent discordance in the assessment of the adolescent's level of suicidal intent after a suicid attempt and various markers of the evolution of the suicidal crisis at 3 months. - Explore the experience of adolescents and their parents regarding the elements they consider relevant in assessing the adolescent's suicidal intent. Participants will be asked to complete various self- and hetero-questionnaires at T0 and T3
Feasibility RCT to ask: Can the investigators coproduce, with parent collaborators, a new service, Infant Parent Support (IPS), to improve the mental health of children with a social worker? Can the investigators test the feasibility of an RCT of IPS compared with services as usual?
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of the Reach Out and Read program on infants and their families in the neonatal ICU. The main goals of this study are: - To complete a needs assessment for literacy interventions in the NICU population through evaluating baseline home literacy scores. - To evaluate the effects of the ROR intervention on parental stress levels as assessed by the 6-question State-Trait Anxiety Index (STAI-6) - To evaluate the effects of the ROR intervention on parent-infant bonding by comparing scores on the 25-item Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ) - To evaluate the effects of the ROR intervention on the home literacy environment by comparing home literacy scores Participants will complete three questionnaires that include demographic information, home literacy scores, the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire and the State-Trait Anxiety Index; once at study enrollment, once at 36 weeks corrected gestational age, and once at 3 months corrected gestational age. Researchers will compare the control group (standard care) and a group that receives Reach Out and Read education to see whether exposure to Reach Out and Read affects literacy behaviors, parental anxiety, and parent-infant bonding.
Addressing the impact of early childhood adversity (e.g., family violence, parental depression, and low income) can promote children's mental health and development, giving children the best start in life and reducing societal health inequities. Family violence, depression, and low income undermine parent-child relationship quality linked to mental health and developmental problems in children that tend to persist over the lifespan. Parents' reflective function (RF), i.e., the capacity to understand their own and their child's thoughts, feelings, and mental states, can strengthen parent-child relationships and buffer the negative impacts of early adversity on children. Investigators have developed and tested an effective intervention program called ATTACH™ (Attachment and Child Health) for parents and their preschool-aged children at-risk of early adversity. In research with 90 families, investigators found the intervention significantly improved RF, parent-child relationship quality, and children's mental health and development. When COVID-19 prevented in-person intervention at the same time as demand soared for ATTACH™, investigators developed and pilot tested (n=10) an Online platform or "platform" with our community partners, including parents, to deliver the program virtually. The purpose of the study is to propose an effective implementation hybrid (EIH) Type II study of the ATTACH™ Online platform. Co-primary objectives evaluate clinical intervention effectiveness and implementation strategy feasibility of the ATTACH™ Online platform in naturalistic, real-world settings delivered by community partner agencies serving families affected by early adversity in Alberta.
This project is the first to evaluate the effect and experience of the parent program AFFEKT, through a randomized controlled trial and qualitative study, within primary health care. The project will recruit 200 parents of children with externalizing behaviors, and evaluate the effect of AFFEKT and psychoeducation versus psychoeducation alone, on children's behaviors and mental health, and the parent's strategies and mental health. Through interviews the experience of AFFEKT will be investigated.
The aim of this study is to adapt the Parenting for Lifelong Health for Parents and Teens (PLH) with the Helping Adolescents Thrive Comics in North Macedonia and the Republic of Moldova and conduct a pilot feasibility study of the adapted version. The program will be delivered by ALTERNATIVA in North Macedonia and Health for Youth Association in the Republic of Moldova. The intervention and training materials will be adapted for the local context and languages (Romanian, Macedonian, and Russian). Facilitators and coaches will be trained to deliver the intervention in the fall of 2023. A pre-post pilot study will be conducted testing the feasibility of the program and the assessment measures with caregivers (30 per country) and their 10-14-year-old children (30 per country). This includes examination of outcomes related to implementation fidelity, program acceptability, and preliminary program effectiveness in improving teens' behavioral and emotional problems. This feasibility study is part of a larger implementation science project using the MOST framework (Multiphase Optimization Strategy). This specific protocol is for the preparation phase of MOST (Phase 1). There are two more phases of MOST that will follow: the optimization phase (Phase 2) and the evaluation phase (Phase 3). The results of Phase 1 will be used to inform any changes to the intervention and assessment measures that may be necessary before testing the intervention in Phase 2, which will involve a randomized factorial trial.
The objective of this study is to conduct a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) evaluating the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a 6-week mobile app-based intervention in empowering and supporting Chinese parents of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) children through knowledge and skills transfer and mindfulness training. The investigators hypothesise that the app will be feasible and acceptable, and that there will be a greater reduction in parental stress and mood symptoms, and improvement of mindfulness attitude and parenting competence in parents with ASD children after the 6-week app-based intervention than the waitlist controls.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a 6-week mobile app-based intervention in empowering and supporting Chinese parents of ASD children through knowledge and skills transfer and mindfulness training, to explore factors associated with enhanced user experiences and sustained usage through participants' qualitative feedback and observing naturalistic usage patterns beyond the active intervention period, and to refine the mobile app based on the data prior to wider dissemination of the app. We hypothesise that there will be a greater reduction in parental stress and mood symptoms, and improvement of mindfulness attitude and parenting competence in parents with ASD children after the 6-week app-based intervention than the waitlist controls.
The purpose of this study is to develop and test two brief online writing interventions to improve parental acceptance of sexual and gender minority youth (SGMY) in the Southeast United States.
