To decrease psychological distress among children's parent having behavioral and emotional issues.
IPSA (Improving Parenting Skills adult ADHD) is a new parent training (PT) program developed and adapted for parents who themselves have Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study evaluates the efficacy of the IPSA program, that is, whether participation in IPSA is associated with desired treatment outcomes (e.g., improved parental self-efficacy). In addition, it examines the program's feasibility (e.g., what parents think about the program, the extent to which parents complete the program, and program safety). The study is a so called randomized controlled trial (RCT), where participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: Treatment (IPSA) or Control (continued routine services; offered IPSA approximately six months later). Participants are adults with ADHD (any form) that have at least one child in the ages between 3 and 11 years. Data are primarily collected using questionnaires, completed by parents before and after IPSA, as well as in connection with an IPSA booster session (follow-up).
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.
In Sierra Leone, poverty and challenges with family functioning can lead to family separation, and children may go to live on the street or enter residential care institutions/orphanages. Helping Children Worldwide (HCW), a non-profit organization with over 20 years of experience in Sierra Leone, has developed a two-part Family Strengthening Program delivered by their program partners in Sierra Leone, the Child Reintegration Centre, to improve families financial literacy and attachment between caregivers and children, with the ultimate goal of preventing family separation. The hypothesis of this study is that the Family Strengthening Program program is effective at (1) changing parenting behaviors, (2) improving emotional regulation, (3) improving caregiver-child attachment, and (4) improving financial literacy in dyads consisting of children ages 9-13 and their caregivers.
Investigation of the efficacy of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for the psychological treatment of parental stress in relatives of people with intellectual disabilities
Consistent use of continuous glucose monitors (CGM) has the potential to improve glycemic control and related type 1 diabetes (T1D) health outcomes, however young adolescents with T1D are the least likely age group to begin and sustain use of CGM. The proposed study will conduct a feasibility trial of a behavioral intervention designed to optimize use of CGM in adolescents specifically targeting underrepresented populations in diabetes technology research.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that parents read to their children as often as possible beginning in infancy and limits on screen time at all ages, yet many families question the value of reading to infants and are uncertain how to do so, and screen time is rising. This proposal is highly relevant to public health in that it involves a "how-to" approach to reading with infants and limiting screen time that is delivered during pediatric well-child visits within an established program (Reach Out and Read) using innovative materials: specially designed children's books and animated educational videos featured in a new mobile app (Reading Bees). It addresses important research gaps, compliments existing programs and empowers families, particularly from underserved backgrounds, to read more interactively and enjoyably with their babies, limit screen time, and improve early literacy skills, relationships and health outcomes.
The PLAYshop program is a novel, brief, theory-based, parent-focused physical literacy intervention, that can help mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on physical activity of children from diverse and vulnerable families who have been disproportionally affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic. Primary Research Question: Among vulnerable families (e.g., lower socioeconomic status), does the PLAYshop program increase parental capability, opportunity, and motivation to support preschool-aged children's physical literacy development, compared to controls?
This is a cross-sectional study of a randomized clinical trial to investigate nutritional aspects of pre-scholar aged children born preterm submitted to an early stimulation program versus conventional care program. The preterm-born children participated in the project entitle "Early Intervention Program for Preterm Infants and Their Parents: establishing the impact at 18 Months Corrected Age" (NCT02835612), which performed a continuous early stimulation in very and extremely preterm infant's families in their first 12 to 18 months. In the present study, preterm born children currently with 3 to 6 years old and their mothers (or legal guardian) are once more invited to a one-day visit for a nutritional and clinical evaluation at the Clinical Research Center of Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre/Brazil. In the consultation, preterm born children and theirs mothers are submitted to the following exams: body composition by electrical bioimpedance, clinical and physical evaluation, anthropometric measurements, and children's eating habits, eating behavior and parental educational style in food through specific questionnaires. Moreover, this study will also investigate a group of pre-scholar health children born at term to obtain reference values for variables analysed. The goal with these findings is to determine if an early stimulation program could present a positive impact in anthropometric outcomes and nutritional aspects in this more vulnerable preterm born population.
Objective: To investigate the effect of FCR as part of the FICare principles during hospital stay, on parental stress at discharge in parents of preterm or ill infants admitted to the neonatal ward for >7 days as compared to standard medical rounds (SMR) without parents as part of standard neonatal care (SNC).
