“…This conclusion corresponds with existing evidence indicating that the core components of parent training interventions, such as those included in the GenerationPMTO intervention, are relevant across various cultural and ethnic groups in the US and abroad (Cai et al, 2022; Kaminski et al, 2008; Michelson et al, 2013; van Mourik et al, 2017). Thus, whereas adapting to context and culture continues to be essential to prevent ethnocentric practices, current findings add to the body of meta‐analytic literature highlighting the cross‐cultural relevance of core components commonly associated with parent training interventions (van Mourik et al, 2017).…”

“…The long‐term positive effects of GenerationPMTO have been confirmed in a longitudinal study with low‐income Euro‐American families, with findings indicating significant reductions in youngsters' internalizing and externalizing problematic behaviors spanning over nine years (Forgatch et al, 2009). In addition, recent meta‐analytic data generated with 3893 families indicate the strong effectiveness of the intervention across six countries, representing contrasting contexts and cultural groups (Cai et al, 2022). The intervention effectiveness holds with regards to multiple forms of presenting issues (e.g., clinical issues, parenting prevention), as well as intervention delivery approaches (e.g., individual therapy, parent training groups).…”

Culturally adapting an evidence‐based parenting intervention for the Chilean context: Balancing fidelity, context, and cultural relevance

et al. 2022

The dissemination of evidence‐based parent training (PT) interventions remains extremely limited in Latin American countries. This is concerning when considering the high prevalence of child maltreatment associated with punitive parenting practices across countries in the region. Furthermore, efforts to disseminate PT interventions must be conducted by adhering to the core parenting components that have established effectiveness for such interventions, while ensuring contextual and cultural relevance for focus populations. In this manuscript, we describe the cultural adaptation of an evidence‐based PT intervention in the context of Chile. This initial phase of adaptation was informed by the theoretical tenets of the Ecological Validity Model of cultural adaptation (Bernal et al., J. Abnorm. Child Psychol., 23, 1995, 67). According to findings from a qualitative thematic analysis conducted with five interventionists in training, therapists perceived that the intervention's core components were relevant to Chilean caregivers who participated in the parenting program. Interventionists also provided specific suggestions to enhance the intervention's contextual and cultural relevance. This investigation illustrates the importance of culturally adapting evidence‐based interventions according to comprehensive cultural adaptation frameworks, prior to engaging in large‐scale dissemination of adapted interventions in Latin American contexts.

“…According to meta‐analytic evidence, PT interventions are considered the gold standard for addressing youth externalizing behaviors, including drug use (Cai et al, 2022; Cummings et al, 2011; Michelson et al, 2013). However, only a small proportion of Latina/o immigrant families in the United States have access to preventative evidence‐based culturally adapted PT interventions (Garcia‐Huidobro et al, 2018, 2019).…”

“…Recent meta‐analytic data indicate the consistent effectiveness of GenerationPMTO across various populations, including Latinas/os (Cai et al, 2022). With regard to its implementation, the intervention can be delivered in individual or group formats and its method of delivery consists of a step‐by‐step approach with each new topic building upon a previously learned skill.…”

“…With regard to the CAPAS‐Youth intervention, the primary mechanisms of change are hypothesized to resemble those reported in the GenerationPMTO empirical literature. Specifically, the improvement of child and youth's mental health outcomes are expected to be associated with the enhancement of the following family processes and parenting practices: quality of parent–adolescent communication, parental emotional involvement with children and youth, parental promotion of adolescent self‐sufficient behaviors, nonpunitive discipline, and consistent monitoring of youth behaviors and peer associations (Cai et al, 2022; Forgatch et al, 2013). Although CAPAS parenting trials with Latinas/os have demonstrated significant improvements of caregivers' parenting practices and mental health for children and youth (J. R. Parra‐Cardona et al, 2017; R. Parra‐Cardona et al, 2022), the identification of precise mechanisms of change remains to be evaluated in empirical research.…”

Parent training (PT) interventions reduce the likelihood of youth problematic behaviors, including drug use. However, the dissemination of culturally adapted PT interventions in low-income Latina/o immigrant communities remains scarce. In this selective prevention study, we examined the extent to which exposure to CAPAS-Youth, a culturally adapted version of the PT intervention known as GenerationPMTO © , resulted in increased adolescent perception of harm associated with use of alcohol and other drugs. In a randomized controlled trial with 71 Latina/o immigrant families (95% of parents self-identified as Mexican origin, n = 98), 37 families were allocated to the CAPAS-Youth intervention condition versus wait-list control (n = 34 families). According to adolescents' reports at intervention completion, significant increased levels of perceived harm associated with drug use were found for female youths, but not for males. Differential results indicate the importance of tailoring PT

To determine the efficacy of intervention programs for young children (4–9 years) with emerging mental health needs, we conducted a review of meta-analytic and systematic reviews of the intervention literature. Of 41,061 abstracts identified and 15,076 screened, 152 review articles met the inclusion criteria. We reviewed interventions across multiple disciplines targeting: (1) general mental health concerns; (2) internalizing symptoms; (3) externalizing symptoms; (4) anxiety; (5) depression; (6) trauma; (7) symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; and (8) mental health concerns associated with autism spectrum disorder. Substantial evidence was found for the efficacy of behavioral and cognitive behavioral interventions for general mental health concerns, externalizing symptoms (generally, as well as ADHD, conduct, and other behavioral symptoms) and internalizing symptoms (generally, as well as anxiety) aged 4–9 years. Emerging evidence was identified for interventions targeting trauma symptoms, depression symptoms, and social, emotional and behavioral symptoms in autism spectrum disorder in children aged 4–9 years. Currently there is only limited emerging evidence regarding non-behavioral or non-cognitive behavioral interventions for programs targeting children ages 4–9 years where the aim is to deliver an evidence-based program to improve child social, emotional and/or behavioral functioning. Given the recent rises in mental health needs reported in children, targeted behavioral-and/or cognitive behavior therapy-based interventions should be made widely available to children (and their families) who experience elevated symptoms.
