“…For instance, there is evidence that immigrant families receiving parent-training interventions may need extra practice sessions to acquire the skills taught due to lack of cultural familiarity with these skills (Lau et al 2011). Relatedly, in a study examining the implementation of a culturally-adapted PCIT protocol for Latino families, researchers found that some of the skills taught during the intervention (i.e., the CDI skills and the time-out procedure in the PDI phase) were negatively perceived by these families.…”

Parent Training and Skill Acquisition and Utilization Among Spanish- and English-Speaking Latino Families

et al. 2017

In the U.S., there is a growing Latino population, in which parents primarily speak Spanish to their children. Despite the evidence that language preference is associated with level of acculturation and influences parenting practices in these families, no study has compared how Spanish-and English-speaking Latino families acquire and utilize the skills taught during parent-training programs such as Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). Twenty-seven mother-infant Latino dyads received a home-based adaptation of the Child-Directed Interaction (CDI) phase of PCIT as part of a larger randomized control trial. Most infants were male (63%), and their average age was 13.7 months (SD = 1.43). Most families (52%) lived below the poverty line. The Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System-Third Edition (DPICS-III) was employed to evaluate PCIT skills at baseline and post-treatment, as well as at 3- and 6-month follow-up, assessments. We conducted multiple linear regression analyses among Spanish-speaking (55%) and English-speaking (45%) families to examine differences in acquisition and utilization of do and don’t skills at each assessment while controlling for mother’s education. Results yielded no group differences in the acquisition rate of do or don’t skills at any time point. However, Spanish-speaking mothers used significantly more don’t skills than English-speaking mothers at each assessment. Specifically, Spanish-speaking families used significantly more commands at baseline, post-treatment, and the 6-month followup assessments, as well as more questions at post-treatment and at the 6-month follow-up assessments. These findings highlight the importance of addressing cultural values such as respeto to ensure culturally robust parent-training programs for Latino families.

“…Adaptations and abbreviated versions of PCIT and the Incredible Years program showed preliminary positive effects in various populations, including Mexican-American families (44), Chinese families (33,45), AfricanAmerican families (46), children in Head Start (47,48), and children identified in pediatric medical settings (31,32,49). Various forms of the Incredible Years program implemented Children randomly assigned to CLAS had fewer inattention and sluggish cognitive tempo symptoms and improved social and organizational skills, compared with those in the control group.…”

“…Twelve RCTs that had been published after the previous reviews had been conducted were also identified. Their topics were family-centered behavioral interventions (31)(32)(33)(34), school-based behavioral interventions (35)(36)(37), and integrated behavioral interventions (23,24,(38)(39)(40). Tables 2 and 3 summarize the reviews and the RCTs, respectively.…”

“…Assessment-guided treatment guarantees that the parents have reached mastery criteria for child-led play and discipline skills before they graduate, which indicates that they have a high level of proficiency with the skills they need to manage their children's behaviors (Eyberg & Funderburk, 2011). Practicing parenting skills until mastery is reached may be especially important for immigrant families, as some of these practices are less culturally familiar and are therefore more challenging to implement successfully (Lau, Fung, Ho, Liu, & Gudiño, 2011;McCabe et al, 2013).…”

Latina/o immigrant children are at increased risk for developing conduct disorders, and are simultaneously less likely to access services. Natural helpers are uniquely positioned to promote effective parent training programs to address service disparities in these communities. This study describes one effort to train natural helpers to increase engagement in parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT), an evidence-based parent training program. An academic-community partnership prompted the development and evaluation of this natural helpers training program. Five natural helpers were trained to recruit Latina/o families into PCIT, address barriers to treatment, and support parents' skill development. Over the course of training, natural helpers increased their knowledge of PCIT and their ability to use and model treatment targeted parenting skills. Additional consultation was necessary to improve the natural helpers' abilities to conduct behavioral observations of parent skill use and provide feedback on these skills. Natural helpers expressed overall satisfaction with PCIT and the training program. Suggestions for incorporating natural helpers into PCIT services are discussed based on the strengths and challenges identified from the evaluation of this training program.
