Promoting positive parenting practices in primary pare: Outcomes and mechanisms of change in a randomized controlled risk reduction trial

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether a short parent-training program (PT) reduces risk factors related to development of childhood socio-emotional and behavior problems in a non-clinical community sample. Data were obtained from parents in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) on PT for children aged 2 to 8 years (N=186) at pre-intervention, post-intervention and one-year-follow up. There were significant differences in the changes in the two groups, with reductions in harsh parenting and child b… Show more

“…Three summary scores were computed: harsh and inconsistent discipline (15 items), praise and incentives (11 items) and total score (80 items). This was in line with previous use of the PPI scale, dividing it into subscales of positive and negative parenting (Kling et al, 2010;Larsson et al, 2009;Reedtz, Handegard, & Morch, 2011;Webster-Stratton et al, 2001). All items were rated on a 7-point Likert scale.…”

“…The programs have been designed for certain populations at risk of behavioral problems or that already manifest some maladjustment. Interventions in this realm usually involve treatment for oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder or preventive measures for children with high risk of behavioral disorders (Reedtz, Handegård, and Mørch, 2011). Problems such as oppositional defiant disorder or conduct disorder are predictive of school dropout, substance abuse, and Most of these programs have been initially designed to be administered at home by a trained practitioner such as a therapist or social worker.…”

“…Resource limitations allowed for only two data collection points. Changes are commonly found immediately after interventions, whereas maintenance of change at follow-up is perhaps a better indicator of an effective program because immediate effects may fade over time (Reedtz, Handegard, & Mørch, 2011); hence, questionnaire data were collected from parents and preschool teachers at baseline (Time 1) and at follow-up approximately seven months later (Time 2), prior to the end of the preschool year.…”
