This study tested the efficacy of a 12-session parent training program, the Chicago Parent Program (CPP), which was developed in collaboration with African American and Latino parents. Using growth curve modeling, data were analyzed from 253 parents (58.9% African American, 32.8% Latino) of 2-4 year old children enrolled in seven day care centers serving low-income families. Day care centers were matched and randomly assigned to intervention and waiting-list control conditions. At 1-year follow-up, intervention group parents used less corporal punishment and issued fewer commands with their children. Intervention children exhibited fewer behavior problems during observed play and clean-up sessions than controls. Additional group differences were observed when dose was included in the analytic model. Parents who participated in at least 50% of CPP sessions also reported greater improvements in parenting self-efficacy, more consistent discipline, greater warmth, and a decline in child behavior problems when compared to reports from controls. The implications of these results for preventive parent training with low-income African American and Latino parents and the role of intervention dose on parent-child outcomes are discussed.
本研究测试了一个为期12节的家长培训项目——芝加哥家长项目（CPP）的效果，该项目是与非裔美国人和拉丁裔家长合作开发的。使用增长曲线模型，对来自7个为低收入家庭服务的日托中心的253名2至4岁儿童的家长（58.9%为非裔美国人，32.8%为拉丁裔）的数据进行了分析。日托中心进行了匹配，并随机分配到干预组和等待名单对照组。在1年的随访中，干预组的家长对孩子使用体罚的次数减少，发出的指令也减少。与对照组相比，干预组的孩子在观察到的玩耍和清理环节中表现出的行为问题更少。当在分析模型中纳入剂量因素时，观察到了其他组间差异。与对照组的报告相比，参加了至少50%的CPP课程的家长在育儿自我效能感、更一致的纪律、更多的温情方面也有更大的改善，孩子的行为问题也有所减少。本文讨论了这些结果对低收入非裔美国人和拉丁裔家长预防性家长培训的意义以及干预剂量对亲子结果的作用。
