Despite substantial evidence demonstrating the important influence that parents have on adolescent drinking, evidence-based preventative interventions that help parents to reduce the risk that their child will develop later alcohol use problems are lacking. Although some face-to-face family-based interventions for adolescent alcohol misuse have been found to be effective, their public health impact is limited by their labour-intensiveness, poor uptake and low adherence. A web-based intervention has the potential to overcome many of these challenges, and was recently recommended by prevention experts as one key way to increase participation rates in preventative interventions. This paper describes the development of www.parentingstrategies.net , a website providing parenting guidelines and a tailored web-based intervention endorsed by longitudinal research evidence and expert consensus.
This website provides the first web-based preventative intervention for parents, and has great potential as a family friendly component in the spectrum of interventions that are critically needed to tackle the issue of adolescent alcohol misuse across the community.
尽管有大量证据表明父母对青少年饮酒有重要影响，但缺乏基于证据的预防性干预措施来帮助父母降低孩子日后出现酒精使用问题的风险。虽然一些针对青少年酒精滥用的面对面家庭干预措施已被证明是有效的，但它们的劳动强度大、接受度低和依从性差限制了其对公共卫生的影响。基于网络的干预措施有可能克服其中许多挑战，最近预防专家推荐其为提高预防性干预措施参与率的一种关键方式。本文介绍了www.parentingstrategies.net网站的开发情况，该网站提供育儿指南以及一项基于网络的量身定制干预措施，该措施得到了纵向研究证据和专家共识的认可。
该网站为父母提供了首个基于网络的预防性干预措施，作为社区应对青少年酒精滥用问题所需的一系列干预措施中对家庭友好的组成部分，具有巨大潜力。
