Parenting programs based on cognitive-behavioral and social learning principles are effective in changing child behavior problems and parenting styles. However, such programs typically have limited population reach. The current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a brief radio series that provided parenting advice based on the Triple P-Positive Parenting Program.
One hundred thirty-nine parents of children aged 2 to 10 years who had concerns about their child's behavioral and/or emotional adjustment were recruited, randomly assigned to either an intervention or waitlist control group, and completed online self-report measures. Parents in the intervention group were given access to seven Triple P podcasts online over a period of 2 weeks.
Parents in the intervention group improved significantly more than parents in the control group, from pre- to postintervention, on measures of child behavioral problems and parenting style, self-efficacy, and confidence. These short-term intervention effects were maintained at the 6-month follow-up.
These results suggest that brief radio and online parenting programs can be effective and have the potential to reach a large proportion of parents experiencing child behavior problems. Limitations, clinical significance, and future research suggestions are discussed.
基于认知行为和社会学习原则的育儿项目在改变儿童行为问题和育儿方式方面是有效的。然而，此类项目的受众范围通常有限。当前研究旨在评估一个简短广播系列节目的效果，该系列节目基于三阶段积极育儿项目提供育儿建议。
招募了139名有2至10岁孩子且担心孩子行为和/或情绪调适问题的家长，将他们随机分为干预组或等待名单对照组，并完成在线自我报告测量。干预组的家长在两周时间内可以在线收听七个三阶段积极育儿项目播客。
从干预前到干预后，干预组家长在孩子行为问题、育儿方式、自我效能感和信心的测量指标上的改善明显多于对照组家长。这些短期干预效果在6个月随访时得以维持。
这些结果表明，简短的广播和在线育儿项目可能有效，并且有潜力覆盖很大一部分面临孩子行为问题的家长。讨论了研究的局限性、临床意义及未来研究建议。
