A media-based program for parents of mentally retarded children presented information on self-help skill teaching primarily through videotapes and instructional manuals. Sixty-one families were randomly assigned to media-based training, the same curriculum with a professional leader, or a delayed-training control condition. Media-trained families evaluated their program very positively and showed significantly greater gains than did control parents on all but one outcome measure. Live training increased parents' knowledge of behavioral principles more than did media-based training, but otherwise the results of the two conditions were quite similar. Media-based programs may be a cost-effective way to make parent training more widely available.
一个面向智障儿童家长的基于媒体的项目主要通过录像带和指导手册提供关于自助技能教学的信息。61个家庭被随机分配到基于媒体的培训组、有专业指导的相同课程组或延迟培训对照组。接受媒体培训的家庭对该项目评价很高，并且在除一项结果指标外的所有指标上，与对照组家长相比都有显著更大的进步。现场培训比基于媒体的培训更能增加家长对行为原则的了解，但除此之外，两种情况的结果非常相似。基于媒体的项目可能是一种经济有效的方式，能使家长培训更广泛地开展。
