To assess the impact of a parenting intervention, (FPNG), intended to support children, on parents heavy drinking. We hypothesized that parent participants of FPNG would reduce their heavy drinking at 1-year follow-up.
Parents ( = 281) of middle school children from a large, low-income metropolitan area in the Southwest United States participated in a randomized control trial over 2 years.
A logistic regression analysis using the maximum likelihood test determined that at Wave 3, parents receiving FPNG reduced heavy drinking behaviors compared to parents in the youth-only condition (odds ratio = .86, < .05).
Participating in the parenting program can effectively curb heavy drinking behaviors in parents-an important mechanism through which one may expect changes in youth risk behavior. The practice, policy, and research implications of these unintended findings are promising to the overall effectiveness of a parenting intervention for Mexican-heritage families.
评估一项旨在支持儿童的育儿干预措施(FPNG)对父母酗酒的影响。我们假设参与FPNG的父母在1年随访时会减少酗酒行为。
来自美国西南部一个大型低收入大都市地区的中学生家长(n = 281)参与了一项为期2年的随机对照试验。
使用最大似然检验的逻辑回归分析确定,在第3阶段,与仅针对青少年的干预组中的父母相比,接受FPNG的父母减少了酗酒行为(优势比 = 0.86,P < 0.05)。
参与育儿项目可以有效抑制父母的酗酒行为——这是一个人们可能期望青少年风险行为发生变化的重要机制。这些意外发现对墨西哥裔家庭育儿干预措施的整体有效性在实践、政策和研究方面具有启示意义。
