To evaluate the efficacy of a behavioural family intervention, Stepping Stones Triple P (SSTP), combined with an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) workshop in improving parent, family and couple outcomes following paediatric acquired brain injury (ABI).
Fifty-nine parents (90% mothers) of children (mean age 7 years; 35 males, 24 females) with ABI.
Participants were randomly assigned to a treatment (10-week group SSTP and ACT program) or a care-as-usual (CAU) control condition (10 weeks). Those in the CAU condition received the treatment after the waitlist period.
Self-report measures of parent psychological distress, parent psychological flexibility, parenting confidence, family functioning, and couple relationship, assessed at: pre-intervention, post-intervention, and 6-months post-intervention.
Post-intervention, the treatment group showed significant, small to medium improvements relative to the CAU group (at the p < .05 level) on parent psychological distress, parent psychological flexibility, parent confidence in managing behaviours, family adjustment,and number of disagreements between parents. Most improvements were maintained at 6-months.
Parent skills training and ACT may be efficacious in improving parent, family, and couple outcomes in families of children with an ABI.
评估行为家庭干预“三步进阶正面管教法”(SSTP)与接受与承诺疗法(ACT)工作坊联合应用于改善儿科获得性脑损伤(ABI)患儿父母、家庭和夫妻结局的疗效。
59 名患儿父母(90%为母亲),其子女(平均年龄 7 岁;35 名男性,24 名女性)患有 ABI。
参与者被随机分配到治疗组(10 周团体 SSTP 和 ACT 方案)或常规护理对照组(CAU)(10 周)。CAU 组在等待期后接受治疗。
在以下时间点评估父母心理困扰、父母心理灵活性、养育信心、家庭功能和夫妻关系的自我报告测量结果:干预前、干预后和干预后 6 个月。
干预后,治疗组在父母心理困扰、父母心理灵活性、父母管理行为的信心、家庭适应以及父母之间的分歧数量方面,与 CAU 组相比,表现出显著的、小到中等程度的改善(p<.05)。大多数改善在 6 个月时仍保持。
家长技能培训和 ACT 可能对改善患有 ABI 儿童的父母、家庭和夫妻结局有效。
