Improving parenting interventions for young children through telehealth
Stop, focus, plan, and change: A translational approach to predict parent and child responses to a brief, telehealth parent training
This study is looking to make parenting programs better for parents of kids aged 3 to 7 who are having behavior issues, by figuring out what might make some families struggle with these programs and adjusting them based on what parents say, all while providing support through online sessions.

What this research studies
This research focuses on enhancing the effectiveness of parenting interventions for children aged 3 to 7 years who exhibit behavioral concerns. It aims to identify factors that predict poor responses to established parenting programs and to modify these interventions based on parental feedback. The approach includes recruiting parents from a children's hospital and Head Start programs, where they will receive behavioral parent training via telehealth. The study will assess various predictors, such as parental executive functioning and social determinants of health, to tailor the interventions more effectively.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for participation are parents of children aged 3 to 7 years who are experiencing externalizing behavioral issues.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have children within the specified age range or who are not experiencing behavioral concerns may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to more effective parenting strategies that improve mental health outcomes for young children.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown promise in using telehealth for parenting interventions, indicating that this approach may be effective.
