What this trial studies

This randomized, early-phase trial will assign 50 parents of 2- to 5-year-olds with elevated behavioral symptoms to either the PYCC intervention or a control condition in a pediatric primary care setting in Detroit. Parents will be followed for 1 and 3 months to measure changes in child behavioral health and disruptive behavior, parenting practices, and parenting stress, as well as use of and satisfaction with PYCC modules. The study will also report rates of module engagement and overall satisfaction among those assigned to PYCC. Primary hypotheses are that PYCC will reduce child behavior problems and parenting stress and improve positive parenting, and that engagement with PYCC modules will be high. Eligibility includes English-speaking parents of children ages 2-5 with a Preschool Pediatric Symptoms Checklist score of 9 or higher.
