Brief Summary:
Parents of children from impoverished communities are disproportionately more likely to engage in harsh physical discipline which can lead to serious clinical outcomes including suicidal ideation and attempts One mechanism linking low resource environments and maladaptive parenting strategies is maternal delay discounting or the tendency to value smaller immediate rewards such as stopping childrens misbehavior via physical means relative to larger but delayed rewards like improving the parent-child relationship This study will examine the efficacy of implementing a low-cost brief intervention targeting the reduction of maternal delay discounting to inform broader public health efforts aimed at improving adolescent mental health outcomes in traditionally underserved communities
Detailed Description:
Harsh parenting is associated with serious and costly mental health problems among youth including substance use mood disorders and suicidal ideation and behaviors Of concern these parenting practices are most common among families from impoverished communities however many behaviorally-based parenting interventions do not take into account the unique mechanisms linking environmental disadvantage to parenting approaches While the causes of harsh parenting are complex and varied one such mechanism may be parents tendencies to prioritize immediate rewards such as stopping a childs misbehavior via physical punishment like spanking and hitting relative to larger but delayed rewards including improved parent-child relationship quality known as delay discounting
The aims of the current study are to conduct a Stage 1 parent-child dyad randomized control trial RCT n 72 examining the effectiveness of a brief episodic future thinking EFT intervention in a community setting serving low-income mothers and additional implementation data Participants will be randomized to receive either Episodic Future Thinking EFT or Episodic Recent Thinking ERT intervention arms This case series will examine the efficacy of episodic future thinking EFT compared to episodic recent thinking ERT to target reduction of parenting-related delay discounting Outcomes will evaluate the effect of EFT on reducing maternal delay discounting and harsh parenting and improving child clinical outcomes
