Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of an online parenting program on Filipino parents living in California The main aims are to
Test the effectiveness of the online Incredible Years model of parent training and its impact on primary outcomes Determine the impact of intervention engagement ie higher attendance on parenting practices and child behavior outcomes Describe Intervention delivery and its online implementation in real-world community settings
The study involves two phases
Phase 1 Participants will receive the Online Incredible Years School Age Basic Advanced Parent Training Program intervention and complete parent-reported and child-reported measures at baseline 3 months and 6 months Phase 2 Parenting Group Leaders will each participate in one semi-structured interview to inform the sustainability of the intervention in real world community settings Researchers will compare 250 Filipino immigrant families half of which will receive the intervention and the other half will receive the American Academy of Pediatrics Bright Futures handouts control and be placed on a 3-month waitlist for the IY parenting program Both groups will be followed for a minimum of 6 months with follow- up assessments that include parent-report and child report measures
Detailed Description: Evidence-based parenting interventions provided in early childhood have proven to be effective in preventing the onset and escalation of child mental health disorders The overall objective of the proposed research is to test the effectiveness of a parenting program Incredible Years School Age Advance and Basic Parent Training Program IYP in Filipino parents recruited from multiple community-based settings and its impact on trajectories of parenting practices parenting stress and child problem behavior IYP is one of the best studied and most highly regarded parent training programs
Through pilot studies funded by an National Institutes of Health NIH Mentored Patient-Oriented Research Career Development Award K23 and an National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences NCATS Mentored Career Development Award KL2 award the investigators identified IYP as a community-identified solution for preventing behavioral health disparities demonstrated IYP efficacy in improving parenting practices and parenting stress in Filipino parents and child problem behavior This population was chosen because 1 Filipinos are the second largest immigrant population in the US with the highest concentration living in Los Angeles 2 Filipinos are exposed to multiple adversities including immigration stress and relocation loss of social status and lower self-esteem due to discrimination placing young children at risk for future behavioral and mental health problems 3 US-born Filipino youth exhibit higher rates of mental health problems than non-Hispanic whites and attain significantly lower levels of education than their foreign-born counterparts and other US-born Asian American populations and 4 Filipinos are less likely than non-Hispanic whites to participate in mental health and preventive care interventions
The sample will include 500 individuals 250 Filipino parent-child dyads Data will be obtained using process evaluation tracking system and self-report instruments The specific aim is to test the effectiveness of the Incredible Years model of parent training and its impact on parenting practices primary outcome It is hypothesized that 1 Parents will report and demonstrate improvements in parenting practices after IYP as compared to baseline and to the control condition 2 Parents in the experimental group will show more rapid improvement in parenting practices and these effects will be sustained over time compared to those in the control condition and 3 Parents will report improvements in parenting stress child problem behavior such as internalizing externalizing and depressive symptoms secondary outcomes after IYP as compared to baseline and to the control condition
Findings will contribute to the scientific literature on preventive and early intervention programs for children at high risk for future behavioral problems The data will also provide important information to understand the processes underlying how IYP affects parenting practices and subsequent child problem behavior among Filipino families The importance of this research rests on its potential to prevent behavioral health disparities in this understudied and high-risk population
