Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial addresses a serious and all-too-frequent public health problem, namely early-onset disruptive behavior problems in young children. The focus is on testing an online treatment program which empowers parents to help their children to improve their mental health and behavioral functioning. At the conclusion of the study, the investigators will know whether the online-delivered program works as well as an established staff-delivered program, with respect to child disruptive behavior problems, parenting, parent/family stress, consumer satisfaction, and value analysis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

High-prevalence mental health problems require innovative strategies to broaden reach of evidence-based services. Disruptive behavior problems (DBPs), or conduct problems, in young children represent a major public health challenge that is not only highly prevalent but also, left untreated, heighten risk for adverse mental health and developmental outcomes in adolescence and adulthood. Internet and online technology has considerable potential to help achieve such a goal. Building on parenting interventions that have demonstrated impact on childhood DBPs, this clinical trial compares an online-delivered intervention to a well-validated staff-delivered intervention, holding program content constant. Both interventions are based on the Triple P-Positive Parenting Program. The sample includes families with a 3-7 year old child who has a pronounced level of DBPs. The study makes use of a non-inferiority trial design to determine whether the online-delivered intervention yields as good outcomes as the well-established staff-delivered intervention with respect to childhood DBPs, parenting, and parent/family stress. The study also includes a value analysis comparing the two interventions, accounting for provider and participant expenses as well as pre-implementation and implementation phases. This study is intended to shed light on the impact and potential benefits of a viable online parenting intervention for childhood disruptive behavior problems, but the results from this study are also intended to help the mental health field to better understand more broadly the potential advantages and disadvantages of online interventions over traditionally delivered interventions, particularly in light of expense minimization/effectiveness analysis.

Online-Delivered Parenting Intervention

The Online-Delivered Parenting Intervention, which is based on the Triple P--Positive Parenting Program system of interventions, is an interactive website designed to engage and activate the participant through sequenced, personalized, interactive, and video-based content. The intervention emphasizes a self-regulatory process, parent specification of goals, practical and straightforward parenting strategies, modeling, and action activation.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Triple P--Positive Parenting Program

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The Triple P--Positive Parenting Program (Triple P), which has an extensive evidence base, is grounded in a common set of core principles of positive parenting and draws on a broad menu of parenting strategies. A key provision of Triple P is that parents are the decision-makers about program goals and selection/implementation of specific parenting strategies consistent with their preferences and values.

Staff-Delivered Parenting Intervention

The Staff-Delivered Parenting Intervention is based on the Triple P--Positive Parenting Program system and involves 10 face-to-face sessions with each family. This intervention is the well-established Level 4 Standard Triple P program.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Triple P--Positive Parenting Program

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The Triple P--Positive Parenting Program (Triple P), which has an extensive evidence base, is grounded in a common set of core principles of positive parenting and draws on a broad menu of parenting strategies. A key provision of Triple P is that parents are the decision-makers about program goals and selection/implementation of specific parenting strategies consistent with their preferences and values.
