Brief Summary

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

This pilot study aims to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of text messages designed to encourage shared reading among urban parents. We hypothesize that parents will report reading more often to their children after receiving the text messages.

Detailed Description

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

This is a single arm, pilot study. The participants enrolled will receive two text messages per week for a 4 week period (a total of 8 messages). At the end of the study period we will assess change in number of reading occurrences using a validated measure. Parents will also complete a brief acceptability survey.
