Detailed Description

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

This randomized controlled experimental study included pretest, posttest, and monitoring test applications with an intervention group, an active control group, and a no-contact control group. The study was conducted between May 2020 and June 2022. The universe of the study consisted of 653 parents with preschool (ages 3-6) children registered to the Izmir Bornova Şükrü Ergil Family Health Center No:9. Sample size was calculated using power analysis and assigned randomly to the intervention, active control, and no-contact control groups in groups of 24 (n=72). The intervention group was provided with 8 weekly sessions of a 90 minutes positive discipline program while the active control group was provided with 8 weekly 90 minute sessions of free interaction. No intervention was performed with the no-contact control group. Data collection was performed using a Personal Information Form, Parental Attitude Scale (PAS), Assessment of Parenting Attitudes of Couples Scale (APACS) and the Parent Child Communication Scale (PCCS).
