Interventions

  • ezParent — BEHAVIORAL
    Hybrid ezParent includes the web-based ezParent program and 4 synchronous group sessions. ezParent is a 6-module digital delivery of the group-based Chicago Parent Program (CPP). The purpose of the program is to strengthen parenting, decrease child behavior problems, and increase child prosocial behavior. Each module includes: a video narrator describing parenting strategies; video vignettes of parents and children as examples of how parenting strategies work; questions following each vignette for parents to reflect upon; interactive activities for parents to complete; knowledge questions to assess parent understanding of the strategies; and practice assignments. Parents are instructed to complete modules independently between synchronous group sessions. Group sessions are 1-1.5 hours and follow a discussion guide to reinforce key content, build community, and support parents in using ezParent. Trained facilitators lead groups of about 10 parents either in-person or virtual.

Study Details

The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of the hybrid ezParent program (e.g., web-based training program plus synchronous group sessions) on parent and child outcomes in a community setting serving parents of children 2-5 years old. Parent participants will complete surveys at baseline, and 10 and 24-weeks post baseline.
