Interventions

  • The Parenting Young Children Check-up — BEHAVIORAL
    The Parenting Young Children Check-up (PYCC) is a technology-based program for parents of young children with challenging behavior. The PYCC has three components: 1) the initial check-up, 2) text messages, and 3) the parenting program website.

Study Details

The proposed project aims to evaluate the Parenting Young Children Check-up (PYCC) through a randomized clinical trial in a family medicine clinic in Detroit that primarily serves low-income families. Forty parents will be randomized to intervention (n = 20) or control (n = 20) conditions. We will follow up with parents 1 month and 3-months later to test the impact of the program on children's behavioral health/disruptive behavior problems, parenting, and parenting stress and to examine how much parents in the intervention group make use of and report satisfaction with the PYCC program.
