本研究评估了约旦全国实施的“更好的养育计划”(BPP)，该计划旨在提高父母与照顾幼儿相关的知识、态度和行为。参与者（N = 337，94% 为女性）被随机分配到实验组或对照组。实验组参加BPP；对照组没有。在 BPP 之前和之后，所有参与者都完成了调查问卷，以评估他们对儿童发展关键领域、与孩子的活动、纪律实践以及对构成虐待和忽视儿童的行为的看法的了解。随着时间的推移，实验组的参与者（而非对照组的参与者）的育儿知识有所提高，花时间与孩子一起玩耍和读书，在管教孩子的过程中使用更多的解释，并准确地感知构成忽视儿童的行为。结果表明，参与 BPP 的有益效果不大。
This study evaluates the Better Parenting Programme (BPP) which has been implemented nationally in Jordan to enhance parents' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours related to caring for young children. The participants (N = 337, 94% female) were randomly assigned to an experimental group or a control group. The experimental group participated in the BPP; the control group did not. Before and after the BPP, all participants completed questionnaires to assess their knowledge regarding key areas of child development, activities with their children, discipline practices, and perceptions regarding behaviours that constitute child abuse and neglect. Over time, the participants in the experimental group (but not those in the control group) improved on parenting knowledge, spending time playing and reading books with their children, using more explanations during the course of disciplining their child, and accurately perceiving behaviours that constitute child neglect. The results suggest modest beneficial effects of participation in the BPP.
