我们对居住在新兴移民背景下的241名讲西班牙语的拉丁裔父母及其中学子女进行了一项随机对照试验（RCT），该试验是一项文化适应的循证父母管理培训（PMT）预防干预。针对这种情况而设计的项目，很少有科学严谨的研究。干预的目的是促进亲社会父母的做法和防止青少年物质使用和相关的问题行为。该随机对照试验被设计为先前试验的延伸和复制（马丁内斯和埃迪在咨询和临床心理学杂志上，73,841-851,2005），该试验也是在新兴移民背景下进行的。主要关注的两个关键问题是干预的可行性和干预的有效性。干预的可行性通过每周的会议出席、参与、家长报告的会议满意度以及总体计划满意度来评估。通过比较干预组和对照组从干预前基线到干预结束6个月后父母教养方式和青少年适应的变化来评估干预效果。结果为在社区内大规模实施干预的可行性提供了支持。与先前的试验一致，干预对育儿实践和青少年结局的积极影响被发现。根据青年性别和出生状况，发现干预措施的不同效果，例如，女孩在吸烟可能性方面受益最大，而外国出生的青年在减少抑郁症状方面受益最大。研究结果为“新家庭”项目提供了额外的证据，该项目对新兴移民社区内的拉丁裔家庭进行了有效的家庭干预，既改善了育儿实践，又降低了青少年药物使用和相关问题行为的风险。
We conducted a randomized controlled trial (RCT) ofNuestras Familias: Andando Entre Culturas, a culturally adapted evidence-based parent management training (PMT) preventive intervention, with a sample of 241 Spanish-speaking Latino parents and their middle-school-aged children residing in an emerging immigration context. Scientifically rigorous studies of programs designed for this setting are rare. The intervention was designed to promote prosocial parenting practices and to prevent youth substance use and related problem behaviors. The RCT was designed as an extension and replication of a prior trial (Martinez & Eddy inJournal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 73,841–851, 2005) which was also conducted in an emerging immigration context. Two key issues were of primary interest: intervention feasibility and intervention efficacy. Intervention feasibility was assessed through weekly session attendance, participation, and parent-reported session satisfaction as well as overall program satisfaction. Intervention efficacy was assessed by comparing changes within the intervention and control groups on parenting practices and youth adjustment from pre-intervention baseline to post-intervention termination 6 months later. Results provided support for the feasibility of delivering the intervention on a large scale within communities. Consistent with the prior trial, positive effects of the intervention were detected on parenting practices and on youth outcomes. Differential effects of the intervention were detected based on youth gender and nativity status, such that girls benefited the most with respect to tobacco use likelihood, and foreign-born youth benefited the most with respect to decreased depressive symptoms.Findings provide additional evidence forNuestras Familiasas an efficacious family-based intervention for Latino families within communities that are sites of emerging immigration in terms of both improving parenting practices and decreasing risk for youth substance use and related problem behaviors.
