本随机实验性预防研究(a)评估了238名1-3年级有儿子的离婚母亲的父母培训计划的有效性;(B)提供了胁迫理论的实验性测试。干预减少了观察到的强制养育,防止衰减的积极养育,并普遍提高了有效的养育方法在实验组和对照组的母亲比较。此外,胁迫理论也得到了支持。改善父母的做法显着相关的改善教师报告的学校适应,儿童报告的适应不良,母亲报告的适应不良。干预措施间接受益于儿童的成果,通过改善父母的做法为基础的模式,儿童报告,并在较小程度上,对教师的报告。干预措施对儿童结果没有直接影响。
This randomized experimental prevention study (a) evaluated the effectiveness of a parent-training program in a sample of 238 divorcing mothers with sons in Grades 1-3 and (b) provided an experimental test of coercion theory. The intervention produced reductions in observed coercive parenting, prevented decay in positive parenting, and generally improved effective parenting practices in comparisons of mothers in experimental and control groups. Moreover, coercion theory was supported. Improved parenting practices correlated significantly with improvements in teacher-reported school adjustment, child-reported maladjustment, and mother-reported maladjustment. The intervention indirectly benefitted child outcomes through improved parenting practices for a model based on child report and, to a lesser extent, on teacher report. The intervention did not produce direct effects on child outcomes.
