DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Considerable research points to the relatively high prevalence of young children's oppositional, defiant, and disruptive behaviors and their importance in establishing long-term problematic trajectories for later socioemotional, conduct, and academic problems (Campbell, 1995), such as substance use, delinquency, and school failure. The skill with which parents are able to handle these challenging behaviors will influence the long-term developmental trajectories of their children. Parent training programs have shown much value in reducing behavior problems for children of a broad range of ages, thereby reducing their risk for subsequent substance use and other problems of adolescence. The reach of these parenting pro- grams are limited, however, by substantial challenges in recruiting and retaining parents, such that most parents who could benefit from parenting assistance never receive it. Reducing the prevalence of disruptive behavior problems will require public health approaches for improving parenting practices that make evidence-based parenting interventions widely available and accessible in a range of formats. The mass media, and television in particular, hold significant potential as part of a population-wide strategy for bringing evidence-based parenting practices to a broad range of parents experiencing challenges raising their children. The potential of television for affecting parenting has received very little research attention, however; thus, little is known about how media messages to affect parenting practices might be optimally designed. This study will develop and experimentally evaluate two variants of a 10-episode, brief (7 minutes per episode), video-based, infotainment-style broadcast-quality media series targeted at parenting practices, derived from the Triple P-Positive Parenting Program (Sanders, 1999). A sample of 300 families of children ages 3-6 years with somewhat elevated disruptive behavior problems will be randomized to (a) receive an Information-Only version of the series that includes only modeling and demonstration of target parenting skills, (b) receive an Enhanced Behavior Activation version of the series designed to actively pro- mote parental behavior change, through elements addressing attributions, self-efficacy and expectancies, social support, and emotional reactivity, or (c) Waitlist Control. Measures of parents' parenting practices, cognitions, affect, and social support, and children's disruptive behavior problems, will be obtained at base- line, post-intervention, and 6-month follow-up. The relative efficacy of the Standard and Enhanced versions of the Triple P Media Series in improving these outcomes will be examined, as well as moderators of these effects, such as baseline level of behavior problems and parental stress. This study will further our under- standing of the potential value of television programming for improving parenting practices. Bringing effective parenting programs to large numbers of parents through television has the potential to reduce the prevalence of children's behavior problems, and to reduce risks for later problems such as substance use.

描述（由申请人提供）：相当大的研究表明，幼儿的对立，反抗和破坏性行为的患病率相对较高，及其在建立长期有问题的轨迹方面的重要性（Campbell，1995年），例如药物，拖延，拖延，拖延和学校失败。父母能够处理这些具有挑战性的行为的技巧将影响其子女的长期发展轨迹。父母培训计划在减少各种年龄段的儿童的行为问题方面表现出了很大的价值，从而降低了他们随后的药物使用和其他青春期问题的风险。但是，这些育儿过程的覆盖范围受到招募和保留父母的重大挑战的限制，使得大多数可以从育儿援助中受益的父母永远不会得到它。降低破坏性行为问题的流行将需要公共卫生方法来改善育儿惯例，从而使循证育儿干预措施以各种格式广泛使用和可访问。大众媒体，尤其是电视台，作为在人口范围内将基于证据的育儿做法带入各种父母的策略的一部分，持有巨大的潜力。但是，电视影响育儿的潜力很少受到研究的关注。因此，关于如何影响育儿实践的媒体消息如何最佳设计，知之甚少。这项研究将开发和实验评估10集的两个变体，简短（每集7分钟），基于视频的，基于视频的信息娱乐风格的广播质量媒体系列针对育儿实践的媒体系列，这些媒体系列以育儿实践为目标，这些媒体习惯源自三重P阳性育儿计划（Sanders，1999）。 A sample of 300 families of children ages 3-6 years with somewhat elevated disruptive behavior problems will be randomized to (a) receive an Information-Only version of the series that includes only modeling and demonstration of target parenting skills, (b) receive an Enhanced Behavior Activation version of the series designed to actively pro- mote parental behavior change, through elements addressing attributions, self-efficacy and expectancies, social support, and emotional reactivity, or (c) Waitlist 控制。将在基础，干预后和6个月的随访中获得父母的育儿实践，认知，情感和社会支持以及孩子的破坏行为问题的措施。将检查标准P媒体系列的标准版本和增强版本在改善这些结果方面的相对功效，以及这些效果的主持人，例如行为问题的基线水平和父母压力。这项研究将进一步了解电视节目对改善育儿做法的潜在价值。通过电视为大量父母带来有效的育儿计划有可能减少儿童行为问题的患病率，并降低以后的问题（例如使用物质）的风险。
