DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Latino youth currently comprise more than one-fifth of the US youth population (Mather & Foxen, 2010), yet this sizeable group of the nation s future adults lags alarmingly behind non-Latino youth in academic achievement. The proposed program, Padres Preparados: A Cultural Adaptation of an Evidence-Based Parenting Intervention for Latino Families (Prepared Parents) aims to address the Latino achievement gap at an early and critical stage through a parent intervention program designed to increase school readiness skills in preschool age children. The content of the program will be based on parenting skills specified by the evidenced-based Oregon Model of Parent Management Training (PMTO), which emphasizes five positive parenting skills: skill building; effective discipline; monitoring; problem-solving; and positive involvement. Padres Preparados is also based on research on the benefits of early childhood education and positive parent involvement in building school readiness skills. Parent involvement has been shown to play a crucial role in children s academic success, but Latino parents may hesitate to participate in parent activities because joint school-home programs are not culturally sensitive. To fully engage Latino parents in their children s education, interventions must be adapted in a way that takes into account their culture, language, and context. In fact, the more closely an intervention is adapted to a particular cultural background, the more effective it is. Padres Preparados will be developed specifically for Spanish-speaking Latino parents, adapting PMTO-based content to address the language, cultural values, and unique contexts of this population using the Cultural Adaptation Process model and the Ecological Validity Model. An interactive, user-friendly, multimedia presentation of culturally adapted PMTO-based parent training will be developed for Latino parents of preschool-age children; the product will be available to parents online or on DVD. Social validity data will be collected via focus groups with Latino parents and preschool staff members, observations at preschool settings, and meetings with Latino community leaders. These data will inform the development of Module 1 of Padres Preparados, which will focus on positive parent involvement in building children s pre-literacy skills. The remaining five modules of this interactive, user-friendly program will be developed in Phase II, along with professional development materials for preschool staff members that will allow them to serve as parent mentors. Following product development, a quasi-experimental pre-post design will be used to assess the usability and feasibility of this intervention with a sample of 50 Spanish-speaking Latino parents who have at least one child currently enrolled in a pre-K program. We will evaluate parental stress, parental self-efficacy and satisfaction, knowledge, and beliefs about the usability and functionality of the program. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The aim of this proposal is to develop a skill-building multimedia Spanish-language intervention, Padres Preparados: A Cultural Adaptation of an Evidence Based Parenting Intervention for Latino Families (Prepared Parents), accessible to Latino parents through Head Start and other preschool facilities. The program, designed to be delivered by preschool staff, will provide parenting and school-readiness skills, which are early and crucial steps toward closing the current achievement gap. A feasibility test of the program will be conducted with parents of children in Head Start programs in Oregon and Utah.

拉丁裔青年目前占美国青年人口的五分之一以上（马瑟和福克斯，2010年），但这个国家未来成年人的相当大的群体在学术成就方面远远落后于非拉丁裔青年。拟议的方案，教士的父母：一个基于证据的养育干预拉丁美洲家庭（准备好的父母）的文化适应，旨在解决拉丁美洲的成就差距在早期和关键阶段，通过父母干预方案，旨在提高学龄前儿童的入学准备技能。该方案的内容将基于父母管理培训（PMTO）的循证俄勒冈州模式所规定的育儿技能，该模式强调五种积极的育儿技能：技能建设;有效的纪律;监测;解决问题;和积极参与。Padres Escherados还基于对幼儿教育和家长积极参与建立入学准备技能的好处的研究。父母的参与已被证明在孩子的学业成功中起着至关重要的作用，但拉丁美洲的父母可能会犹豫参加家长活动，因为联合学校家庭计划不具有文化敏感性。为了让拉丁裔父母充分参与子女的教育，干预措施必须以考虑到他们的文化、语言和背景的方式进行调整。事实上，干预措施越是适应特定的文化背景，就越有效。Padres Eschados将专门为讲西班牙语的拉丁裔父母开发，使用文化适应过程模型和生态有效性模型调整基于PMTO的内容，以解决该人群的语言，文化价值观和独特背景。将为学龄前儿童的拉丁裔父母开发一个互动的、用户友好的、多媒体的介绍文化适应的基于PMTO的父母培训的产品;该产品将在网上或DVD上提供给父母。社会有效性数据将通过与拉丁裔父母和学前工作人员的焦点小组，在学前教育机构的观察，以及与拉丁裔社区领导人的会议来收集。这些数据将为制定Padres Escherados模块1提供信息，该模块将侧重于父母积极参与培养儿童的识字前技能。这一互动式、用户友好型方案的其余五个模块将在第二阶段开发，沿着学前工作人员的专业发展材料，使他们能够担任家长导师。在产品开发之后，将使用准实验性的前后设计来评估这种干预的可用性和可行性，样本为50名讲西班牙语的拉丁裔父母，他们目前至少有一个孩子参加了学前班。我们将评估父母的压力、父母的自我效能感和满意度、对该程序的可用性和功能的知识和信念。 公共卫生相关性：该提案的目的是开发一种技能建设多媒体西班牙语干预措施，即“Padres Padados：对拉丁美洲家庭基于证据的育儿干预措施的文化适应”（准备好的父母），通过“开端”和其他学前设施向拉丁美洲父母提供。该计划旨在由学前教育工作人员提供，将提供育儿和入学准备技能，这是缩小目前成绩差距的早期和关键步骤。该计划的可行性测试将与俄勒冈州和犹他州的“先声夺人”计划中的儿童家长一起进行。
