项目摘要

Preventive interventions with minoritized families have rarely included content to promote ethnic-racial socialization (i.e., how families teach their children about the values, traditions, and practices associated with their ethnic-racial group). Ethnic-racial socialization plays a key role in mitigating the negative effects of racism on health outcomes and in contributing to children’s social-emotional functioning and healthy-lifestyle behaviors. This omission represents a crucial gap that may be limiting the engagement, reach, and impact of preventive interventions with minoritized families. Furthermore, the prevention and family intervention fields have focused on either social-emotional functioning or healthy lifestyle behaviors, rather than integrating the two domains. Addressing each domain in a separate intervention misses the synergistic effects and is less cost effective than tackling both domains using a single, integrated intervention. To address these gaps, the main objective of this project is to test whether providing parenting support, with an added emphasis on ethnic-racial socialization and healthy lifestyle behaviors, improves the social-emotional functioning and healthy lifestyle behaviors of Black and Latinx children ages 3-6. The guiding hypothesis is that incorporating these components into a parenting intervention will lead to improvements in children’s health as compared to a control condition. This pilot project is novel in that it (a) interweaves positive parenting practices, ethnic-racial socialization, and healthy lifestyle behaviors into a prevention program for Black and Latinx families, and (b) targets preschool aged children using a brief, universal prevention approach, which increases potential for dissemination and scalability. A type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation design is used to simultaneously test intervention effectiveness while also gathering information on intervention delivery to inform future implementation trials. The specific aims are to: (a) test the preliminary effects of a preventive intervention on the social-emotional functioning and healthy lifestyle behaviors of Black and Latinx children, (b) identify the preliminary effects of the intervention on parenting outcomes, and (c) examine potential barriers and facilitators to intervention delivery. The expected contribution of this project is to provide important foundational knowledge regarding whether ethnic-racial socialization and healthy lifestyle behaviors can be integrated into a brief parenting intervention to enhance minoritized children’s physical and emotional health. This contribution is significant because it can lead to advancements in prevention efforts focused on improving child health-related outcomes, potentially decreasing health disparities for minoritized children.

与少数家庭的预防干预措施很少包含促进种族种族的内容社会化（即，家庭如何教孩子有关与之相关的价值观，传统和实践他们的种族种族群体）。种族 - 种族社会化在减轻种族主义的负面影响方面起着关键作用关于健康成果以及为儿童的社会情感功能和健康而贡献的贡献行为。这种遗漏代表了一个关键差距，可能限制了参与，影响和影响与少数家庭的预防干预措施。此外，预防和家庭干预领域专注于社会情感功能或健康的生活方式行为，而不是整合两个域。在单独的干预措施中解决每个领域会错过协同效应，成本较小比使用单个集成干预措施来解决两个领域有效。为了解决这些差距，主要该项目的目的是测试是否提供育儿支持，并更加重视种族种族社会化和健康的生活方式行为，改善社会情感功能和健康的生活方式 3-6岁的黑人和拉丁裔儿童的行为。指导假设是编码这些与育儿干预中的组成部分将导致儿童健康的改善控制条件。这个试点项目是新颖的，因为它（a）与族裔种族的养育方式交织在一起社会化和健康的生活方式行为，以针对黑人和拉丁裔家庭进行预防计划，（b）使用短暂的通用预防方法对学龄前儿童进行目标，这增加了传播和可扩展性。 1型混合有效性 - 实现设计用于同时测试干预效果，同时还收集有关干预交付的信息，以告知未来实施试验。具体目的是：（a）测试预防性干预对黑人和拉丁裔儿童的社会情感功能和健康的生活方式行为，（b）确定干预对育儿结果的初步影响，以及（c）检查潜在的障碍和促进者干预交付。该项目的预期贡献是提供重要的基础关于种族种族社会化和健康生活方式行为是否可以融入的知识简短的育儿干预以增强少数孩子的身体和情感健康。这个贡献是意义重大，因为它可以导致预防努力的进步，重点是改善与儿童健康有关结果，可能会减少少数儿童的健康差异。
