Overview
Brief Summary
The investigators will study brief educational interventions designed to address childhood behavior problems and prevent cavities.
Detailed Description
The investigators will study brief educational interventions designed to address childhood behavior problems and prevent cavities. Participants will be parents of children, ages 9 months to 3 years, presenting with their child for a well child visit. Parent/child dyads will be randomized into three different groups: Group 1 will be introduced to an online educational intervention to address childhood behavior problem, Group 2 will be introduced to a printed educational intervention to address childhood behavior problems, and Group 3 will be introduced to an educational intervention to prevent cavities. Study procedures will include 1) the educational intervention in the examination room before the clinic visit, 2) a brief survey immediately after the clinic visit and 3) a brief survey in 2-4 months sent via REDCap, and 4) follow up health and insurance records related to the study interventions.
