Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of techniques to enhance participation in parenting programs.
Detailed Description
This project addresses the problem of involving parents in interventions that promote parenting effectiveness and child coping-competence in preschoolers as a means of reducing risk of child maltreatment (and related adverse developmental outcomes). Purdue University will examine the impact of partnership (organizational involvement in recruitment and retention), cash incentives, and a motivational goal setting component on participation and engagement in the Parenting Our Children to Excellence program, a group intervention for parents and caregivers of preschool children.
