简要总结
The Triple P program is a comprehensive system of parenting and family support of multilevel preventive intervention, developed for families with members up to 16 years of age, whose objective is to improve parenting skills and prevent or modify dysfunctional parenting practices, thus reducing Family risk factors that affect both child abuse, behavioral problems and emotional problems.
详细描述
Based on the importance that evidence-based parental interventions have acquired and the need from the health field to provide innovative alternatives that facilitate access to this type of services, parental support programs given through the web emerge. There is evidence that supports the idea that parenting programs taught through the web have an influence on reducing disruptive behaviors in children.
Triple P Online (TPOL) is an adaptation of the Positive Parenting Program, Triple P, a program that has been empirically tested. This adaptation is a parental intervention through the web with self-directed modality, which is based on Level 4 of the Triple P parental program and is configured in 8 interactive sessions with online modules. The topics covered are: 1) What is Positive Parenting, 2) Reinforcing the behavior we want, 3) Teaching new skills, 4) Managing negative behaviors, 5) Managing disobedience, 6) Preventing problems through planning, 7) Making fun outings, 8) Raising confident and competent children.
The main results observed in the implementation of the online Triple P program are (Sanders et al, 2012): reduction of problem child behavior, dysfunctional parenting styles, increasing parents' confidence in their parenting role, and reduction of parental anger.
