简要总结
The purpose to the current study was to examine the comparative efficacy of a more condensed intensive version of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (I-PCIT; 5 days/week over the course of 2 weeks) versus a more traditional weekly PCIT format (1 day/week over the course of 10 weeks) in treating early childhood externalizing behavior problems (EBP).
详细描述
The purpose to the current study was to examine the comparative efficacy of a more condensed intensive version of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (I-PCIT; 5 days/week over the course of 2 weeks) versus a more traditional weekly PCIT format (1 day/week over the course of 10 weeks) in treating early childhood externalizing behavior problems (EBP). Using a randomized trial design, 60 young children (M child age = 4.33 years; range 2-6.92; 65% male; 85% Latinx) with elevated levels of EBP and their mothers were assigned to either I-PCIT (n = 30) or traditional PCIT (n = 30). Families completed pre-treatment and post-treatment assessments as well as a follow-up assessment 6-9 months following treatment completion. Across all assessments, mothers completed measures of child behavior, discipline practices, and parenting stress. Observational data on child behavior and parenting was also collected during three 5-minute standard situations that vary in the degree of parental control (child-led play, parent-led play, & clean-up).

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Externalizing Behavior Problems
时间窗: The measure was collected prior to the start of treatment, immediately following treatment, as well as 6-9 months upon treatment completion
Mothers completed the Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (ECBI; Eyberg \& Ross, 1978), a 36-item questionnaire that is designed to assess the presence of externalizing problems in children ages 2 through 16 years. The total intensity scale t-score was used in the current study as the main measure of EBP (α's .84-.93). The total raw score ranged from 36 to 252. Higher scores indicate the presence of more externalizing behavior problems.
次要结局
- Change in Parenting Skills(The measure was collected prior to the start of treatment, immediately following treatment, as well as 6-9 months upon treatment completion)
- Change in Parenting stress(The measure was collected prior to the start of treatment, immediately following treatment, as well as 6-9 months upon treatment completion)
- Change in Discipline Practices(The measure was collected prior to the start of treatment, immediately following treatment, as well as 6-9 months upon treatment completion)
