简要总结
This is an unblinded, feasibility study of an adapted positive parenting intervention to be carried out in a small sample (n=12 dyads) of young children with FASD and their primary caregiver in King County, WA.
详细描述
This is an initial feasibility study to examine Families Moving Forward Bridges (FMF Bridges), an FASD-informed early intervention designed to meet the specific needs of young children 6-36 months with prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) or FASD and their caregivers. FMF Bridges was developed by this research team and is adapted from a scientifically-validated positive parenting intervention (Families Moving Forward) shown to be efficacious with preschool and school-aged children affected by PAE or FASD. FMF Bridges merges key components of FASD-informed care with family-centered and relationship-based early intervention practices and is designed to be delivered in community-based early intervention programs. The FMF Bridges early intervention needs to be tested with children and families in the community-based early intervention settings for which it was designed. The study team plans to evaluate the feasibility of FMF Bridges in a small community trial. the team will partner with an early intervention program that has a high population of children with prenatal alcohol exposure. EI providers will be trained as FMF Bridges Specialists and deliver the intervention to a total of 12 dyads (young child and their primary caregiver). Dyads will receive ten 60-minute manualized FMF Bridges intervention sessions over 3-5 months (approximately every other week) from community EI providers trained as FMF Bridges Specialists.
Primary Aim 1: Examine the feasibility of implementing the FMF Bridges early intervention in a community early intervention setting.
The study will focus on answering the questions: 1) Is it practical to implement the FMF Bridge intervention in a community EI setting? 2) Can the intervention be implemented with fidelity? 3) Is the intervention acceptable to providers and caregivers? and 4) What refinements might be needed to improve the feasibility of implementation?

研究组 & 干预措施
FMF Bridges Early Intervention Program
Following enrollment, a baseline assessment session will be completed (see caregiver and child assessments document uploaded). Following the assessment, the caregiver will receive intervention services from a trained FMF Bridges Specialists from Wonderland Child and Family Services within 1 month of completing the baseline assessment. The trained EI providers will deliver the FMF Bridges intervention, comprised of 10, 60-minute manualized intervention sessions (see FMF Bridges Intervention Protocol and Materials document). Sessions are expected to be delivered weekly or bi-weekly in the home (the standard of care for EI services), over a 3-to-5-month time period, with those electing to complete weekly sessions taking approximately 3 months or up to 5 for those who choose biweekly sessions. Outcome measures will be immediately post-intervention, as close as possible to the last session, and within 1 month of completing the intervention. Outcome measures at baseline and post interventio

结局指标
主要结局
Devereux Early Childhood Assessment-Infant/Toddler (DECA-IT)
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of intervention 3-5 months
Standardized parent rating scale assessing child initiative, attachment, and self-regulation. Internal consistency (α=.90-.94); test-retest reliability (r= .91-.99).
Parenting Interactions with Children - Checklist of Observations Linked to Outcomes (PICCOLO) 86
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of intervention 3-5 months
An observational measure of caregiver behavior including affection, responsiveness, encouragement, and teaching through caregiver-child interactions. Internal consistency (α=.75-.80); interrater reliability (r= .74-.80); construct validity (r= .62).
Family Outcomes Survey - Revised (FOS-R)
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of intervention 3-5 months
Designed to measure family outcomes and helpfulness of early intervention. Parent survey to rate the extent to which they have achieved family outcomes including knowing their rights and advocate effectively for their child, understand their child's strengths and needs, help their child develop and learn, have support systems, and access desired community services, programs, and activities.
Healthy Families Parenting Inventory (HFPI)
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of intervention 3-5 months
Designed to measure outcomes in home visitation programs. A survey of multiple dimensions of parenting: parent social support, problem solving, depression, personal care, mobilizing resources, role satisfaction, parent-child interactions, the home environment and parenting efficacy. Good internal consistency; evidence for convergent validity.
