Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Group 1	Non-Violent Resistance parental training	Group : Non-Violent Resistance parental training (NVR)

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Parenting Stress Index/Short Form(PSI-SF)	4 months from baseline	Parenting Stress Index/Short Form(PSI-SF) : PSI-SF has 36 items based on a five-point Likert scale where each value corresponds to a specific statement (1 = completely disagree; 5 = completely agree). The subscale scores range from 12 to 60, and the Total Stress score ranges from 36 to 180. The higher the score, the greater the level of parental stress

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL)	4 months from baseline	Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL) : CBCL has 115-item and uses T-scores which allows a wide-ranging evaluation of the child's behavioural profile.; Raw scores are calculated and used to generate T-scores for eight clinical subscales, two composite scales, one total scale, and four competence scales.; T-scores ≥70 are in the clinical range for the clinical subscales, T-scores ≥64 are in the clinical range for the composite scales and total scale, and T-scores ≤30 are in the clinical range for the competence scales. Emotional dysregulation was defined as an aggregate T-score of ≥210 on the Attention Problems, Aggressive Behavior, and Anxious/Depressed scales
Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)	4 months from baseline	Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) : The SDQ consists of 5 subscales, each containing 5 items. The scales measure emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity-inattention, peer relationship problems, and prosocial behaviours.; Each psychological attribute is scored on a 0-10 scale. A score of 0 is the best outcome concerning the emotional, conduct, hyperactivity, and peer relationship fields (note that these four attributes add up to a total difficulties/overall stress score scored on a 0-40 scale). This scoring reverses for pro-social/score for kind and helpful behaviour, where a score of 10 shows the least amount of difficulty
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)	4 months from baseline	Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) : HADS is a 14-item measure designed to assess anxiety and depression symptoms in adults. Items are rated on a 4-point severity scale. The HADS produces a scale for anxiety (HADS-A) and for depression (HADS-D). To screen for parental anxiety and depressive symptoms, the following interpretation can be proposed for each of the scores: scores of 7 or less are considered no symptomatology; scores between 8 and 10 are considered doubtful symptomatology; scores of 11 and more are considered definite symptomatology."
