简要总结
This project will develop and evaluate the feasibility of an integrated smart speaker and mobile/web-based application, "FamilyNet" (FN) to assist parents in implementing empirically supported behavioral parenting strategies to promote positive behavior change in their children. The FamilyNet system will help parents to create a positively framed, individualized behavioral plan for their child(ren), and then provide prompts, reminders, and tracking tools to help them effectively implement that plan. Once developed, FamilyNet will be field tested for usability and usefulness with a group of parents who have children ages 10-17 years exhibiting challenging behaviors. Establishing feasibility of this innovative parenting tool will have important implications for harnessing smart speaker and mobile/web technologies to provide parents in-situ support with parenting challenges; parents' effective implementation of empirically supported parenting strategies is likely to increase children's prosocial behaviors and reduce problematic behaviors, thus reducing their risk for long-term behavioral problems.
详细描述
This project will develop and establish feasibility of an integrated smart speaker and mobile/web application, FamilyNet, designed to help parents utilize best practices in behavioral parent training to create and implement personalized behavior plans for their children. The FamilyNet system will integrate mobile app, smart speaker technology, and website technologies to assist families in creating their behavior plan, and then will track compliance, timelines, incentives, and other details to assist parents in following through and maintaining the behavior change program that they have created. After development, the intervention program will be pilot-tested with up to 35 families of youth ages 10-17 with challenging behaviors.
Primary parents will complete measures of parenting practices and child behavior prior to using the FamilyNet system, and again after having access to the program for 4 weeks. During the intervention period, user information will be tracked. Post-intervention measures will also include primary parents' perceptions of usability and acceptability of and satisfaction with the FamilyNet system. Children will also complete satisfaction questionnaires at the post- intervention assessment. Data will be analyzed to determine the degree to which families are able to utilize the FamilyNet interface and report finding it helpful.

结局指标
主要结局
Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire 11-17 - Emotional Problems Subscale
时间窗: Baseline (T1), 4 weeks after baseline (T2)
Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire 4-17 (SDQ; Goodman, 1997) is used to measure the child's overall adjustment. The SDQ is a brief, valid, reliable, and commonly used parent-report questionnaire about child behavior. The instrument includes 25 items that assess child challenging behaviors (emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention), peer relationships, and prosocial behavior, with 5 items measuring each subscale. Respondents answer on a 3-point scale from 0 to 2 (0 = "Not true;" 2 = "Certainly true"). For the Emotional Problems Subscale, scores for the 5 items are summed together; the subscale score can range from 0 to 10. Higher scores indicate worse adjustment (worse outcome).

Program Acceptability - Parent Perception of Improvement
时间窗: At 4 weeks after baseline (T2)
Measure Description: Parents' perceptions of improvement in their child's behavior was measured with 4 items of the Program Acceptability - Parent Perception of Improvement Subscale measure at T2, 4 weeks after baseline. Parents indicate their perceptions of recent change in their child's positive behavior and their relationship with their child. Respondents answer items on a 5-point scale (e.g. 1 = Considerably worse; 5 = Greatly improved). Scores on these 4 items are averaged together; subscale scores range from 1 to 5. Higher scores indicate parent perceptions of more improvement (better outcome).
Program Acceptability - Parent Satisfaction Subscale - Parent Report
时间窗: At 4 weeks after baseline (T2)
Parent Satisfaction was measured with 10 items of the Program Acceptability - Parent Satisfaction Subscale measure at T2, 4 weeks after baseline, asking the extent to which parents found that the FamilyNet program was helpful, enjoyable, addressed important issues, helped them follow through on their behavior change plan, helped them manage their child's behavior more effectively, was the type of help they wanted, and their overall satisfaction with the program. Respondents answer items on a 7-point scale (e.g. 1 = Not at all; 7 = Very much). Scores on these 10 items are averaged together; subscale scores range from 1 to 7. Higher scores indicate better parent satisfaction.
Program Acceptability - Child Satisfaction Subscale - Child Report
时间窗: At 4 weeks after baseline (T2)
Child Satisfaction was measured with 5 items of the Program Acceptability - Child Satisfaction Subscale measure at post-treatment, asking the extent to which the child found that the FamilyNet program was helpful and enjoyable, and their overall satisfaction with the program. Respondents answer items on a 7-point scale (e.g. 1 = Not at all; 7 = Very much). Scores on these 5 items are averaged together; subscale scores range from 1 to 7. Higher scores indicate better child satisfaction.
System Usability Scale - Parent Report
时间窗: At 4 weeks after baseline (T2)
Parents' perceptions of the usability of the FamilyNet program is measured with the System Usability Scale (SUS), a commonly used 10-item scale that measures subjective perceptions of usability. Items are answered on a 5-point scale (0=Strongly disagree; 4=Strongly agree); scores on the scale are summed and multiplied by 2.5, such that they range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better usability. The SUS has been normed, and scoring produces an overall usability "grade" (Brooke, 1996; Sauro, 2011). This measure is obtained from the parents at post-test.
