简要总结
Gaining Real-life Skills Over the Web (GROW) is an online parenting-skills intervention for caregivers of children aged 0-4 who sustained traumatic brain injuries. GROW is designed to promote family and child coping and adjustment for caregivers.
详细描述
This project develops and evaluates an online learning environment of web-based intervention modules designed to promote family and child coping and adjustment (GROW: Gaining Real-life Skills Over the Web) based on a comprehensive needs assessment of children aged 0 to 14 years old, who experienced a traumatic brain injury (TBI) between the ages of 0 to 4 years, and their families. The incidence of TBI peaks between the ages 0 to 4 years, yet there are no evidenced-based interventions to facilitate neurocognitive development and socio-emotional functioning of children injured during this critical development period. To address the unmet need of caregivers of infants and toddlers with TBI, the project uses a three-phase development process to generate proof of concept and initial proof of product. Phase 1 involves a comprehensive needs assessment that includes quantitative assessment of family and child needs, qualitative assessment through focus groups and interviews of families, feedback from family and professional advisory boards, and consultation with professionals implementing interventions with similar populations (e.g., families of children with very low birth weight). During Phase 2, the project develops the content and manual for the intervention modules, designs the online learning environment, and conducts intensive, iterative usability testing. Phase 3 involves a pilot of the GROW program with 20 families to evaluate its usability, acceptability, and qualitative and quantitative impact on stakeholder identified outcomes.

- •Overnight hospitalization for traumatic brain injury
- •Mechanism of injury: Non-penetrating traumatic brain injury; abusive head trauma (AHT) will be included
- •Language: English must be the primary spoken language in the home
排除标准
- •Does not reside with the caregiver at least half-time
- •The caregiving situation is not stable (i.e., there must be no scheduled custody hearings)
- •English is not the primary language spoken in the home
- •Families of children who are non-responsive or in a persistent vegetative state will also be excluded
- •Caregivers with a psychiatric hospitalization in the past year will be ineligible to participate
- •If AHT is the suspected injury mechanism, the child must not reside with the suspected abuser, must have been in the current living situation for at least 6 months, and must be anticipated to remain in this living situation for the next 6 months. The study team will only recruit non-abusing caregivers (including foster parents) to participate.
研究组 & 干预措施
GROW Intervention
Every participant received the GROW Intervention, chose not to participate in the GROW intervention, or dropped out before completing the GROW Intervention.
干预措施: Positive Parenting Intervention (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression(CES-D) Scale Change
时间窗: Pre-Intervention and Immediately Post-Intervention
Measuring caregiver psychological distress, the CES-D consists of 20 items that are rated on a 4-point likert scale (from 1: rarely or none of the time to 4: most or all of the time). Scores range from zero to sixty. Higher scores indicated a higher frequency of depressive symptoms during the last week.
Parenting Stress Index (PSI) Change
时间窗: Pre-Intervention and Immediately Post-Intervention
The study team used the 36 item short form PSI to measure caregiver stress. Using a 4-point likert scale, the stress scores range from 18 to 90, with lower scores indicating lower levels of parental stress.
Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Change
时间窗: Pre-Intervention and Immediately Post-Intervention
The study team used only the Sleep, Stress, and Anxiety Measures which are rated on a 5-point likert scale. Each measure has a range in score from 7 to 35 with higher scores indicating greater severity.
Family Burden of Injury Interview (FBII) Change
时间窗: Pre-Intervention and Immediately Post-Intervention
The FBII measures family burden. Open-ended answers are coded Yes/No and are given a stress rating of 0 (not at all)-5(extremely stressful). Caregiver responses are averaged to provide an index of injury-related family burden.
GROW Satisfaction Survey
时间窗: Immediately Post-Intervention
Satisfaction with intervention measured in both 5-point likert scale ratings (with higher values showing greater satisfaction) and open-ended feedback about participant experience in the program.
Background & Family Information Form
时间窗: Pre-Intervention
Demographics rehabilitation services
Caregiver-Child Observation Change
时间窗: Pre-Intervention and Immediately Post-Intervention
Using the Parent/Child Toy Play Ratings in the Play and Learning Strategies (PALS) manual, 6 domains (warmth, contingent responsiveness, demonstration/physical teaching, verbal stimulation/scaffolds, restrictions, and negativity/intrusiveness) are rated on scales of 1 to 5 with 1 being the worst rating and 5 being the best.
MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories (MB-CDI) Change
时间窗: Pre-Intervention and Immediately Post-Intervention
Using the short form MB-CDIs to measure child language abilities, the scoring scale is a minimum of 0- maximum of 310 with greater scores showing better language abilities.
