入选标准
- •Children between the ages of 7-
- •Youth currently resides in Miami-Dade County.
- •Children and their parents must be able to speak and understand English and/or Spanish sufficiently well to complete study procedures (e.g., provide their informed consent/assent, complete assessment measures and/or program materials).
- •At least one parent or caregiver with whom the child is living with that can accompany the child and participate in all visits (assessment and treatment).
- •Positive endorsement of elevated emotional concerns in one of a limited range of emotional disorder domains (i.e., anxiety, depression, trauma, or obsessive-compulsive symptoms, etc.) during full DIAMOND-Kid semi-structured interview, and/or elevated anxiety or depression symptoms (T-Score > or = 65 for youth 8-17 years old; Raw score > or = 12 for children under 8 years old) on the Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale - Short Form (RCADS-SF; Child or Parent Report).
- •Youth with other types of comorbid conditions (e.g., tic/Tourette's disorder, eating disorders, or disruptive behavior disorders) will not be excluded, providing a clinical area of concern is regarding one of the emotional disorder domains specified and treatment within this protocol is deemed most appropriate.
- •Youth and parent participation in at least one in-person session if the treatment is predominantly delivered virtually.
排除标准
- •Prior receipt of at least 8 sessions of the UP-C/A program at the Child and Adolescent Mood and Anxiety Treatment Program (CAMAT).
- •Psychiatric hospitalization in the previous 6 months (i.e., due to Baker Act, psychotic symptoms, significant suicidal ideation, danger to self or others, etc.).
- •Another significant problem area that takes priority for services (e.g., eating disorder, substance-use disorder, primary externalizing concerns, psychotic symptoms, etc.), as identified by family report or via DIAMOND-Kid interview.
- •Inability for family to wait for the next group treatment cohort to start, family declining therapist assignment following intake, and/or family no-showing to 3 or more scheduled sessions at CAMAT (inclusive of intake assessment).
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale - Parent Revised Short Version (RCADS-P-S)
时间窗: Session 1 (approximately week 1), session 8 (approximately week 8), and at the natural termination session (approximately 24 weeks).
The Change in Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale - Parent Revised Short Version (RCADS-P-25) is 25-item parent-reported scale measuring symptoms of anxiety and depression in youth. Items are rated on a 4-point scale from 1 (Never) to 4 (always) with total composite score ranging from 0 to 75. A score of 70 or higher indicates high severity.
Change in Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale - Child Revised Short Version (RCADS-C-S)
时间窗: Session 1 (approximately week 1), session 8 (approximately week 8), and at the natural termination session (approximately 24 weeks).
The Change in Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale - Child Revised Short Version (RCADS-25) is 25-item self-reported scale measuring symptoms of anxiety and depression in youth. Items are rated on a 4-point scale from 1 (Never) to 4 (always) with total composite scores ranging from 0 to 75. A score of 70 or higher indicates high severity.
Change in Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire - Parent Version (SDQ-P)
时间窗: Session 1 (approximately week 1), session 8 (approximately week 8), and at the natural termination session (approximately 24 weeks).
The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a 25-item parent-reported measure assessing five domains in youth: emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, peer relationship problems, and pro-social behaviors. All items are rated on a 3-point scale from 0 (not true) to 2 (Certainly true). A score can be generated for each scale and all except the prosocial subscale are added together to generate a total composite difficulties score (based on 20 items). Higher total scores are indicative of more problems for all subscales, except for the prosocial scale, where higher scores correspond to fewer difficulties in prosocial behavior.
Change in Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire - Child Version (SDQ-C)
时间窗: Session 1 (approximately week 1), session 8 (approximately week 8), and at the natural termination session (approximately 24 weeks).
The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a 25-item self-reported measure assessing five domains in youth: emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, peer relationship problems, and pro-social behaviors. All items are rated on a 3-point scale from 0 (not true) to 2 (Certainly true). A score can be generated for each scale and all except the prosocial subscale are added together to generate a total composite difficulties score (based on 20 items). Higher total composite scores are indicative of more problems for all subscales, except for the prosocial scale, where higher scores correspond to fewer difficulties in prosocial behavior.
Change in Parental Stress Scale (PSS) as measured by Likert Scale
时间窗: Session 1 (approximately week 1), session 8 (approximately week 8), and at the natural termination session (approximately 24 weeks).
The Parental Stress Scale (PSS) is an 18-item measure assessing parents' feelings about their parenting role, exploring both positive (e.g., emotional benefits, personal development) and negative (e.g., demands on resources, feelings of stress) aspects on parenthood. All items are rated on 5-point Likert scale from 1 (Strongly disagree) to 5 (Strongly agree). Items are summed with higher scores indicating higher levels of parental stress.
