Summary

Purpose:

This study is a feasibility trial of an existing evidence-based behavioral parent training program with parents of preschool-aged children who were born deaf or hard of hearing (DHH).

The hypotheses of this study are (a) that a randomized control trial of the Family Check Up with this population will be feasible, (b) parents will rate the intervention as acceptable, and (c) a signal of effect will be observable among intervention group parents compared to controls for the following outcome variables: child behaviors, parenting behaviors, and parenting sense of competence.

Conditions

  • Hearing Loss
  • Attention Deficit and Disruptive Behavior Disorders
  • Parenting

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Family Check Up Behavioral Parenting Training Program (BPT)

The Family Check Up is an evidence-based Behavioral Parenting Training (BPT) program focused on harnessing parents' motivation to change and skills training. Intervention parents receive the initial assessment session followed by 3 Family Check-up Sessions within one month of baseline assessment followed by a post-intervention assessment. All sessions will be delivered in the patients' usual hearing clinics and will last between 60 and 90 minutes. One month post-intervention, participants will complete post-test measures repeating baseline measures, plus acceptability ratings of intervention.

BEHAVIORAL

Behavioral Placebo

The Behavioral Placebo sessions will consist of presentations of information about healthy lifestyles. Parents in the control group will receive an initial assessment session followed by three behavioral placebo sessions followed by a post-placebo-intervention assessment. All sessions will be delivered in the patients' usual hearing clinics and will last between 60 and 90 minutes. One month post-intervention, participants will complete post-test measures repeating baseline measures, plus acceptability ratings of intervention.
