Summary

Caregivers and their child are being asked to participate because the investigators are interested in typical caregiver-child interactions and health behaviors. In particular, the investigators are interested in different ways that caregivers react to and understand their young children's behavior, and their health behaviors.

Conditions

  • Early Childhood Caries
  • Caregiver-Child Coercion

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Behavioral Intervention

The behavioral intervention has the parents develop an if-then plan for dealing with conflict and negativity, using strategies to downregulate their own negative emotions.

OTHER

Cognitive Intervention

The cognitive intervention has parents come up with reasons why their children do things they don't like, until they come up with benign attributions for those behaviors.

OTHER

Interpretation Bias Intervention

The Interpretation Bias intervention has parents look at "morphed" facial expressions and determine whether the face is happy or angry. Positive feedback is given for rating the faces as happy and negative feedback is given for rating the faces as angry.

OTHER

Evaluative Conditioning

The Evaluative Conditioning intervention presents parents with pictures of ambiguous child faces (conditioned stimuli) and pairs them with positive word descriptors (unconditioned stimuli; e.g., sweet; cooperative).
