Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the acceptability and effects of internet-based approaches for helping parents learn early intervention strategies (e.g., methods or tips for improving a child's behavior and development). As part of this study, families will be randomly(selected by chance like the flip of a coin) assigned to one of two different formats of an interactive telehealth program called Mirror Me. One format families complete on their own, the other involves the option to meet with a parent coach over the internet for feedback. The goal of the study is to understand how parents/caregivers and children benefit from using online programs, and to identify barriers (blocks) and facilitators (helpers) to this kind of service delivery model.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Mirror Me

Mirror Me is a telehealth parent training intervention that teaches parents to promote their child's social imitation during play and daily routines. It uses content from Reciprocal Imitation Training (RIT), an evidence-based NDBI that teaches social imitation within affect-laden playful interactions. Mirror Me presents intervention content in four interactive modules. Program development was guided by the technology acceptance model, media richness theory, and principles of instructional design.

BEHAVIORAL

Remote Coaching

Trained therapists will provide feedback to parents as they use the RIT techniques with their child at home. All sessions will follow a similar format including a discussion of accomplishments and challenges, parent practice with feedback, problem solving, and planning for the next week
