Summary

The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to learn about effects and experiences of an internet-based parenting program for parents of children and adolescents with behavioral problems (e.g., aggressive or defiant behavior).

The main questions the study aims to answer are:

* What are the preliminary effects of the internet-based parenting program?
* What is the level of parents' engagement in the parenting program?
* How do parents perceive the program?

Families will be randomized to a version of an internet-based parenting program with support provided from family guides (psychologists) through chat messages in the program, or to the same internet-based parenting program with additional phone/digital support-meetings. Parents will answer quantitative measurements questions before, during, and after treatment. Parents will also be asked to participate in a qualitative interview after the program. Both within and between group comparisons will be conducted to see if there are trends within each arm and differences between the two types of support.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Family Check-up and Cognitive behavior therapy online: a Swedish internet-based parenting program

The internet-based parenting support program is based on social learning theory. A foundation is the Family Check-up program (FCU), which includes approaches from motivational interviewing (MI). The parenting support is also based on similar CBT-parenting strategies as in other evaluated face-to-face CBT-parenting support programs (e.g., Comet) as well as internet-based programs (e.g., iComet; ParentWeb).

BEHAVIORAL

Family Check-up and Cognitive behavior therapy online: a Swedish internet-based parenting program with additional parental support

The internet-based parenting program includes the same contents and chat-function as in the other condition. The focus for the digital/phone meetings is to explore potential questions, problem-solve around potential challenges, and motivate parents to practice strategies and complete modules.
