Behavioral Parent Training for Families With Deaf and Hard of Hearing Preschoolers

Running, not enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Deafness, Hearing Loss, Parenting, Child Behavior

In brief

Children who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) rarely receive behavioral interventions to prevent the long-term costly outcomes of behavior problems. This project will systematically adapt an evidence-based parent training intervention to increase its acceptability and relevance for parents of young DHH children. Effectiveness of the adapted intervention and its implementation with parents of young DHH children followed in "real world" hearing healthcare clinics will be assessed.
