I-InTERACT Preterm Parenting
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Child Behavior Problem, Preterm, Parent-Child Relations, Parenting
In brief
Many children born very preterm experience behavior problems, and existing resources for parenting these children are lacking. A pilot trial established the effectiveness of a preterm parenting intervention, I-Interact Preterm (I2P). This study proposes a three-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing the established seven-session I2P program, a microlearning delivery mode (I2P-Micro), and an internet resource comparison group (IRC). Outcomes will be assessed at pretreatment, post-treatment (12 weeks later), and at an extended follow-up six months post-randomization. These outcomes include parenting behaviors, child behavior problems, and parent distress. It is anticipated that both I2P and I2P-Micro will result in significant improvements relative to the IRC condition, with greater utilization expected in the I2P-Micro group.
