Abstract Trait anxiety is a personality factor of vulnerability to anxiety and depressive disorders. Trait anxiety is associated with impairments in both attention control and processing efficiency. This study investigated the effectiveness of Working Memory Training [WMT] in improving attention control and anxiety syndrome in adolescents with high trait anxiety. The sample consisted of 52 adolescents with high trait anxiety in the age range of 15–17-year-old from Rafsanjan city, Kerman province in the south-east of Iran. Participants were assigned to one of the two groups of training with adaptive dual N-Back and a nonadaptive dual 1-Back active control group. The Age average for the WMT group was 15.83 (SD: 0.7) and 15.77 (SD: 0.75) for the control group. Body temperature was also measured as a physiological indicator of anxiety. They were requested to complete the task for 3-weeks. Findings showed that anxiety, attention control, processing efficiency of attention control, and verbal and spatial-visual Working Memory [WM] capacity were significantly improved in the training group compared to the control group. However, performance effectiveness and temperature were not significantly different between the training and control groups. In addition, in the training group, the temperature was significantly higher among the subgroups with more involvement with the training task than the group with less involvement. WMT can be used as an effective intervention for improving cognitive functions, such as attention control, and in reducing adolescents’ trait anxiety.

Abstract Parents should be able to receive parenting support for their child's behavioral issues that are both easy to access and that align with their values. This qualitative report explores the experiences of twenty-six parents with children between 2 and 4 years old who participated in a brief online attachment-based, trauma-informed parenting study. This report is the qualitative component of an eight-week RCT pilot study that evaluated the efficacy of the Aware Parenting program. The cornerstone of the Aware Parenting approach is a playful approach to discipline. Thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews after participation in a brief Aware Parenting program found three key themes emerge: (1) wanting to be the best parent they could be, (2) reframing child behavior, and (3) a brief program is enough. Overall, participants felt satisfied with a single online session and thought the playful discipline strategies were appropriate, effective, and easy to implement. Parents may benefit from the accessibility of a single-session online parenting program, particularly when opportunities to gather in a face-to-face setting are limited. Recommendations from this study include insight into recruitment, engagement, and retention of participants in future studies on brief online attachment-based parenting programs. This study also highlights the need to explore discipline strategies compatible with attachment-based parent education programs. Key Findings Participants were willing to implement new parenting strategies despite the approach being different from popular parenting practices and different from what they experienced as children. Participants felt that the playful discipline strategies they learned in the Aware Parenting program were an acceptable approach for improving behavior in young children. A single online session with social media follow-up support increases accessibility for parents who may benefit from attachment-based parenting support.

Abstract Social validity of treatment for paediatric feeding disorders can be defined as the extent to which caregivers find treatment goals and procedures acceptable, and the level of satisfaction with the outcomes of treatment. However, there are few studies which examine social validity data, or that evaluate social validity against key treatment variables. The aim of this report was to compare caregiver ratings of treatment acceptability and satisfaction against treatment variables. Social validity measures were obtained from the caregivers of all children consecutively admitted to a home-based behaviour-analytic treatment programme for paediatric feeding disorders (N = 32) in Australia. All children (M = 6 years, range 2–13 y) had severe feeding problems and most had mealtime skill deficits and autism and developmental delays or intellectual disabilities. Social validity measures included treatment acceptability and satisfaction surveys. In a retrospective analysis, social validity scores were compared against variables including participant characteristics and goals, treatment procedures, and treatment outcome. The retrospective analysis identified no significant correlations. In this sample, caregiver social validity ratings were very high, and data-based treatment outcomes for all children showed high levels of clinical significance including consumption, food variety, and feeding skill development. This report is the first to examine social validity in a data-based manner. With the exception of duration of treatment, no further relations were identified. Whilst the findings may be impacted by little variability/ceiling effects, this further communicates that the empirically-supported treatment for a paediatric feeding disorders is highly effective, and highly valued by caregivers of children. It is recommended that further data-based research continue to examine further measures and determinants of social validity.

Abstract The Psychosocial Strengths Inventory for Children and Adolescents (PSICA) was created to address the need for a valid and practical measure of children’s psychosocial strengths that is feasible for use in psychological assessment and treatment. We evaluated the PSICA’s reliability and validity in a sample of 49 families. Parents completed measures of child psychosocial competence and behavior problems. The PSICA demonstrated good internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and negative associations with child behavior problems. The PSICA is a promising measure for the assessment of child competence and outcomes of parenting interventions.

Abstract The present study aims to increase diversity in autism research and reduce the barriers to support services for children with ASD through a parent-coaching intervention delivered using telepractice. Specifically, the effects of the intervention on communication and affect for both the parent and child with autism were evaluated longitudinally across 8 time points or sessions. Using a quasi-experimental design, without a control group, findings highlight the parent-child dyadic synchrony and responsiveness in affective and communicative competence in the home via a multimodal parenting intervention. Thus, verbal, and affective communication skills are promising targets for future naturalistic intervention strategies with parents or caretakers. Moreover, findings highlight that access to interventions could be increased to diverse and under-represented populations by leveraging telepractice approaches.

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the impact of a Parenting Program, which was developed for parents of preschoolers, on children’s behavioral problems. The study sample included 38 children between the ages of 4 and 6 attending an independent kindergarten in Keçiören District of Ankara Province, and their parents (38). The study adopted an experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group. The Parenting Program, which was developed through a needs assessment, was given to 19 mothers in the experimental group once a week for 11 weeks. The experimental group was administered a follow-up test 6 weeks after the training. The study findings demonstrated that the Parenting Program effectively reduced the behavioral problems (internalization and externalization) of the children whose mothers participated in the education program (Sevgi Kindergarten) and these effects were maintained.

Abstract Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a relatively new diagnosis in the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Considering the recency of ARFID’s recognition as a formal diagnosis, much is still unknown regarding ARFID treatment. This study evaluated teleconsultation as a means to enhance a home-based, parent-delivered behavior program to a 17-year-old Latino adolescent male with ARFID, autism spectrum disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder. Treatment included parent-delivered differential reinforcement and contingency management procedures, and consultant-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy. Results indicated increases in food consumption for all target foods. Treatment outcomes and practical recommendations are discussed for the remote delivery of home-based feeding programs.
