Evaluation of a Mindfulness-Based Early-Childhood Behavioral Parenting Program that Promotes Parent and Child Well-Being in High-Risk Contexts
Objectives
Two studies were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a brief (6-week) mindfulness-based behavioral parenting program offered in community settings to parents of preschool-age children living in low-income or high-adversity contexts.
Method
Study 1 was a quasi-experimental, waitlist control study conducted with 53 parents whose children were enrolled in Head-Start or similar early childhood program. Study 2 evaluated the program when it was delivered synchronously online with 28 parents living in transitional housing or who were unhoused and whose children attended an early learning program. Assessments included parent-reported mindfulness problems, mental health symptoms, parenting and child social competence, and internalizing and externalizing problems. Study 1 also included observational ratings of parenting behaviors.
Results
Study 1 treatment group (n = 27) showed significant improvements or positive trends in mindfulness, parental warmth, scaffolding, acceptance, anxiety symptoms, parent-reported rejection, and child internalizing and externalizing problems when compared to waitlist participants (n = 26). Study 2 participants (n = 28) reported increases in consistent limit setting, child social competence, decreases in internalizing, and a tendency toward reduced parental anxiety symptoms from pretest to post-test, and treatment effects were maintained at follow-up. Parents’ satisfaction with the program was high, and attendance improved when the program was delivered online.
Conclusions
Preliminary results suggest that this brief mindfulness-based behavioral parenting program may improve parental anxiety and parenting behaviors, as well as children’s adjustment. The program is acceptable to parents who participated and feasibly implemented both in person and online in community settings with parents living in low-income contexts.
期刊介绍：
Mindfulness seeks to advance research, clinical practice, and theory on mindfulness. It is interested in manuscripts from diverse viewpoints, including psychology, psychiatry, medicine, neurobiology, psychoneuroendocrinology, cognitive, behavioral, cultural, philosophy, spirituality, and wisdom traditions. Mindfulness encourages research submissions on the reliability and validity of assessment of mindfulness; clinical uses of mindfulness in psychological distress, psychiatric disorders, and medical conditions; alleviation of personal and societal suffering; the nature and foundations of mindfulness; mechanisms of action; and the use of mindfulness across cultures. The Journal also seeks to promote the use of mindfulness by publishing scholarly papers on the training of clinicians, institutional staff, teachers, parents, and industry personnel in mindful provision of services. Examples of topics include: Mindfulness-based psycho-educational interventions for children with learning, emotional, and behavioral disorders Treating depression and clinical symptoms in patients with chronic heart failure Yoga and mindfulness Cognitive-behavioral mindfulness group therapy interventions Mindfulnessness and emotional regulation difficulties in children Loving-kindness meditation to increase social connectedness Training for parents and children with ADHD Recovery from substance abuse Changing parents’ mindfulness Child management skills Treating childhood anxiety and depression
