Interventions
BEHAVIORAL
Brief Behavioral Parenting Program
The brief behavioral parenting program is a 6 session, group-based behavioral parent training program. The components include support-building, parenting strategy education, and actively practicing parenting strategies. It is delivered through telehealth.
Primary outcome measures
Parenting Scale - Short Form
Time frame: (1) Pre-treatment, (2) Up to 4 weeks after treatment began (Mid-Treatment), and (3) Up to 12 weeks after treatment began (Post-treatment)
The Parenting Scale Short Form measures parenting practices, including emotional over-reactivity and lax discipline use. Possible scores on the emotional over-reactivity scale range from 4 to 28, with higher scores indicating more emotional reactivity. Possible scores on the lax discipline scale range from 4 to 28, with higher scores indicating more lax discipline use.
Caregiver Strain Questionnaire - Short Form
Time frame: (1) Pre-treatment, (2) Up to 4 weeks after treatment began (Mid-Treatment), and (3) Up to 12 weeks after treatment began (Post-treatment)
The Caregiver Strain Questionnaire - Short Form measures parenting stress. Possible scores range from 7 to 35, with higher scores indicating more parenting stress.
Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory
Time frame: (1) Pre-treatment, (2) Up to 4 weeks after treatment began (Mid-Treatment), and (3) Up to 12 weeks after treatment began (Post-treatment)
The Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory measures parent-reported child behavioral concerns. Possible scores range from 36 to 252, with higher scores indicating more child behaviors concerns.
Sutter Eyberg Student Behavior Inventory
Time frame: (1) Pre-treatment and (3) Up to 12 weeks after treatment began (Post-treatment)
The Sutter Eyberg Student Behavior Inventory measures teacher-reported child behavioral concerns. Possible scores range from 36 to 266, with higher scores indicating more child behaviors concerns.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
