NCT ID NCT07687524
First seen Jul 07, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a home-based video-feedback program can help parents become more sensitive and responsive to their young children, potentially improving kids' emotional, behavioral, and cognitive development. Families with children aged 2 to 5.5 years from median-income and below households in Singapore are randomly assigned to the video program, a digital parenting course, or general developmental information. Researchers measure changes in parenting sensitivity and child behavior over time.
