Summary

This study tests whether an online video-feedback program can reduce parental burnout and improve parenting in mothers of young children in Chile. About 140 mothers with high burnout scores will either receive the 12-week online program or be placed on a waitlist. Researchers will measure changes in maternal sensitivity, limit-setting, and burnout levels.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Online video-feedback intervention to promote positive parenting and sensitive discipline (VIPP-SD)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer an effective online tool to reduce parental burnout and improve parent-child relationships.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial in one country, so results may not apply elsewhere. The intervention requires good internet and may not work for all families.
