First seen Feb 02, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a 10-session parenting program called Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up (ABC) can improve stress-related biological markers in children aged 2 to 3.5 years who have experienced early life adversity. About 150 caregiver-child pairs will be randomly assigned to receive the program right away or after a 4-month wait. Researchers will measure stress hormones, immune markers, and child well-being through saliva, hair, and cheek swabs, plus surveys and play tasks.
