Summary

This study looks at whether adding three extra stress management sessions for parents can improve outcomes for families of young children with disruptive behavior disorders. About 120 families will either get the standard school readiness parenting program or that program plus the extra sessions. Researchers will measure parent stress, parent-child interactions, and child behavior over 12 months.

Active substance
cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) based parent training sessions
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a way to reduce parent stress and improve parent-child interactions for families of children with disruptive behavior disorders.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with 120 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The added stress management sessions may not provide significant benefits over the existing program alone.
