First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether an online parenting program called Incredible Years helps Filipino parents in California improve their parenting skills and reduce their children's behavior problems. About 360 families took part, with half receiving the program and half getting standard handouts. Researchers measured changes in parenting practices and child behavior at 3 and 6 months.
