NCT ID NCT07676240
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a coaching program called FIND-F, where home visitors film fathers playing with their young children (ages 12-36 months) and then review the videos to highlight positive interactions. The goal is to see if this approach improves fathers' supportive parenting and reduces parenting stress. Two hundred father-child pairs are randomly assigned to either the program or a waitlist, with follow-up assessments six months later.
