Low levels of attendance and implementation of strategies in behavioral parent-training programs may limit their impact. The purpose of this study was to examine attendance and implementation across a behavioral parent-training program delivered in English and Español. Participants included parents (n = 739) of young children who attended a behavioral parent-training program. The mean number of sessions attended for the entire sample was 4.46 (SD = 1.66, range = 1-6) of six sessions, and the mean number of strategies implemented was 17.66 (SD = 11.43, range = 0-35) of a possible 35. There were no significant differences across the number of sessions attended among the participants in the English (M = 4.45) and Español versions (M = 4.48) of the course, t(737) = -0.20, p = .85. There also were no significant differences between the English (M = 17.97) and Español (M = 16.87) versions for the number of Tip Trackers completed, t(737) = 1.18, p = .24. Only child diagnosis predicted parent attendance in the English group. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Exploring parent-child relationships in a Swedish child and adolescent psychiatry - cohort of adolescents with internet gaming disorder.
BMC Psychol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Department of Clinical Sciences, Lund University, Lund, Sweden.
Background: While recent studies suggest a high prevalence of Internet gaming disorder (IGD) in child and adolescent psychiatry (CAP) clinics, little is known about the factors contributing to problematic gaming among these patients. Given the well-established role of parenting and parent-child relationships in the development of problem behaviors, this study aimed to explore parent-child relationships within a Swedish cohort of CAP patients with IGD.
Methods: A total of 72 adolescents from CAP clinics in Skane, Sweden, diagnosed with IGD based on DSM-V criteria (73% boys), aged 13 to 18 years were included in the study.
Topical review: sleep regulation as a novel target for treating preschool-aged children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms.

Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC, United States.
Objective: Elevated attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms in preschoolers are a risk factor for poorer psychiatric health, cognitive deficits, and social and academic impairment across the lifespan. The first-line treatment for these preschoolers, behavioral parent training (BPT), reduces children's disruptive behaviors and parenting stress, yet its impact on core ADHD symptoms is inconsistent. Early interventions targeting biological mechanisms linked to core ADHD pathophysiology are critically needed.

Article Synopsis
- Behavioural Parent Training (BPT) is an effective intervention for ADHD in children, and this study compares face-to-face training with an online version to see which format is more effective for parents.
- The study involved 90 parents, with many preferring online training; however, a significant dropout rate left only 60 parents for the online analysis.
- Results showed that face-to-face participants were more likely to implement certain parenting strategies, specifically the reward system, while no major differences were found in how parental ADHD symptoms influenced training format choice.
Web-Based Parent Training With Telephone Coaching Aimed at Treating Child Disruptive Behaviors in a Clinical Setting During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Single-Group Study With 2-Year Follow-Up.
JMIR Pediatr Parent
December 2024
Research Centre for Child Psychiatry, University of Turku, Turku, Finland.
Background: There is a lack of studies examining the long-term outcomes of web-based parent training programs implemented in clinical settings during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Objective: The aim is to study 2-year outcomes of families with 3- to 8-year-old children referred from family counseling centers to the Finnish Strongest Families Smart Website (SFSW), which provides digital parent training with telephone coaching aimed at treating child disruptive behaviors.
Methods: Counseling centers in Helsinki identified fifty 3- to 8-year-old children with high levels of disruptive behavioral problems.
Article Synopsis
- Effective evidence-based interventions (EBIs) are crucial for helping children with mental health issues, but many don't get used in real-world settings, leaving families without proper care.
- A study called Supportive Parents-Coping Kids (SPARCK) will focus on both testing and implementing this parent training intervention across 24 municipalities in Norway, using a mixed methods approach to assess its effectiveness.
- By understanding what helps or hinders successful implementation, the study aims to improve care delivery, bridging the gap between research findings and practical application in clinical scenarios.
