Communication skills training Mission Possible: Parents & Kids Who Listen
|
MP is a 12-hour, 6-session, manualized skills training program with 2 boosters.
Behavioral strategies teach adults and youth to communicate with one another emphasizing youth's need for flexible family boundaries, emotional closeness, and adults as resources.
Dyads attend together.
Sessions begin with relaxation exercises, review of the prior week's lessons and homework, and examination of success and failure in trying communication techniques.
New concepts are introduced using didactic videotaped presentations.
Lively, interactive, developmentally appropriate group exercises follow reflective of ethnic diversity that are reinforced with handouts and encouragement to try them at home.
Week-by-week content covers: Developmental Changes; Self-Esteem; Communicating What You Want; Listening to What the Other Wants; Solving Conflicts; and Letting Go.
The booster sessions are 2 hours in length and update developmental concepts; 5 basic listening skills; and 6 conflict resolution steps.

Family Satisfaction
Tidsramme: 3 years
|
The Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale III is a 20-item, self-report instrument (Olson, 1994) to measure family satisfaction.
Participants answer the items twice, first to assess current and then to assess ideal family system conditions.
The difference between ideal and perceived conditions yields a family satisfaction score.

Problem-Solving Skill
Tidsramme: 3 years
|
50% of the dyads were randomly selected for assessment of problem solving ability.
The procedure was to (a) identify a problem for discussion from the Issues Checklist (IC), (b) videotape the dyad attempting to solve the problem identified, and (c) code the videotaped interaction using the Iowa Family Interaction Rating Scales (IFIRS).
The IFIRS is a macro-level observational coding system that was initially developed in 1989 and has undergone 5 revisions.
Scales used to assess three aspects of family interaction were: (a) individual behavioral characteristics or each person's generalized interaction consisting of 8 items, e.g., use of humor, mood, whining and complaining; (b) dyadic behavioral characteristics or the nature of behavior exchanged from one family member to another consisting of 22 items, e.g., hostility, warmth/support; and (c) the family problem-solving process consisting of 10 items, e.g., solution quality, family enjoyment.
