Eksperimentel: ReFrame-R træning
ReFrame-R består af fire ugentlige 90-minutters gruppesessioner (i alt 6 timer), suppleret med korte ugentlige individuelle konsultationer for at afhjælpe barrierer og styrke hjemmepraksis.
Tilpasset fra en eksisterende MI-protokol for lægfolk (Kline et al., 2022), er programmet forankret i Family Systems Theory for at adressere over-/underfunktionerende dynamikker i ældre forælder-voksenbarn-relationer, mens det også lægger vægt på empatisk lytning og autonomistøttende kommunikation.
En MI-færdighedsbog vil blive uddelt for at støtte og registrere hjemmepraksis.
|
ReFrame-R-programmet er tilpasset fra en etableret Motivational Interviewing (MI)-protokol for lægfolk (Kline et al., 2022).
Forankret i Family Systems Theory adresserer læreplanen specifikt overfunktionerings- og underfunktioneringsdynamikker, som ofte findes i ældre forælder-voksenbarn-dyader, og den kulturelt specifikke kontekst i Hong Kong. I modsætning til generelle kommunikationsworkshops lægger dette program vægt på rollebegrænsninger inden for forælder-voksenbarn-forholdet. |
|
Ingen indgriben: Kontrolgruppe
Deltagerne i kontrolgruppen vil ikke modtage aktiv træning i undersøgelsesperioden.
De vil få den samme MI-færdighedsbog til reference og selvstyret praksis.

Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Perceived communication competence
Tidsramme: Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
Participants' self-perceived communication competence is assessed using an 11-item scale adapted from the Family Communication Scale (FCS).
The scale consists of 10 items adapted from the original FCS to measure perceived ability to engage in positive communication with adult children, plus an additional item regarding overall communicagtion competence.
Each item is rated on a 5-point scale (1-5), with a total score ranging from 11 to 55. Higher scores indicate a higher level of perceived communication competence.
|
Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
|
Meaning in life
Tidsramme: Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
The 10-item Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ; Steger et al., 2006) is used.
It consists of two subscales: presence of meaning (5 items) and search of meaning (5 items).
Each subscale is rated on a 7-point scale, with summed scores are calculated (ranged 5-35 for each).
Higher scores indicate stronger sense of purpose and motivation to find meaning, respectively.

|
Self-efficacy
Tidsramme: Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
Participants' self-efficacy will be assessed using the 6-item General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE-6; Romppel et al., 2013).
It is typically rated on a 4-point scale from 1 to 4. Total scores range from 6 to 24, with higher scores reflecting greater perceived self-efficacy.
|
Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
|
Well-being
Tidsramme: Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
The 5-item WHO Well-Being Index will be adopted for measuring participants' subjective well-being (Bech, 1998; Kong et al., 2016), rated on a 7-point scale.
The WHO-5 score ranges from 0 to 25, zero representing worst possible mental well-being and 25 representing best possible mental well-being.
|
Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
|
Role boundaries
Tidsramme: Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
We used a 5-item scale adapted from the Control subscale of the Parent-Adult Child Relationship Questionnaire's Relationship with Father component (PACQF; Peisah et al., 1999).
While the original scale assess children's perceptions of parental conrtol, this adapted version is a self-report measure for parent to assess their attempt to maintain power, influence, or dominance over their adult children.
Each item is rated on a 5-point scale, with a total score ranging 5-25.
Higher scores indicater higher levels of parent control, reflecting weaker awareness of role boundaries in parent-adult children relationship.
|
Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
|
Family functioning
Tidsramme: Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
The 5-item Family Adaption, Partnership, Growth, Affection, Resolve questionnaire (Family APGAR; Chan et al., 1988; Smilkstein, 1978) is used.
This scale assesses participants' satisfaction with five aspects of family function.
Each item is rated on a 3-point scale (0-2), with a total score ranged from 0 to 10. Higher scores indicate better family functioning.
|
Both groups: Baseline, Week 4 (end of training), Week 6 (2 weeks follow-up); Intervention group only: 4 months post-training
|
|
Training appropriateness
Tidsramme: Week 6 (2 week follow-up)
|
We used the 4-item Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM) from Weiner et al (2017) to access training appropriateness.
All items are rated on a 5-point scale (1-5), with an average score being calculated.
Higher scores indicate greater perceived appropriateness of training.
|
Week 6 (2 week follow-up)
|
|
Training acceptability
Tidsramme: Week 6 (2 week follow-up)
|
The 4-item Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) from Weiner et al (2017) is adopted to access training appropriateness.
All items are rated on a 5-point scale (1-5), with an average score being calculated.
Higher scores indicate greater perceived acceptability of training.
|
Week 6 (2 week follow-up)
|
|
Training feasibility
Tidsramme: Week 4 (end of training)
|
This study used the 4-item Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM) from Weiner et al (2017) to access training feasibility.
All items are rated on a 5-point scale (1-5), with an average score being calculated.
Higher scores indicate greater perceived feasibility of training.
