Parent-child Communication and Health-risk Behavior (MP)

30 september 2015 bijgewerkt door: University of Wisconsin, Madison
Engaging in health-risk behaviors such as tobacco and alcohol use put youth at risk for health problems that may compromise their futures and are extremely costly to society. Positive parent-child communication, characterized by openness, satisfaction with the family, caring, and effective problem-solving, has been found to be protective against a youth's involvement in health-risk behaviors. To promote positive adult-youth communication, in earlier work we developed, tested, and found efficacious an intervention, Mission Possible: Parents and Kids Who Listen (MP). This study is designed to test the following hypotheses: (a) Adults and youth who participate in MP will demonstrate more positive communication when compared with adults who did not participate; (b) Youth who participate in MP will have a lower incidence of health-risk behavior when compared with youth who did not participate; and (c) Positive adult-youth communication will mediate childhood health-risk behavior in the presence of risk processes that predict participation. The experimental design is a 2-group (intervention and comparison) pre-test repeated measures design with six waves of data collection over three years and two booster sessions of the intervention. Elementary school and community centers in Madison and Chicago served as recruitment sites for parent-child dyads.

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.

Tijdsspanne
Youth Health Risk Behavior
Tijdsspanne: 3 years

Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Openness of Communication
Tijdsspanne: 3 years
The Parent Adolescent Communication Inventory (Olson, 1983) is a 20-item, 2-subscale (open or problem communication) self-report instrument with a youth version and an adult version, the difference being the target of the item - mother/father or youth. Scores are computed for adult communication, youth-mother communication, youth-father communication.
3 years
Family Satisfaction
Tijdsspanne: 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.
3 years
Problem-Solving Skill
Tijdsspanne: 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.
