A Randomized Clinical Trial of a Postdeployment Parenting Intervention for Service Members and Their Families with Very Young Children

Type
Summary

Deployment may have a unique impact on very young children (i.e., birth to six years old) in military families. This study evaluated the efficacy of an eight-module home-visiting program directed at increasing postdeployment parenting functioning in military families with very young children. Results indicated that the program was effective.
