Few studies have examined whether parenting prevention programs might mitigate risk for suicidality in parents, yet parent suicidality is a strong risk factor for offspring suicidality.
A randomized controlled trial of the after deployment, adaptive parenting tools (ADAPT) program for deployed National Guard and Reserve (NG/R) families with a school-aged child was conducted.
Background: Young children in military families with a member who has a life changing injury can experience emotional difficulties and behavior changes. Objective: This study evaluated a Sesame Workshop multimedia kit called: Talk, Listen, Connect: Changes (TLC-II(C); 2008).
An evaluation of a Sesame Workshop multimedia kit called: Talk, Listen, Connect: Changes (TLC-II©) was conducted.
Importance: Disruptive behavior is common in children with autism spectrum disorder. Behavioral interventions are used to treat disruptive behavior but have not been evaluated in large-scale randomized trials.
Children with autism spectrum disorder often show disruptive and noncompliance behaviors and many parents may need support as they deal with these behaviors.
With the large number of National Guard members and reservists being deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, public educators find themselves endeavoring to support the emotional and academic needs of military children and their families.
Deployment of a parent can have negative emotional, academic, and behavioral consequences for children in military families. Recommendations for schools to support military families during deployment were provided.
