This study was designed to examine the effectiveness of an evidence-based parenting program—Triple P Positive Parenting Program—in shelter settings for families experiencing homelessness. The intervention has not previously been evaluated in a shelter setting, where there is a critical need for evidence-based parenting programs. Using a within-group pre- and post-intervention with 3-month follow-up design, 39 mothers residing in a shelter with a child ages 2–6 years participated. Results of this preliminary study showed positive effects of Triple P Discussion Groups. There were significant improvements in mother-reported parenting practices and child behavior across time, but no change in child maltreatment risk as measured by the Brief Child Abuse Potential Inventory. Mothers rated satisfaction with the program high immediately after the group and again three weeks later. Results showed Triple P Discussion Groups are acceptable and have some positive effects for this vulnerable population in need of parenting support. We discuss implications of findings, limitations of the study (including a 33% attrition rate), and recommendations for further study.

为无家可归的母亲和她们的孩子提供庇护所的简短育儿干预的效果

本研究旨在检验一项循证育儿计划(Triple P Positive Parenting Program)在无家可归家庭收容所中的有效性。该干预措施以前没有在避难所环境中进行过评估,那里迫切需要循证养育计划。使用组内干预前和干预后 3 个月的随访设计,39 位住在庇护所的母亲与 2-6 岁的孩子一起参与。这项初步研究的结果显示了 Triple P 讨论组的积极影响。随着时间的推移,母亲报告的育儿实践和儿童行为有了显着改善,但根据简要儿童虐待潜在调查表衡量的儿童虐待风险没有变化。母亲们在小组结束后立即对计划的满意度很高,三周后又一次。结果表明,Triple P 讨论组是可以接受的,并且对需要养育支持的弱势群体有一些积极影响。我们讨论了研究结果的影响、研究的局限性(包括 33% 的流失率)以及对进一步研究的建议。
