This study is a randomized controlled trial of an asynchronous, fully web-based program for divorced and separated parents, the electronic New Beginnings Program (eNBP). This program is an adaptation of a group, in-person program for divorced parents, the New Beginnings Program (NBP), which has been shown in randomized trials to reduce a wide range of offspring problems and improve a wide range of competencies up to 15 years after participation. The 10-module, 5-h program uses evidence-based, highly interactive strategies to teach skills designed to strengthen parenting after divorce and reduce interparental conflict. Participants were 131 parents (63% mothers) and 102 adolescent offspring. Parents were randomly assigned to the eNBP or a wait-list control condition. Parents and their children completed pre- and post-tests. Analyses showed that at post-test, parents and children in the eNBP reported significantly higher parent–child relationship quality, more effective discipline, lower interparental conflict and lower child mental health problems than did those in the wait-list control condition. These are the strongest findings in the literature on the effects of web-based programs to reduce interparental conflict, strengthen positive parenting and reduce children's post-divorce mental health problems. Given that parental divorce has significant individual and societal costs, widespread implementation of this program could have significant public health implications.

异步、完全基于网络的离婚后育儿计划对减少父母间冲突、提高育儿质量和减少儿童离婚后行为问题的影响

这项研究是一项针对离婚和分居父母的异步、完全基于网络的计划，即电子新起点计划 (eNBP) 的随机对照试验。该计划是针对离婚父母的团体面对面计划的改编，即新起点计划 (NBP)，该计划已在随机试验中显示可减少广泛的后代问题并提高多达 15 岁的各种能力参与多年后。这个 10 模块、5 小时的课程使用基于证据的高度互动策略来教授旨在加强离婚后养育子女和减少父母间冲突的技能。参与者是 131 名父母（63% 为母亲）和 102 名青少年后代。父母被随机分配到 eNBP 或等待列表控制条件。父母和他们的孩子完成了前测和后测。分析表明，在后测中，与等待名单控制条件相比，eNBP 的父母和孩子报告的亲子关系质量显着提高，纪律更有效，父母间冲突更低，儿童心理健康问题也更少。这些是文献中关于基于网络的计划在减少父母间冲突、加强积极养育和减少儿童离婚后心理健康问题方面的影响的最有力的发现。鉴于父母离婚会产生巨大的个人和社会成本，该计划的广泛实施可能会对公共卫生产生重大影响。与等待名单控制条件相比，父母之间的冲突和儿童心理健康问题较低。这些是文献中关于基于网络的计划在减少父母间冲突、加强积极养育和减少儿童离婚后心理健康问题方面的影响的最有力的发现。鉴于父母离婚会产生巨大的个人和社会成本，该计划的广泛实施可能会对公共卫生产生重大影响。与等待名单控制条件相比，父母之间的冲突和儿童心理健康问题较低。这些是文献中关于基于网络的计划在减少父母间冲突、加强积极养育和减少儿童离婚后心理健康问题方面的影响的最有力的发现。鉴于父母离婚会产生巨大的个人和社会成本，该计划的广泛实施可能会对公共卫生产生重大影响。
