Understanding the interplay among parental involvement, parental self-regulation, and child adjustment
High levels of parental involvement in children's learning and education bring considerable benefits to children and act as a protective factor for difficulties in children's social, emotional, and behavioral adjustment. Parental self-regulation and efficacy have been found to have positive associations with both their contributions to the home-school partnership and to children's wellbeing. However, most previous studies examining these relation…

The role of parenting self-efficacy on teacher-child relationships and parent-teacher communication
High-quality teacher-child relationships and parent-teacher communications have substantial benefits to children's well-being and school functioning. However, more research is needed to understand how parenting self-efficacy influences these relationships. This cross-sequential study investigated the direct associations of parenting self-efficacy with the teacher-child relationship and parent-teacher communication, as well as potential mediation …
Place-based approach to support children’s development towards sustainable development goals
In 2015, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were announced with the agreement of 190 world leaders aiming for ending extreme poverty, fighting inequality and injustice by 2030. Among different approaches, investments in future generations’ capacities to thrive are key to attaining these goals. Promoting children’s thriving, however, is not a simple matter because child development is not a single state and is not determined by a single forc…
Connecting families, schools, and communities
The achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) demands an increased focus on investing in young children as a pivotal solution. Many of the SDGs' targeted solutions directly or indirectly address facets of children's living conditions, aiming to foster their social and emotional well‐being. However, the current approach, while successful in delivering some impacts, are often disjointed. In this article, we contend that…

Experiences of Aboriginal parents in the context of junior rugby league
The proportion of Aboriginal peoples in a variety of Australian sports are at a much higher levels than their proportion of the overall population in Australia. Given the relative absence of Aboriginal parents in discussions of parenting, and the strong involvement of Aboriginal peoples in sport, the experiences of Aboriginal parents within Junior Rugby League (JRL) were explored in this study. The aim was to consider the key factors impacting th…
Predictors of champion behaviors in an evidence‐based parenting program
The importance of champions in the implementation of evidence‐based public health programs has been well established. Champions perform a range of behaviors which can have significant influence on the adoption and sustainability of interventions. This study investigates champion behaviors in parenting practitioners with the aim to provide insight into the range and extent that practitioners engage in champion behaviors and to examine predictors o…

Online‐delivered parenting intervention for young children with disruptive behavior problems
BACKGROUND: This study evaluated whether an evidence-based parenting intervention, when delivered online, could effectively address disruptive behavior problems in young children and yield outcomes comparable to in-person delivery of the same intervention. METHODS: Families (n = 334) of children (3-7 years; 63% White, 22% African American, 15% other races; 63% male) with disruptive behavior problems were randomized to online-delivered interventio…
Policies are Needed to Increase the Reach and Impact of Evidence-Based Parenting Supports
Innovation, research integrity, and change
Psychology and the social sciences have an important role to play in developing innovative solutions to pressing global mental health and social problems. Programs developed by psychologists and other social scientists have immense potential to alleviate suffering and to promote healthy human development across the lifespan. In order to realise this potential program developers must manage the research and development challenges involved in testi…
Enhancing Outcomes of Low-Intensity Parenting Groups Through Sufficient Exemplar Training
Low-intensity parenting groups, such as the Triple P-Positive Parenting Program Discussion Groups, appear to be a cost-effective intervention for child conduct problems. Several studies evaluating a Triple P Discussion Group on disobedience found promising results for improving child and parent outcomes. However, a sufficient exemplar training approach that incorporates generalization promotion strategies may assist parents to more flexibly apply…
Predicting Attendance of a Preventive Parenting Intervention for Very Preterm Infants
Preventive parenting interventions can experience challenges in maximizing dosage, or the amount of intervention received by parents. This study examined the associations of baseline mother, father, and very preterm infant (VPT; n = 160) and fathers ( n = 115) completed questionnaires prior to the randomization of family units ( n = 160) to receive the intervention. Satisfactory session attendance (seven or eight sessions of eight in total) was a…
Protecting Children in Low- and Middle-Income Countries from Abuse and Neglect
Reducing Child Maltreatment by Making Parenting Programs Available to All Parents
Preventing the maltreatment of children is a major public health challenge. Using the Triple P-Positive Parenting program as an example, this article makes the case that strengthening parenting and family relationships at a population level is a potentially powerful means of taking on this challenge. We focus on the value of making parenting programs available to all parents in the community. We conclude by examining the key ingredients required …

Measuring Parenting Practices and Family Functioning with Brief and Simple Instruments
Using epidemiological survey data to examine factors influencing participation in parent-training programmes
Evidence-based parent-training programmes aim to reduce child behaviour problems; however, the effects of these programmes are often limited by poor participation rates. This study proposes a model of parent, child and family factors related to parental participation in parenting interventions. A computer-assisted telephone interview was used to survey parents of 4- to 7-year-old children ( N = 2999). Logistic regression analyses showed that seve…
Child Adjustment and Parent Efficacy Scale
This study examined the psychometric characteristics of the Child Adjustment and Parent Efficacy Scale (CAPES). The CAPES was designed as a brief outcome measure in the evaluation of both public health and individual or group parenting interventions. The scale consists of a 30‐item intensity scale with two subscales measuring children's behaviour problems and emotional maladjustment and a 20‐item self‐efficacy scale that measures parent's self‐ef…

Issues in Professional Training to Implement Evidence‐based Parenting Programs
Indigenous children have elevated risk for poor health, behavioural, emotional, and social outcomes. Significant evidence exists that parenting programs can reduce family risk factors and improve outcomes for children and families; however, mainstream programs have had slower uptake in Indigenous communities than other communities. Culturally sensitive delivery of evidence‐based programs can enhance engagement of parents, yet the development of a…

Enhancing generalization and maintenance effects in systematic parent training
This paper critically reviews research on the use of self-management procedures to enhance generalization and maintenance effects in behavioural parent training. It is argued that while many training programs for parents implicitly expect parents to engage in self-controlling behaviors, specific training in these skills is rarely provided. Research evidence relating to teaching parents goal selection, self-monitoring, self-determination of reward…
