Scientific title | |
Study objectives | We hypothesise that parents receiving treatment booklets addressing sleep and bedtime behaviours (Trial 1) or discipline problems (Trial 2) and telephone support, along with usual care by their family physician, will demonstrate greater reductions in sleep or discipline problems, improved parenting practices, and greater reductions in child behaviour problems in general following the intervention compared to parents receiving usual medical care. |
Ethics approval(s) | The University of Western Ontario Research Ethics Board for Health Sciences Research Involving Human Subjects (HSREB), 08/11/2004 |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Discipline and Sleep Problems |
Intervention | Intervention group in each trial (trial 1 - [sleep], trial 2 [discipline] and trial 3 [both sleep and discipline]) will receive by mail a problem-specific self-help treatment booklet. Trial 3 participants will receive one of the two treatment booklets. Furthermore all of them will receive telephone support (three phone calls in total over six week treatment period) in addition to usual care by a family physician. Control group: Usual care by a family physician. |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | There are separate primary outcomes measured for each trial: Sleep and bedtime problems trial (Trial 1): Parent report on the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire Discipline problems trial (Trial 2): Parent rated total problem score on the Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory Sleep and Discipline problems trial (Trial 3): Parent report on the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (Group 1 Sleep treatment) and Parent rated total problem score on the Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (Group 2 Discipline treatment) |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Parenting practices - Total score on the Parenting Scale 2. General child behavior problems - Total problem score on the Child Behavior Checklist 3. Daily recall ratings of sleep and discipline problems (four reports in total) 4. Parent report on the Richman sleep questionnaire (only for trial 1 [sleep and bedtime problems] and for trial 3 participants if in sleep treatment condition) |
