The 'Teen Triple P' Positive Parenting Program: a preliminary evaluation
No full textAlan Ralph and Matthew R. Sanders describe a preliminary evaluation of a \u27Teen Triple P\u27 Positive Parenting Program, delivered to parents of pre-adolescent children at the transition from primary to secondary school in Queensland. Preliminary results suggest positive outcomes for most participating parents. There have been significant reductions in a variety of risk factors, and improvements in family functioning, with some evidence of improvements still being maintained after six months
Quality assurance and program development
No full textInterventions need to remain relevant, appropriate, and effective for the populations they aim to target. This chapter focuses on describing a quality assurance process that can be used by program developers to facilitate program innovation through a 10-stage research-and-development cycle. Using the Triple P system as the exemplar, we illustrate how the model can be applied continuously from initial program development, program adaptation, to global international dissemination to ensure the program is ready for dissemination and will benefit as many families as possible. The intervention development framework presented outlines important considerations and lessons learned in the development cycle of interventions. The framework aims to ensure that the quality assurance and quality control of interventions remains high so that interventions can be as successful as possible.</p
Parenting support in the context of natural disaster
No full textNatural disasters have become more frequent with climate change. Postdisaster, children and adolescents represent a particularly vulnerable group. Parents have a vital role in influencing how their children make sense of and respond to any potentially traumatic event. Supporting parents is particularly critical postdisaster, as parents will typically have been affected also, with implications for their parenting and the parent–child relationship. To date, only one postdisaster parenting intervention has been described and evaluated. A new, universal parenting intervention—Disaster Recovery Triple P (DRTP)—is introduced and efficacy data presented. Implementation issues to be considered in making a parenting intervention such as DRTP work in a postdisaster context are discussed.</p
Innovation in parenting programs
No full textInnovation has characterized the whole field of behavioral family intervention since its inception. This chapter reflects on the innovative developments that have occurred over the past four decades as the field of evidence-based parenting support has evolved in response to cumulating evidence relating to effectiveness. Despite these advances, it is argued that new approaches are needed to improve outcomes in many areas of unmet need and to address contemporary issues for new generations of parents. The challenge is to deliver evidence-based parenting support on a global scale and thereby substantially enhance the well-being of all children, families, and communities. The organizational contexts and research environments that are likely to nurture a thriving culture of program innovation while training the next generation of parenting researchers and program developers are discussed.</p
A collaborative partnership adaptation model
No full textThere is a need to increase access to evidence-based parenting support in disadvantaged and marginalized communities; however, cultural fit of a mainstream program may be a significant barrier to program adoption. Tailoring existing programs to local family and community needs is the most cost-effective route to achieve broader population reach, rather than creating a new program for each culturally diverse community. This chapter presents a collaborative partnership adaptation model that considers cultural fit and presents a process for tailored cultural adaptation of the implementation of parenting programs, including variations relating to both content and process that may be required for different cultural groups. The examples of Indigenous Triple P, developed with Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community consultation, and Te Whānau Pou Toru (Three Pillars of Positive Parenting), developed with New Zealand Māori community consultation, are discussed as examples.</p

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
