[P1-4] The effect of Parenting resilience and triple P intervention
[Introduction] The Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) was designed as a comprehensive, multi-level, prevention-oriented system of parenting support aimed at preventing and reducing childhood emotional and behavioral problems by promoting parental skills, knowledge, and confidence. We intervened using triple P for the purpose of improvement of a parenting resilience of mother of children with developmental disorders (CDD) and examined the effect.
[Method] Participating collaborators are 63 mothers of children with DD (ASD or ADHD) who participated in Triple P during 2013~15. We evaluated resilience and a change of the stress by the Triple P attendance. A parenting Resilience Questionnaire (PRQ), cortisol in the saliva (cortisol) were evaluated by before(pre), during(5w), after(post) triple P attendance. Approval for the study was obtained from the Kurume University Research Ethics Committee.
[Results] The resilience was higher the post- Triple P than the pre- Triple P (p<.001). PRQ subscales (knowledge of the child’s characteristics, perceived social supports, positive perception of parenting) were higher the post- Triple P than the pre- Triple P (p<.001). The cortisol before sleeping decreased the post- Triple P from the pre- Triple P, the 5w - Triple P (p<.01). The mean cortisol awakening response (CAR) of the participants, the CAR of the post- Triple P was significantly higher than the CAR of the pre- Triple P (p<.01). A correlation was found between PRQ and cortisol (before sleeping: r=-0.51, CAR: r=0.64).
[Conclusion] It was suggested that resilience of mothers with CDD improved with triple P intervention and stress was also alleviated.
