Brief Title ICMJE | Psychoeducation of Parents to Children With FASD | ||||||||
Official Title ICMJE | Evaluation of a Treatment Program Based on Psychoeducation of Parents of Children and Adolescents With Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) | ||||||||
Brief Summary | By longitudinal, prospective research in children and adolescents with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) and their parents to explore the beneficial effects of participating in a standardized intervention program in order to treat and reduce the consequences of early brain damage. By using elements from international programs based on psychoeducation and parent training, the investigators aim to help parents to better understand and respond to the neurodevelopmental disabilities of their children, and thereby improving behavioral problems and self-regulation deficits. | ||||||||
Detailed Description | The main aim of this research project is to evaluate the effects of a standardized intervention program for parents and professionals working with children and adolescents with FASD. Focus will be on care-persons' knowledge and skills and psychoeducation with regard to improved handling of behavioral problems and deficits in self-regulation due to FASD. To achieve this aim objectives will be:
The current study hypothesizes that caregivers who understand and view their children's behavior from a neurodevelopmental perspective are more likely to feel competence, use antecedent strategies, and thereby reduce child problem behavior and improve functional outcome (Fig. 2). The investigators hypothesize that participation in this program will improve parental empowerment and child self-regulation and behavior compared with baseline assessments. |
