A nonrandomized trial of a behavioral parent training intervention for parents with children with challenging behaviors: In-person versus internet-HOT DOCS
The COVID-19 pandemic has spurred the development of numerous online alternatives to face-to-face therapy. In this non-randomised study, online behavioural parent training (BPT) was found to be as effective as in-person training and user satisfaction were greater in the online group. Although more definite evidence of efficacy is needed, BPT joins Triple P online as another viable digital means of improving child behaviour.
