Abstract
An 8-week pilot study evaluated a brief attachment-based parenting program, Aware Parenting, for parents of children aged 2 − 4 years. This study is a preliminary evaluation of a brief version of the Aware Parenting approach. Thirty-three parents were randomly assigned to either the program group (n = 17) or control group (n = 16). Descriptive statistics found that the program group scores for Parent Efficacy and Empowerment Measurement (PEEM) improved, and parents’ reports of total difficulties as measured by the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) slightly decreased. Findings from this study may be useful for future research of Aware Parenting programs.
