Abstract

Reducing behavioural problems in young children through vi- deo feedback. A pragmatic randomized clinical trial The use of videofeedback technique at home (Video-feedback In- tervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipli- ne - VIPP-SD) is evaluated. This is the first video-feedback RCT carried out in a primary care setting. 300 families with children aged 12-36 months who had an upper range score for behaviour problems (Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire - SDQ) were involved. The intervention proved to be effective in reducing early behavioural problems in 1 and 2 year old children. The benefits of the intervention are seen in behavioural problems rather than in attention problems and are more evident when the initial symp- toms are worse. No appreciable differences were recorded for all the outcomes concerning parents (educational practices, mood, anxiety, functioning of the parental couple).
