Timeline
Interventions
The parent education program involves 12 in-home training sessions (90 minutes each), is administered by trained graduate and postdoctoral students in developmental psychology or a related field, and follows a standardized treatment manual (Siller, 2005). The active control involves three 90 minute in-home training sessions. These training sessions will be administered by trained graduate students or a postdoctoral student in a developmental psychology or related field. The active control will follow a standardized treatment manual (Kasari, 2008). This treatment manual was based upon the teacher training workshops created by the Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning.
