Parent-Adolescent Interpersonal Processes in the Science of Behavior Change

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This study seeks to examine a novel interpersonal target; namely, parent-teen conversations about youth health behavior change. The rationale is that parents have profound impacts on teen risk and vulnerability. Yet parents receive minimal training in the elements of conversations that optimally inspire their children toward engaging in healthy behaviors. A theoretically grounded and reliable taxonomy of behavior change techniques (BCTs) will be used as a basis for scientifically deriving the conversational elements, or micro-mechanisms, that reduce parent-teen conflict and facilitate upward spirals of healthful behavior change. This proposal builds on pilot data from a recently completed NICHD-funded R01 in which a sleep treatment improved sleep and reduced risk on selected outcomes in youth. While sleep-related health behaviors will be the focus of this R21, the research is designed to be relevant to a broad range of health behavior change. As part of an Administrative Supplement to the R21 awarded in Fall, 2019, two changes are made. First, measures of psychophysiology have been added to the Hot Topics Task. Second, an independent sample of teens who are healthy sleepers (n = 20), and their parents, will be tested on the protocol twice, 9 weeks apart. This comparison group is included to control for the passage of time and for completing the protocol twice. They do not receive an intervention.

Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: PBC_I plus TranS-C
The Parent Behavior Change Intervention (PBC-I) is a behavioral intervention intended to teach parent behavior change techniques to better support their adolescents to improve sleep health behavior. The Transdiagnostic Intervention for Sleep and Circadian Dysfunction (TranS-C) is comprised of cross-cutting interventions, 'core modules' and 'optional modules'. TranS-C is derived and adapted from our previous disorder-focused research, firmly grounded in basic science and treatment literature.
Behavioral: Parent Behavior Change Intervention (PBC-I) and Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian Intervention (TranS-C)
PBC-I will be administered to the parent and TranS-C will be administered to the teenager. Both interventions are cognitive-behavioral and comprised of six weekly sessions. Parent and teenager sessions will be held in parallel.

Descriptive Information
Brief Title  ICMJE Parent-Adolescent Interpersonal Processes in the Science of Behavior Change
Official Title  ICMJE Parent-Adolescent Interpersonal Processes in the Science of Behavior Change
Brief Summary This study seeks to examine a novel interpersonal target; namely, parent-teen conversations about youth health behavior change. The rationale is that parents have profound impacts on teen risk and vulnerability. Yet parents receive minimal training in the elements of conversations that optimally inspire their children toward engaging in healthy behaviors. A theoretically grounded and reliable taxonomy of behavior change techniques (BCTs) will be used as a basis for scientifically deriving the conversational elements, or micro-mechanisms, that reduce parent-teen conflict and facilitate upward spirals of healthful behavior change. This proposal builds on pilot data from a recently completed NICHD-funded R01 in which a sleep treatment improved sleep and reduced risk on selected outcomes in youth. While sleep-related health behaviors will be the focus of this R21, the research is designed to be relevant to a broad range of health behavior change. As part of an Administrative Supplement to the R21 awarded in Fall, 2019, two changes are made. First, measures of psychophysiology have been added to the Hot Topics Task. Second, an independent sample of teens who are healthy sleepers (n = 20), and their parents, will be tested on the protocol twice, 9 weeks apart. This comparison group is included to control for the passage of time and for completing the protocol twice. They do not receive an intervention.

Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Condition  ICMJE
  • Sleep Deprivation
  • Adolescent Behavior
Intervention  ICMJE Behavioral: Parent Behavior Change Intervention (PBC-I) and Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian Intervention (TranS-C)
PBC-I will be administered to the parent and TranS-C will be administered to the teenager. Both interventions are cognitive-behavioral and comprised of six weekly sessions. Parent and teenager sessions will be held in parallel.
Study Arms  ICMJE Experimental: PBC_I plus TranS-C
The Parent Behavior Change Intervention (PBC-I) is a behavioral intervention intended to teach parent behavior change techniques to better support their adolescents to improve sleep health behavior. The Transdiagnostic Intervention for Sleep and Circadian Dysfunction (TranS-C) is comprised of cross-cutting interventions, 'core modules' and 'optional modules'. TranS-C is derived and adapted from our previous disorder-focused research, firmly grounded in basic science and treatment literature.
