Abstract

Background: Premature children are known to be at a high risk of developing behavioral problems. This study examined the effectiveness of parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT) in reducing behavioral problems in young children born premature.

Methods: The study included 18 child-parent pairs with children born at less than 35 weeks of gestation (range: 23-34 weeks, median: 31.0 weeks) and aged 27-52 months (median: 38.0 months). They were assigned to either the PCIT group (n = 7) or the non-PCIT group (n = 11) based on maternal desire for treatment. The study was designed to examine the effects of PCIT. Specifically, the Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (ECBI) intensity score, ECBI problem score, and Parenting Stress Index Short Form (PSI-SF) scores were compared before treatment and after 6 months.

Results: In the PCIT group, the mean ECBI intensity score was 135.7 (SD = 13.5; T-score = 64) at baseline and 90.1 (SD = 15.5; T-score = 46) at post-assessment, the mean ECBI problem score was 9.8 (SD = 1.9; T-score = 54) at baseline and 4.4 (SD = 3.1; T-score = 44) at post-assessment, the mean PSI-SF total score was 60.1 (SD = 4.8; 95%tile) at baseline and 49.6 (SD = 5.6; 85%tile) at post-assessment, showing a significant improvement (ECBI intensity scores: p < 0.001, d = 2.03; ECBI problem scores: p < 0.001, d = 1.94; PSI-SF total scores: p = 0.004, d = 0.86). On the other hand, none of the scores showed significant change in the non-PCIT group.

Conclusions: The PCIT can be considered as a potential treatment option for behavioral problems in young children born premature.

亲子互动疗法对早产儿的疗效。

背景：众所周知，早产儿患行为问题的风险很高。本研究探讨了亲子互动疗法（PCIT）在减少早产儿行为问题方面的有效性：该研究包括 18 对儿童父母，他们的孩子出生时妊娠不足 35 周（范围：23-34 周，中位数：31.0 周），年龄在 27-52 个月（中位数：38.0 个月）之间。根据母亲的治疗意愿，他们被分配到 PCIT 组（7 人）或非 PCIT 组（11 人）。该研究旨在考察 PCIT 的效果。具体来说，研究人员比较了治疗前和治疗 6 个月后的艾伯格儿童行为量表（ECBI）强度得分、ECBI 问题得分和养育压力指数简表（PSI-SF）得分：在 PCIT 组，基线时 ECBI 强度平均得分为 135.7（SD = 13.5；T-score = 64），评估后为 90.1（SD = 15.5；T-score = 46）；基线时 ECBI 问题平均得分为 9.8（SD = 1.9；T-score = 54），评估后为 4.PSI-SF总分基线平均值为60.1（SD=4.8；95%分位数），评估后为49.6（SD=5.6；85%分位数），显示出显著的改善（ECBI强度评分：P 结论：PCIT可被认为是一种有效的治疗方法：PCIT 可被视为治疗早产幼儿行为问题的一种潜在方法。

期刊介绍： Publishing articles of scientific excellence in pediatrics and child health delivery, Pediatrics International aims to encourage those involved in the research, practice and delivery of child health to share their experiences, ideas and achievements. Formerly Acta Paediatrica Japonica, the change in name in 1999 to Pediatrics International, reflects the Journal''s international status both in readership and contributions (approximately 45% of articles published are from non-Japanese authors). The Editors continue their strong commitment to the sharing of scientific information for the benefit of children everywhere. Pediatrics International opens the door to all authors throughout the world. Manuscripts are judged by two experts solely upon the basis of their contribution of original data, original ideas and their presentation.
