Abstract

NEUFELD, Carmem Beatriz et al. Group Parent Orientation Program: An Exploratory Study on the Cognitive-Behavioral Approach. Psicol. pesq. [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.3, pp. 33-43. ISSN 1982-1247.  http://dx.doi.org/10.24879/2018001200300500.

The current difficulties faced by parents in raising their children lead them to seek more specialized help. The USP-RP Parent Guidance Program (PROPAIS), based on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, aims to promote the improvement of family life. Parents participating in the program have their children attended by trainees of Behavioral Cognitive Therapy I, and parental guidance is complementary to the child’s treatment. The objective of the study is to preliminarily evaluate the effects of these interventions, with a quantitative pre and post test design, based on the scores of the Parenting Styles Inventory (IEP) of 17 participants, identifying if there were differences between pre and post test regarding parental style. The analyzes indicated a significant difference between the tests, being that parents, in general, were able to improve their parental style and present a decrease in negative parental practices and, although studies with enlarged samples are required, the results suggest that the program has achieved its purpose.
