The Advancing Child Competencies by Extending Supported Services (ACCESS) for Families Program is a study funded by the National Institutes of Health to explore behavior and developmental problems among young children aging out of Early Steps (Part C). All families will participate in five evaluations in their home to learn more about their child's behavior and development. Families also may receive treatment designed to help change their child's behaviors that will be conducted over the Internet using a tablet.
The proposed study will evaluate, via a randomized controlled trial, the incremental utility of I-PCIT for disruptive behavioral problems in traditionally underserved young children with developmental delay (DD) from predominantly economically disadvantaged and ethnic and racial minority backgrounds. Specifically, the investigators are interested in the impact of I-PCIT on child disruptive behavior problems, parenting practices, parental distress, and pre-academic skills relative to traditional referrals as usual (RAU) among youth aging out of Part C EI services and transitioning from home-based family services to school-based special education services. A secondary goal is to evaluate potential moderators and mediators that explain under which circumstances, for whom, and through which pathways I-PCIT is most effective for young children with DD. Our primary aims are (1) to evaluate the immediate and one-year impact of I-PCIT on (1a) disruptive behavior problems in young children with DD, as well as (1b) parenting practices and (1c) parental distress in parents of young children with DD; (2) to evaluate the impact of I-PCIT on pre-academic skills among young children with DD; and (3) to evaluate (3a) family retention, (3b) engagement, and (3c) satisfaction associated with I-PCIT in young children with DD. Our secondary aim is to examine potential moderators and mediators of response to I-PCIT for disruptive behavior problems in young children with DD. Specifically, the investigators are interested in the extent to which technological literacy and access (4a) moderate I-PCIT efficacy, such that I-PCIT efficacy will be weaker among families with poorer technological literacy and/or access, and the extent to which traditional barriers to care (4b) moderate I-PCIT efficacy, such that the incremental efficacy of I-PCIT over RAU will be strongest among families with geographic, transportation and/or childcare obstacles to in-person services. Finally, the investigators hypothesize that I-PCIT will yield changes in child behavior and pre-academic skills indirectly through direct effects on parenting practices (4c). Specifically, changes in parental consistency, warmth, follow-through, and effective discipline will mediate observed I-PCIT efficacy, such that these treatment-related parenting changes will account for observed differences in child disruptive behavior problems and pre-academic skills.

The Sutter-Eyberg Student Behavior Inventory-Revised (SESBI-R; Eyberg & Pincus, 1999) is a teacher rating scale of disruptive behaviors at school in children as young as 2 years, and the Intensity and Problem scales will be used as outcome measures for participants in school to assess generalization of improvement in child disruptive behavior to the classroom setting. |

Caregivers will be instructed to describe the books to their children like they would normally for 5 minutes. This book is intended to elicit emotion talk as it includes emotional content, but also depicted multiple scenes, events, and objects that caregivers could talk about in addition to or instead of emotions, thereby permitting the capture of differences in caregivers' predilection to discuss emotions with their children. | Change from Week 0, Week 21, Week 42 and Week 68 |
| Family Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) | The Family Impact Questionnaire (FIQ; Donenberg & Baker, 1993) is a 50-item caregiver-report questionnaire of stress and strain, selected over other measures as an outcome of caregiver distress because it has been Child Disruptive Symptoms. | Change from Week 0, Week 8, Week 21, Week 42 and Week 68 |

| Child's Sleep Habits Questionnaire | The Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ; Owens et al. 2000) is a 33-item parent questionnaire designed to examine sleep behavior in young children and thus screen for the most common sleep problems. | Change from Week 0, Week 8, Week 21, Week 42 and Week 68 |
| Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System-IV (DPICS-4) | The Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System-4th Ed (DPICS-IV; Eyberg et al., 2013) is a structured behavioral observation coding system assessing caregiver-child interactions. Observed parenting behaviors will be coded during a 5-min child-led play and combined into two categories of positive (praises, behavior descriptions, and reflections) and negative (questions, commands, and negative talk) verbalizations, reflecting behaviors caregivers are taught to use and avoid in PCIT. Additionally, child compliance will be assessed during a 5-min caregiver-led play and 5-min clean up situation and will be examined as an objective outcome of child behavior. The positive and negative caregiver verbalizations will be examined as both outcomes and candidate mediators of treatment, and child compliance will be examined as an outcome. | Change from Week 0, Week 8, Week 21, Week 42 and Week 68 |
