Early exposure to poverty is associated with adverse impacts on long-term educational achievement. Support of positive parenting is a key strategy to prevent emergence of socioeconomic disparities in child development. This study will assess the feasibility of the pilot implementation of an evidence-based parenting program designed to prevent disparities in child development, the Video Interaction Project (VIP), in Brazil, as an exemplar low- and middle-income country (LMIC), and explore changes in parenting and child outcomes after participation in the program.
This international study will be conducted in Southern Brazil. After translation and cultural adaptation of VIP materials (Aim 1), a qualitative investigation of VIP implementation feasibility (Aim 2) will be conducted using semi-structured interviews and observation of engagement for approximately 50 caregiver-child dyads with children 0-5 years who will participate in 3 VIP sessions. To explore changes in parenting and child outcomes (Aim 3), dyads enrolled in the study (for Aim 2) will complete assessments pre- and post-participation in 3 VIP sessions.

| Video Interaction Project (VIP) program | Other | Video Interaction Project (VIP) is a strengths-based, family-centered intervention designed to enhance parenting practices/relationships and child development by promoting positive parenting practices such as pretend play, shared reading, and daily routines. In VIP's core component, a VIP coach video-records the parent / child for 3-5 minutes playing/reading with a provided toy and/or book, then reviews the video with the parent to facilitate self-reflection on the interaction and identifies and reinforces strengths. In the US, VIP is delivered in the context of pediatric primary care visits, with a COVID-19 remote adaptation (see Section 6 for details). Research staff will delivery VIP through video calls with subjects in Brazil. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in the Percentage of Acceptance of the Video Interaction Project | Semi-structured interviews (approximately 40-60 min) conducted. Caregivers will share their opinions about activities, provided materials, barriers/facilitators to participation and use of intervention strategies in the home. Interviews will be audio recorded, transcribed, and translated from Brazilian Portuguese to English. Guides for the semi structured interviews have been developed based on previous studies and theoretical frameworks. | Baseline Visit, Visit 4 (7 months) |
| Change in Parenting practices in Cognitive stimulation | StimQ - Infant survey will be used to evaluates reading, teaching, responsivity with the caregivers through a video call. The survey consist of 4 subscales, which are summed together for a total score (StimQ2-I range 0-42) | Baseline Visit, Visit 4 (7 months) |
| Changes in Parent-child interactions during reading | Adult-Child Interactive Reading Inventory (ACIRI) assesses both adult and child behaviors in three categories that research has identified as critical: Enhancing Attention to Text, Promoting Interactive Reading and Supporting Comprehension, and Using Literacy Strategies. An observational measure where caregivers and children are observed and given an score (3 = most of the time, 2 =some of the time , 1 = infrequently, 0= not at all) | Baseline Visit, Visit 4 (7 months) |
| Change in Parent Reading Belief of their children | The Parent Reading Belief Inventory (PRBI) is a self-reporting instrument that assess parents' beliefs about the frequency, quality, and importance of their child's literacy activities. The 42-item instrument provides seven subscales: positive affect, verbal participation, resources, teaching efficacy, knowledge base, environmental input, and reading instruction. | Baseline Visit, Visit 4 (7 months) |

| Change in Depression in Caregivers | The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is a questionnaire originally developed to assist in identifying possible symptoms of depression in the postnatal period.It is a 10-item questionnaire where women are asked to answer each question in terms of the past seven days. A score is calculated by adding the individual items for each question, the a score of 10 or above is commonly considered "possible depression." |

| Change in Stress in Caregivers | The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) is a 10-item questionnaire used to assess stress levels in young people and adults aged 12 and above. Respondents are asked how often they felt a certain way on a five-point scale from 'never' to 'very often'. (Never = 0, Almost never = 1, Sometimes = 2, Fairly often = 3, Very often = 4).The PSS score is then obtained by summing across all items. Higher scores indicate higher levels of perceived stress. | Baseline Visit, Visit 4 (7 months) |
| Child Development (CS) | Development of the Dimensional Inventory of Child Development Assessment (IDADI) assess child development of children from zero to 72 months of age through parental reports covering Cognitive, Motor (Gross and Fine), Communication and Language (Receptive and Expressive), Socioemotional and Adaptive Behavior domains. A three-point Likert scale was established where: yes (2-points); sometimes (1-point) ; and no (0-point) to indicate if the skill was mastered. | Baseline Visit, Visit 4 (7 months) |
