项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY By 2050, 35% of US children will be Latino1, and these youth will number 28 million in the US public schools2. Latino youth are at disproportionate risk for growing up in poverty, attending economically disadvantaged schools, and being exposed to stressors associated with their minority status3;4. Yet, they are under- represented in prevention science5;6. When included in trials, Latinos have low rates of recruitment and retention. Yet evidenced-based family programs7-9 designed to enhance protective factors (interpersonal and socio-emotional competencies; positive family dynamics) can buffer the negative impacts of contextual adversity10;11. Thus, identifying efficacious programs that can successfully engage youth and parents in economically disadvantaged settings is critical for Latino youth, for their families, and for the nation. The proposed project tests the efficacy of an innovative, family-focused program—Siblings are Special (SIBS)— which focuses on sibling relationships and parenting of siblings as synergistic targets of change to promote positive interpersonal family dynamics and parent and youth psychosocial and behavioral health and well- being. This translational effort builds on strong theoretical and empirical premises including a successful pilot study12. Using a rigorous design and measurement approach, aims are to: (a) test the efficacy of SIBS, delivered via 12 weekly afterschool sibling sessions and 3 family nights in the familiar elementary school setting, versus a contact-equivalent attention control condition; and (b) test whether cultural resources (familism values), sociocultural risks, and sibling dyad characteristics (birth order, sibling gender, and sibling dyad gender constellation) moderate program efficacy. Mexican-origin sibling dyads (5th graders and younger siblings; N = 384 dyads) and parents will be recruited from economically disadvantaged elementary schools and randomly assigned within school to intervention or contact-equivalent attention control conditions. Assessments will be conducted at pre-test, post-test, and 18-month follow-up and will include: (a) interviews/surveys with parents and target siblings; (b) teacher ratings and school grades; and (c) daily diary data collected on 8 consecutive days from target siblings. The project will test program effects on short- and long-term outcomes, including siblings' socio-emotional skills and adjustment, school engagement and achievement, daily positive and negative well-being, family relationship quality, and siblings' and parents' global psychosocial well-being. The size and growth of the Latino/Mexican-origin population13, coupled with their disproportionate risk of living in economically disadvantaged settings3;4 make them an ideal target for an innovative family-based approach that applies dissemination principles to enhance recruitment and retention. Findings will advance prevention science by identifying an efficacious program that capitalizes on cultural assets to promote positive family dynamics and psychosocial well-being among Latinos, including by incorporating daily measurements of intervention targets and outcomes to identify mechanisms underlying program effects.

项目概要到 2050 年，35% 的美国儿童将是拉丁裔1，而在美国公立学校就读的青少年人数将达到 2800 万2。拉丁裔青年面临着在贫困中成长、进入经济弱势群体的不成比例的风险学校，并面临与少数群体身份相关的压力3；4 然而，他们的状况不佳。预防科学中的代表5；6 当纳入试验时，拉丁裔的招募率和然而，基于证据的家庭计划7-9旨在增强保护因素（人际关系和社会情感能力；积极的家庭动态）可以缓冲情境的负面影响因此，确定能够成功吸引青少年和家长参与的有效计划。经济上处于不利地位的环境对于拉丁裔青年、他们的家庭和国家至关重要。拟议的项目测试了一项以家庭为中心的创新计划的有效性——兄弟姐妹很特别（SIBS）—— 重点关注兄弟姐妹关系和兄弟姐妹的养育方式，将其作为变革的协同目标，以促进积极的人际家庭动态以及父母和青少年的心理社会和行为健康和福祉这种转化努力建立在强大的理论和经验基础上，包括成功的试点。研究 12. 采用严格的设计和测量方法，目的是： (a) 测试 SIBS 的功效，通过每周 12 次放学后的兄弟姐妹聚会和在熟悉的小学举行的 3 次家庭之夜来提供环境，与接触等效注意控制条件；以及（b）测试文化资源是否存在（家庭主义价值观）、社会文化风险和兄弟姐妹二元特征（出生顺序、兄弟姐妹性别和兄弟姐妹墨西哥裔兄弟姐妹（五年级及以下学生）的项目效果中等。兄弟姐妹；N = 384 人）和家长将从经济困难的小学招募并在学校内分配干预或随机接触等效注意力控制条件。评估将在测试前、测试后和 18 个月的随访中进行，包括：(a) 与家长和目标兄弟姐妹的访谈/调查；(b) 教师评分和学校成绩；以及 (c) 日记；该项目将测试项目对短期和短期的影响。长期成果，包括兄弟姐妹的社会情感技能和调整、学校参与度和成就、日常积极和消极幸福感、家庭关系质量以及兄弟姐妹和父母的全球社会心理健康状况，以及拉丁裔/墨西哥裔人口的规模和增长13。他们生活在经济弱势环境中的风险过大3;4，这使他们成为一个理想的目标以家庭为基础的创新方法，运用传播原则来加强招聘和保留。研究结果将通过确定一个利用文化的有效计划来推进预防科学促进拉丁美洲人积极的家庭动力和心理社会福祉的资产，包括纳入干预目标和结果的日常测量，以确定潜在的机制节目效果。
