The first goal was to determine if there were statistically significant pretest to posttest changes in parenting confidence, use of appropriate verbal discipline, and parent perceptions of child interpersonal strengths among 219 parents with children, ages 5 to 8, who participated in the NHA intervention in 2015. To address the first study goal, a series of repeated-measures analyses of variance (ANOVA) were conducted. The second study goal was to determine if parenting confidence, use of appropriate verbal discipline, and parent perceptions of child interpersonal strengths posttest mean scores were significantly different between 31 NHA intervention and 31 control parents, matched on pretest scores, parent gender, and child age (there were not enough intervention parents to match on child gender). The second study goal was addressed by conducting between-within (mixed) ANOVAs. Due to the relatively large number of analyses for hypothesis testing, the significance was set at p < .017, based on a Bonferroni correction. Results from the repeated-measures ANOVAs showed that the 219 NHA intervention parents had significant pretest-to-posttest increases in parenting confidence, use of appropriate verbal discipline, and perceptions of child interpersonal strengths. Results from the between-within (mixed) ANOVAs showed that NHA intervention parents had significantly higher use of appropriate verbal discipline from baseline to post-intervention; this significant change was not found for the group of control parents. NHA intervention parents did not, however, have significantly higher parenting confidence or perceptions of child interpersonal strengths posttest scores as compared to the control group of parents. Implications of the study are discussed. 2018-05-23 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1523231595379139 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1523231595379139 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
