Randomized Control Trial of the Co-Parenting for Resilience Program

Because parental divorce has been linked to a significant increase in mental health diagnoses among children, it is important to develop effective interventions that reduce the negative impact of divorce on children. This study assesses the efficacy of the Co-Parenting for Resilience (CPR) resilience program by randomly assigning divorcing individuals to three different forms of the intervention to test whether one or both of versions of CPR are better than reading a self-help book, and whether an in-person version of CPR is more effective than an online version. The three conditions or versions are: 1) an in-person version of CPR taught by a trained non-clinician, 2) an asynchronous fully online version of CPR, and 3) a group that simply reads a self-help book and responds to a knowledge check to ensure the material was read.
