“…These strategies have dealt with resolving parental psychosocial adjustment, behavioral problems and have had a special focus on populations with low socioeconomic status [ 1 ]. However, there is a lack of parenting studies with the aim of promoting healthy lifestyles in children through parental competence that have adopted a universal approach [ 15 ]. In doing so, there is a need to develop a rigorous theoretical framework [ 1 ].…”

Positive parenting programs are a key strategy to promote the development of parental competence. We designed a pilot study based on parental self-efficacy to promote healthy lifestyles in their children aged between 2 to 5 years old. In this pilot study, we aimed to assess the effects of a parenting program on parental self-efficacy and parenting styles. Twenty-five parents were allocated into intervention (N = 15) and control group (N = 10). Parents from the intervention group received four group sessions (120 mi per session) to develop a positive parenting, parenting styles and parenting skills regarding to children’s diet, exercise, and screen time, and two additional sessions about child development and family games. Parents from the control group received these two latter sessions. Parental self-efficacy, parenting styles, and meal-related parenting practices were measured before and after the intervention and at 3-month follow-up. Acceptability and feasibility of the program was also measured. Quantitative data were analyzed using the repeat measures ANOVA and ANCOVA tests and the effect size calculation. Content analysis was used to analyse open questions. Positive trends were found regarding parental self-efficacy and the use of authoritative parenting style. Parents also reported a great acceptability of the program getting high satisfaction. According to the feasibility barriers and facilitators aspects were identified. The positive trends founded in this study support the development of parenting programs to promote healthy lifestyle in children.

“…In addition, various studies have shown that low levels of perceived parenting competence are related to feelings of stress (Iadarola et al, 2018), anxiety (Chavis, 2016), fatigue (Cooklin, Giallo, & Rose, 2012), and depression (Angley, Divney, Magriples, & Kershaw, 2014) while in maternal roles. For all these reasons, the need for high-quality measurement methods for assessing and improving the effectiveness of current parenting competence interventions has been highlighted (Ruiz, Serrano, & Mujika, 2017). Given the properties and considerations described for the Spanish version of the PSOC, the present study aimed to develop a new version of this instrument with better psychometric properties.…”

Perceived parenting competence influences parenting practices and is a decisive factor in child development and health. There is a lack of valid and reliable tools in Spain to measure perceived parenting competence. The objective was to adapt the Parenting Sense of Competence scale (PSOC) and analyse its psychometric properties in a sample of 600 mothers of children aged between 6 and 12 months old from Spain. The PSOC was translated into Spanish (PSOC‐E) using a standard forward‐ and back‐translation process. Internal consistency, factor structure, and comparisons between known groups and correlations with other variables were assessed. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the original two‐factor structure: satisfaction and efficacy. The PSOC‐E showed good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = .85). Perceived parenting competence was negatively associated (P < .01) with parental depression, fatigue, and parental stress and positively associated (P < .01) with dyadic adjustment. An equivalent Spanish version of the PSOC was obtained with good evidence of reliability and validity.

“…Dicho interés también es global, pues se han identifi cado evaluaciones de programas en todos los continentes. Respecto a los países, al igual que Barlow et al (2012) o Ruiz et al (2018), se han localizado intevenciones desarrolladas en Australia, en Europa y en Estados Unidos. No obstante, también se han encontrado en África, Sudamérica y Asia, lo cual sigue la estela de la carencia apuntada por autores como Mejía et al (2012), que destacan la necesidad de localizar programas implementados y evaluados en países en vías de desarrollo.…”

“…En otro orden de cosas, las variables medidas más reveladas en esta investigación son en parte coincidentes con los hallazgos de otras previas. Por ejemplo, los problemas de comportamiento de los menores (como en Barlow et al, 2012;Lozano-Rodríguez y Valero-Aguayo, 2017; Pisani Altafi m y Martins Linhares, 2016; y Robles Pacho y Romero Triñanes, 2017), el estrés parental (como en Robles Pacho y Romero Triñanes, 2011), la satisfacción parental y la autoefi cacia de los progenitores (como en Liyana Amin et al, 2018;Ruiz et al, 2018), las prácticas de crianza positivas (como en Pisani Altafi m y Martins Linhares, 2016;Ruiz et al, 2018). No obstante, aunque se den coincidencias, en el presente estudio no ha sido recurrente la medición de variables tales como el maltrato o la violencia infantil, como sí lo fue en el trabajo de Lozano-Rodríguez y Valero-Aguayo (2017).…”

“…Es preciso señalar que en la presente investigación se analizaron más de un centenar de informes relacionados con la evaluación de programas grupales de educación parental. El número de informes incluidos es bastante superior al de otras investigaciones (Pisani Altafi m y Martins Linhares, 2016; Robles Pacho y Romero Triñanes, 2011;Ruiz et al, 2018), pues se pretendió mostrar una mirada panorámica de las características generales y técnicas de los estudios revisados.…”

Se ejecutó una revisión de alcance de las características de los estudios de evaluación de programas grupales de educación para progenitores con hijos de cero a dieciocho años, extraídos de ocho bases de datos, entre los años 2006 y 2019 y pertenecientes a revistas científi cas. De los 114 artículos revisados, la mayoría estaban publicados en Norteamérica o Europa, eran ensayos controlados aleatorizados, contaban con muestras pequeñas (inferiores a 100 sujetos), se implementaron en contextos escolares y estaban destinados a progenitores con hijos de hasta seis años o necesidades específi cas de apoyo educativo. Un amplio porcentaje (49.5%) no incluía pruebas de seguimiento post-intervención. Habitualmente el número de sesiones oscilaba entre seis y ocho (30.2%), con una duración promedio de dos horas y una perioricidad de una a la semana. Las intervenciones más evaluadas fueron Triple-P, Incredible Years, Strengthening Families y el Programa-Guía. Los contenidos más abordados fueron la comunicación, las emociones y las estrategias para manejar las conductas. Las principales variables medidas fueron los problemas de comportamiento, las prácticas de crianza y la autoefi cacia parental. Se detectó un interés creciente y global en el tópico analizado; se proporcionan datos actualizados que pueden ser útiles a profesionales e investigadores del área y guiar los procesos de diseño de nuevas intervenciones.

Abstract: Outcomes of interventions to improve parental competence in order to promote children's lifestyles are promising, but inconsistent. Additional studies with higher methodological and conceptual quality are needed.
