"Daily Growth" Parenting Program Delivered via Ecological Momentary Intervention: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of a Prototype.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Despite evidence showing that parenting interventions reduce rates of child mental health problems, their reach and engagement remain low. Daily Growth is a digital parenting program designed to improve parent and child emotion regulation using an ecological momentary intervention (EMI) approach. Daily Growth sends twice-daily prompts and delivers 3-minute videos tailored to a recent parenting situation, offering 2 program types (Emotion Coaching and Active Play) to meet different parent preferences. EMI has rarely been tested with parenting programs. Objective: This pilot aimed to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the EMI design and a prototype of Daily Growth, offering the 2 programs via 10 of 60 planned videos. Methods: A pilot randomized controlled trial recruited 189 Australian parents of children aged 2-4 years, randomized to either intervention (n=94) or active control (n=95). Participants completed a 25-minute online survey at baseline and at conclusion of the program period. In the intervening 2 weeks, participants received twice-daily 1-minute pre-EMI surveys via email. Participants who reported any parent or child negative affect or emotion dysregulation received a resource. Participants in the intervention condition were randomized in the moment to receive a 3-minute Emotion Coaching or Active Play video, while participants in the control condition received a link to a parenting website. Participants were sent a 1-minute post-EMI survey. For both conditions, parenting support was tailored to 1 of 5 predefined parenting situations. Results: Overall, 71% (135/189) of participants completed the 2-week post survey, and over two-thirds completed at least half of the daily pre-EMI surveys. Despite technical issues, most participants would recommend Daily Growth to other parents (53/67, 79%), use the skills learned (46/67, 69%), reported it as easy to use (45/67, 67%), and were satisfied with Daily Growth (40/67, 60%). Conclusions: This pilot evaluated whether brief EMI resources could engage parents in real time. Findings suggest that the Daily Growth prototype was feasible and well received, supporting further implementation in a larger trial.
