다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Objectives: The caregiver-child relationship is key to the physical and mental health of children. Prevention and early intervention programs that support caregivers are a growing public health initiative. In the present study, we developed a caregiver-child relationship checkup(CRC) program and investigated its effectiveness in one of the nationwide community-based family centers. Method: A single-case, multiple-baseline design was used. Participants were 4 families with toddlers and 7∼8 data points were collected during the baseline phase and the intervention phase. After 2 months following the feedback phase, a follow-up interview was conducted and visual and statistical analyses were performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the CRC. Results: Overall, findings suggested that the CRC positively influenced caregivers, especially in heightening their self-understanding and understanding of how to improve relationships with their children. Participants also reported high levels of satisfaction with the CRC. Conclusions: These results support that the CRC can be a promising, brief prevention/intervention program for assessing and supporting caregiver-child relationships in the community-based family centers.
