Abstract
- Background Adapted parenting support may alleviate the high levels of parenting stress experienced by many parents with intellectual disabilities. Methods Parents with mild intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning were randomized to experimental ( n = 43) and control ( n = 42) conditions. Parents in both groups received care-as-usual. The experimental group also received an adapted version of video-feedback intervention for positive parenting and learning difficulties ( VIPP- LD). Measures of parenting stress were obtained pre-test, post-test and 3-month follow-up. Results Randomization to the experimental group led to a steeper decline in parenting stress related to the child compared to the control group ( d = 0.46). No statistically significant effect on stress related to the parent's own functioning or situation was found. Conclusions The results of the study suggest the feasibility of reducing parenting stress in parents with mild intellectual disability (MID) through parenting support, to the possible benefit of their children.
