ABSTRACT

Background:

Parent training (PT) programs have been implemented for neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in recent years. However, in Southeast Asia, the diffusion of rehabilitation programs for children with ASD and that of PT as a parental support measure has been slow.

Methods:

This study assessed the effectiveness of an online PT program that was developed in Japan and remotely delivered to Vietnamese parents of children with ASD residing in Vietnam. Sixteen parents of Vietnamese children with ASD participated in seven online Tottori University-style PT sessions. The online PT was conducted in real-time from Japan, considering the two-hour time difference between countries. Lectures and exercises were presented in Vietnamese with PowerPoint materials. Japanese staff provided explanations in Japanese, which were then simultaneously translated by a Vietnamese interpreter. Attendance, completion of homework assignments, and the number of statements on Zoom and social media were tallied. A pre-post-test design was employed to measure changes in parents' mental health factors and children's behavior. A post-intervention questionnaire was administered to assess participant's acceptance of PT.

Results:

The findings showed that attendance and task completion rates were considerably high. The study found that the mental health scores of parents significantly improved after participating in online parenting training compared to before. However, there were no statistically significant improvements found in children's behavior. The study also confirmed high satisfaction with the cross-country online parenting training.

Conclusion:

This study confirmed that TUPT, developed in Japan and implemented as an online PT for parents of children with ASD living in Vietnam, was effective in improving parental mental health. The program acceptability questionnaire also showed positive results. This study is the first step in the evaluation and dissemination of Internet-based, cross-country parent training for parental support in Asia.
