Synopsis

The Classic Edition of Promoting Positive Parenting illuminates the widespread success of the Video-feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD), now used in many countries, offering thousands of families the support they need to thrive.

A new preface from the authors reflects on the original research and development of the program, considers its effectiveness, and outlines future aims to broaden implementation and test new modalities. The original volume offers a new generation of students and professionals an introduction to the brief and focused parenting intervention program that has been successful in a variety of clinical and nonclinical groups and cultures. It offers detailed descriptions and case reports of studies with the program, describes the implementation and testing of VIPP-based interventions in a variety of family and childcare settings, and in various countries including the Netherlands, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It details the successful implementation of the program in samples of insecure mothers, mothers with eating disorders, preterm infants, adopted children, children suffering from dermatitis, and children with early externalizing behavior problems.

The Classic Edition of Promoting Positive Parenting is for all those concerned with family support and parenting interventions in the fields of developmental and clinical psychology, human development and family studies, psychiatry, social work, public health and nursing, and early childhood education.

About the Author

Femmie Juffer is professor emeritus in the field of adoption and foster care at Leiden University, the Netherlands. Her main interests focus on the lifelong consequences of early childhood neglect and abuse in adopted and foster children, as well as their often remarkable resilience and developmental recovery. She was involved in designing and testing interventions to support sensitive parenting and secure attachment in children.

Marian Bakermans-Kranenburg is full professor at ISPA Lisbon. She studies attachment and emotion regulation in parents and their children, with a special emphasis on neurobiological processes in parenting and development. Her academic interests include the interplay between nature and nurture, and hormonal correlates of parenting, in particular, in fathers. She considers parenting interventions very important to support parents and to shed light on the processes that steer child development.

Marinus H. van IJzendoorn is visiting professor at UCL University of London and Erasmus University Rotterdam, and professor emeritus of Leiden University. He is co-principal investigator of Generation R, a large cohort study of families in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and scientific consultant of the Leiden Consortium on Individual Development (L-CID) conducting a VIPP-SD intervention study with an accelerated longitudinal twin design. In the current era of the brain and the genome, his main goal is to document the role of parents and other caregivers in shaping their children’s lives.
