Official Title: Parent Training and Emotion Coaching for Children With Limited Prosocial Emotions
Brief Summary: The proposed research will focus on the development of a brief emotion-coaching (EC) parenting program (which directly targets child emotion awareness/recognition and affective empathy), that will be combined with a well-established parent management training program (Helping the Noncompliant Child; HNC) for treating oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) in children who also have limited prosocial emotions (e.g., lack of guilt and empathy, callous use of others).
