ABSTRACT
Infancy, a formative period for development, has been identified as an advantageous time to provide family-centered support for children with delays. Families should be included as stakeholders during development of such interventions to ensure social value. We describe a preliminary randomized controlled trial evaluating Infant Achievements (IA), an 8-week (16-session) parent-mediated intervention for parents of infants 8-12 months old with social communication delays. This study reports our qualitative examination of the intervention’s social validity. We conducted focus groups with 7 IA parent participants and analyzed their responses using conventional content analysis. Five themes emerged: (a) difficulty identifying resources to address concerns, (b) seeking validation of concerns, (c) seeking support to enhance children’s development, (d) experiencing a supportive coaching relationship, and (e) creating meaningful interactions to support children’s communication and social skills. Our results emphasize the necessity of partnering with families in the development of evidence-based family-centered interventions for infants with developmental delays to maximize their social value.
