Model description

Video-Feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) aims to promote sensitive responsiveness and sensitive discipline and serves families with children ages 1 through 7 who have an increased risk of behavioral problems. For the purpose of the HomVEE review, the only VIPP-SD studies included were those of sites that served families with children ages 1 through 5. VIPP-SD consists of six or seven home visits that occur once or twice per month and last about two hours each. During visits, the home visitor video records the interaction between the caregiver and child. At subsequent visits, the home visitor and caregiver review selected clips from the video taken during the previous visit, and the home visitor provides feedback on the caregiver’s discipline practices and sensitivity to the child’s cues. Video-Feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting (VIPP) is an adaptation of VIPP-SD that was developed for families with infants from birth to 12 months and consists of six or seven home visits that focus on fostering a positive attachment between the infant and caregiver.

This report also includes studies of VIPP-AUTI and the British Autism Study of Infant Siblings (iBASIS)-VIPP. VIPP-AUTI is an adaptation of VIPP for families who have children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. VIPP-AUTI consists of six home visits focused on helping caregivers understand their children’s behavior and enhancing caregiver–child interactions. iBASIS-VIPP is an adaptation of VIPP for families with infants who have a sibling with autism spectrum disorder. iBASIS-VIPP added up to six booster visits after the standard six visits and included additional therapeutic procedures to respond to developmental atypicalities.
