An evidence-based intervention designed to help parents tailor their style effectively manage DBDs was implemented Uganda between 2017 2023. At the end of intervention, caregivers displayed lower levels stress than controls, however mechanisms by which reduction occurred unknown. We investigated whether intervention's effect on mediated practices, family cohesion, or mental health. Mediation assessed using Mitchell Maxwell's cross-lagged auto-regressive approach. Each mediation model regressed outcome score at each time point onto group assignment (0 = Control; 1 Multiple Family Group (MFG) intervention) preceding point. mediator one a Parenting also score. The residuals for mediators were allowed correlate included regression pathways from covariate outcomes subsequent waves as random variables. findings show that had significant direct 16 weeks post initiation partially caregiver health, 8 weeks, but we found no evidence it supporting two our hypotheses.

Abstract Objectives Retrospective harmonisation of data obtained through different instruments creates measurement error, even if the underlying concepts are assumed same. We tested a novel method for item‐level two widely used that measure emotional and behavioural problems: Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) Strengths Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Methods Item content CBCL SDQ was mapped onto four dimensions: problems, peer relationship hyperactivity/inattention conduct problems. A diverse test sample drawn from prospective longitudinal birth cohort studies in Australia Europe who one or both instruments. The pooled included 5188 points assessing children adolescents aged 6–13 years ( N = 257–704 participants per cohort). Measurement invariance assessed using latent variable multi‐group confirmatory factor analysis. Results Fifteen items were dimensions allowing testing as part stepwise process. Partial strict between assessments established all dimensions. Conclusions harmonised emotional, relationship, problems invariant across suggesting these can be reliably compared with limited error.
