Attachment and trauma-informed programme to support forcibly displaced parents of youth in Sweden: feasibility and preliminary outcomes of the<i>eConnect Online</i>programme
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objectives To assess the feasibility, acceptability and the impact of an online parenting programme for forcibly displaced parents of adolescents. Design The study was a single-arm feasibility study using pre-intervention post-intervention and follow-up assessments. Setting Participants were recruited from municipality-based activities for refugee parents in a small city in the south of Sweden. Participants Participants were forcibly displaced parents (n=23; 47.8% maternal figures) of youth (n=23; 8–17 years old; 26.1% female) from Syria, Afghanistan and Somalia participating in an online parenting programme (eConnect). Intervention eConnectis an attachment-based and trauma-informed parenting intervention and was delivered over the course of 10 weekly sessions. Primary and secondary outcome measures Feasibility was assessed by programme enrolment, attendance, completion and acceptability of the online platform and cultural fit of the programme. Primary outcome measures were programme impact on youth mental health problems. Secondary outcome measures were programme impact on family functioning and parent–child attachment insecurity. Results TheeConnectprogramme was highly feasible in terms of overall enrolment (100%), attendance (89.6%) and retention rates (100%). The online platform was acceptable, with mixed feedback primarily related to the access and usage of technology. Cultural fit of the programme was acceptable. Youth mental health problems (η2=0.29) and family functioning significantly improved (η2=0.18) over the course of the programme. Unexpectedly, parent reports of youth attachment insecurity significantly worsened (η2=0.16). Conclusions The findings suggest that the online delivery ofConnectwas a promising way to reduce barriers to service access and improve mental health problems and family functioning among forcibly displaced parents and their children during COVID-19. Future research is needed to explore the acceptability and impact of this programme post-COVID-19, and to develop culturally tailored and psychometrically sound measures for parent and youth reports of attachment.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
