This preregistered randomized controlled study investigated the effects of Video-Feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) on parents’ secure base script knowledge (SBSK).
Furthermore, we examined whether effects of VIPP-SD on sensitive caregiving and sensitive discipline behavior
and parents’ attitudes toward these behaviors were moderated by SBSK at baseline. Families (n = 445) with preand school-aged children (n = 890) were randomized to receive VIPP-SD or telephone calls. Results showed no
effects of VIPP-SD on SBSK. Furthermore, there was no moderation of effects on sensitive caregiving or sensitive
discipline behavior by SBSK. VIPP-SD promoted positive attitudes toward sensitive caregiving and sensitive
discipline behavior. The latter effect was moderated by SBSK: parents with lower SBSK showed the strongest
improvements in positive attitudes toward sensitive discipline behavior. This effect was driven by a subgroup of
younger children. These findings highlight the potential importance of tailoring interventions to meet the specific
needs of parents with varying levels of SBSK
