ATTACH in Denmark: A Feasibility Randomized Controlled Trial

The goal of this feasibility randomized controlled pilot trial is to learn whether the trial can be done as planned, and to investigate if the 10-session parenting program "ATTACH(TM) increases mentalizing skills (the ability to reflect on thoughts and feelings) in parents of children between 0-5 years of age, who are receiving support for psychosocial problems in their municipal family treatment center. The main questions the trial aims to answer are: * How many eligible parents agree to participate in the random allocation to treatment? * How many parents allocated to receive "ATTACH(TM) will have completed the program 5 months after allocation (at least 7 out of 10 sessions)? * How many parents complete the data collection 5 months after allocation on the primary exploratory clinical outcome, i.e., parental mentalizing skills? * Do parents who received the ATTACH(TM) program show more increase in their mentalizing skills, compared to parents, who did not receive treatment with ATTACH(TM)? Researchers will compare ATTACH, added to Treatment as Usual, with Treatment as Usual without ATTACH in three municipal family treatment centers located in the Capital Region of Denmark. Participants will: 1. Take part in baseline data collection with a survey, video observation of parent-child interaction, and an interview assessing mentalizing skills. 2. Be randomly allocated to receive treatment in their local family center with or without ATTACH. 3. Take part in data collection 5 months after being allocated to either group, as well as participate in an interview about their experiences with the treatment they received. 4. After one year, the research group will follow up on the current treatment/support needs of the families, who were allocated to either group.

Clinical Trial Recruitment and Retention Strategies for Family Members in the ICU

There is a need to identify strategies that improve the conduct of clinical trials involving family members of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate recruitment and retention strategies for clinical trials involving family members of ICU patients. 4 strategies (2 recruitment and 2 retention) will be tested. Investigators will integrate the strategies into three existing studies that involve family members of ICU patients. Participants will be randomized using a 2x2 factorial design. The co-primary outcomes are recruitment percentage (participants enrolled/participants approached) and retention percentage (participants completing follow-up/participants enrolled).
