Study Summary
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to explore the efficacy of amplifying dialogic reading training provided to families of infants and toddlers in the ROR program using a novel, smartphone-based application (Rx for Success; RS). The RS app includes videos modeling dialogic reading for a variety of child ages, interactive games, and text messaging reminders to empower parents and other caregivers to increase constructive cognitive and social-emotional stimulation in the home through book sharing. This study addresses an evidence gap regarding the efficacy of dialogic reading training to improve cognitive and social-emotional health using a mobile, technology-based approach. It leverages existing ROR infrastructure and will provide valuable pilot data to improve and scale this inexpensive clinical resource and guide future longitudinal studies, to better serve low-SES, at-risk families. Aims and hypotheses are as follows: Specific Aim 1 (Rx for Success; RS): To explore the efficacy of incorporating dialogic reading training via the RS application into ROR during well-child visits for infants (6-12 months old) and toddlers (18-24 months old), compared to standard ROR practice. Hypothesis 1a (language): Language scores (LENA Snapshot) will be higher in children whose caregivers are provided with the RS app. Hypothesis 1b (social-emotional): Social-emotional development scores (DECA-I/T items) will be higher in children whose caregivers are provided with the RS app. Hypothesis 1c (dialogic quality): Dialogic reading quality scores (DialogPR) will be higher in caregivers presented with the RS app. Hypothesis 1d (attitudes): Attitudes towards shared reading at home (StimQ-I/T items) will be higher in families provided with the RS app. Specific Aim 2 (exploratory): To explore the effect of providing a smartphone-based app versus a specially designed children's book on screen-based media use. Hypothesis 2a: Reported screen-based media use (ScreenQ) wi
