Abstract

A randomised cluster effectiveness trial of a parenting intervention in rural Uganda found benefits to child development among children 12–36 months, relevant parenting practices related to stimulation, hygiene and diet, and prevented the worsening of mothers' depressive symptoms. An examination of underlying implementation processes allows researchers and program developers to determine whether the program was implemented as intended and highlight barriers and facilitators that may influence replication and scale-up.
