=== Parent training ===
Parent psychosocial health can have a significant impact on the parent-child relationship. Group-based [[Parent education program|parent training and education programs]] have proven to be effective at improving short-term psychosocial well-being for parents. There are many different types of training parents can take to support their parenting skills. Some groups include Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Parents Management Training (PMT), Positive Parenting Program (Triple P), The Incredible Years, and Behavioral and Emotional Skills Training (BEST).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Choosing a Parent Training Program |url=https://childmind.org/article/choosing-a-parent-training-program/ |access-date=2022-07-07 |website=Child Mind Institute |language=en-us}}</ref> PCIT works with both parents and children in teaching skills to interact more positively and productive. PMT is focused for children aged 3–13, in which parents are the main trainee. They are taught skills to help deal with challenging behaviors from their children. Triple P focus on equipping parents with the information they need to increase confidence and self-sufficiency in managing their children's behavior. The Incredible Years focuses in age infancy-age 12, in which they are broken into small-group-based training in different areas. BEST introduces effective behavior management techniques in one day rather than over the course of a few weeks. Courses are offered to families based on effective training to support additional needs, behavioral guidelines, communication and many others to give guidance throughout learning how to be a parent.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Barlow|first1=Jane |last2=Smailagic |first2=Nadja |last3=Huband|first3=Nick|last4=Roloff|first4=Verena|last5=Bennett|first5=Cathy|date=2014-05-17|title=Group-based parent training programmes for improving parental psychosocial health |journal=The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews|volume=2014 |issue=5 |pages=CD002020 |doi=10.1002/14651858.CD002020.pub4 |issn=1469-493X|pmid=24838729|pmc=10898322 |url=https://www.drugsandalcohol.ie/18691/1/Campbell_Barlow_Parental_Psychosocial_Health_Review.pdf}}</ref>

In research on parenting, [[Jay Belsky]]'s process of parenting model is widely used to assess how a parent's well-being such as their work and social life impacts parenting in early childhood. Belsky's model has been used to show how children, parents, and extended families can thrive. The model has been associated with how social support can affect parenting.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Taraban |first1=Lindsay |last2=Shaw |first2=Daniel S. |date=2018-06-01 |title=Parenting in context: Revisiting Belsky's classic process of parenting model in early childhood |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S027322971730031X |journal=Developmental Review |volume=48 |pages=55–81 |doi=10.1016/j.dr.2018.03.006 |issn=0273-2297}}</ref> Research has also found how the parents' cognitions can affect how a child is raised and how supportive a parent can be. If a parents' cognitions are more positive, then a child can be raised more supportively which can lead the child to have positive self-perceptions.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Bornstein |first1=Marc H. |last2=Putnick |first2=Diane L. |last3=Suwalsky |first3=Joan T.
