OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Early Identification of Parental Burnout: Using IRT in Developing Screening Tools
W2, 17/10/22
Dr. Matilda Sorkkila, Dept. of Psychology, University of Jyväskylä, Finland
Early Identification of Parental Burnout: Using IRT in Developing Screening Tools.
Parental burnout is a recently recognized worldwide phenomenon that results from overwhelming parenting stress. Since parental burnout can have serious consequences to families, and especially to children, early identification and prevention of the phenomenon is crucial. During this presentation, I will introduce a screening tool for parental burnout, that is Brief Parental Burnout scale (BPBs), that we developed for early identification of parental burnout in child healthcare settings. The focus will be both theoretical and methodological, as I will first introduce parental burnout as a phenomenon, and next describe how Item Response Theory Graded Response Model was used to select optimal five items from a gold standard scale to assess parental burnout, Parental Burnout Assessment (PBA), in a sample of 1725 Finnish parents. I will, furthermore, explain how the scale was validated in two separate samples. Finally, practical applicability of the scale in child healthcare centers will be critically discussed.
