Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of a family conflict intervention in Chinese New Arrival families in Hong Kong. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the family conflict intervention group more effective to improve adaptive parent-child conflict resolution skills compared to the control group? * Is the family conflict intervention group more effective to reduce parent-child conflicts compared to the control group? * Is the family conflict intervention group more effective to improve adaptive parental conflict resolution skills compared to the control group? * Is the family conflict intervention group more effective to enhance family harmony compared to the control group? * Is the family conflict intervention group more effective to enhance family resilience compared to the control group? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups: the family conflict intervention group and the handcraft-making group. For each group, parents will participate in 3 sessions independently, children will participate in 2 sessions independently, and parents and children will jointly participate in 1 session. Each session takes around 2 hours, and it takes 4 weeks to complete the full intervention. The family conflict intervention sessions include an introduction to the occurrence of family conflicts, communication skills training to prevent and address conflicts, and role play to practice the skills, etc. Researchers will compare the family conflict intervention group and the handcraft-making group to see if the family conflict intervention group is effective in promoting conflict resolution skills, reducing family conflicts, and enhancing family resilience.
