Conflict of Interest

Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

Triple P International

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Payment for services (e.g., consulting fees, honoraria, paid authorship)

In the case of the referenced grant, the Triple P intervention is one of several tools brought to bear on the complex question of how to effectively treat substance-abusing parents who have difficulties associated with child maltreatment Thus, the substance-abuse treatment (which is not a Triple P intervention) is the primary focus of the grant. A secondary focus is on how the substance-abuse treatment interacts with an evidence-based parenting intervention--with the Triple P intervention chosen as an example of the whole class of e-b parenting interventions. Triple P is a well-established intervention with over 140 outcome studies associated with it. This project potentially represents only a small contribution to an already large amount of existing data related to Triple P; therefore, it is unlikely that Dr. Prinz financial interest in TPI could have any direct and significant impact on this research study.

Listed Research Project
Concurrent Treatment of Substance Abuse and Child Maltreatment

This project addresses a serious and all-too-frequent public health problem of families involved with the child protective services system, where there is the co-occurrence of child maltreatment and caregiver substance abuse. At the conclusion of this project, we will know how well the combination of state-of-the-art treatments for substance abuse and child maltreatment impacts families in the child welfare system regarding parental substance abuse, parenting, and recurring child abuse, and what the effects are on promoting positive child adjustment, reducing risky behaviors for HIV, and improving quality of life for children and parents.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
