The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sustained effects of a web-based program for parents of adolescents designed to help them engage in media mediation and high-quality parent-adolescent communication about sex, relationships, and media. A randomized control trial was conducted with parent-adolescent pairs ( n =375 pairs). Adolescents were in 7 th -9 th  grade. Pairs were randomly assigned to either the intervention  Media Aware Parent  or active control (medically accurate adolescent sexual health information). This study analyzed the impact of  Media Aware Parent  6 months after pretest. Several outcomes significant at one-month posttest were sustained at 6 months, including enhanced parents’ media-related cognitions (e.g. media skepticism) and adolescent awareness of family media rules. Parents’ reports of restrictive media mediation and adolescents’ reports of their parent engaging in supportive parenting, which were not significant at posttest, emerged as significant at 6 months, signifying that the program resulted in changes in parent behavior and the parent-adolescent relationship over time. The impact of the program on parent-adolescent communication quality and adolescent sexual health and media-related outcomes diminished over time, suggesting the need for program boosters to encourage parents to continue engaging in high-quality conversations with their adolescent children about sex, relationships, and media.
