The PACT (Parents and Children Together) Study was a six-week experimental intervention developed for English- and Spanishspeaking parents with children enrolled in Head Start programs in Chicago. Participating parents borrowed an electronic tablet with an application called A Story Before Bed, a recordable storybook app with over 500 books in its digital library. The parents who were randomly assigned to the experimental group set weekly goals for the amount of time they intended to spend reading a book from the digital library to their children. They received daily text message reminders of their goals. At the end of each week, experimental group parents received visual feedback on the actual time they spent reading in the prior week via a goal-setting app on the tablet. Experimental group parents received recognition for meeting their time-use goals in two ways: personally on the tablet and among their peers via group text messaging. Control group parents received the tablet with A Story Before Bed and instructions for how to use it, but none of the behavioral “nudges” (i.e., the goal setting, text message reminders, feedback, or recognition). A total of 169 parents participated in the PACT intervention.<br><br><br>DOI:10.3368/jhr.54.4.0617.8835R
