Filter by:Deficits in executive functioning (EF) disproportionately impact children living in poverty and increase risk for psychopathology, particularly disruptive behavior disorders. This randomized clinical trial seeks to determine whether childhood EF, assessed across neural and behavioral units of analysis, is an experimental therapeutic target that can be directly modified through caregiver participation in the Chicago Parent Program (CPP), if increases in EF predict reduced disruptive behavior trajectories in low-income children over a short-term follow-up period, and identify which CPP-driven parenting skill improvements are the most influential in modifying EF. This work will contribute new knowledge as to whether a cost-efficient parenting intervention, developed for and with low-income families raising young children in poverty, can modify EF, a neural behavioral mechanism implicated in risk for childhood disruptive behavior problems.
Current study will be conducted on the Effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Intervention for Emotional and Behavioural Problems of Students with Visual Impairment. Mindfulness-based Intervention that is Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) will be used in the current study which is adapted and translated in Urdu language; the pilot trial of MBSR will be conducted after adaptation and translation. The present study will be conducted in two phases - First phase of the study would be a cross-sectional survey in which the researcher will conduct a baseline assessment to identify psychosocial predictors such as psychological distress, parental acceptance and rejection, social support, and mindfulness which are associated with the emotional and behavioural problems of students with visual impairment. Further emotional and behavioural problems of the students with visual impairment will identify. - The second phase of the research would be a Randomized Controlled Trial in which students with Visual Impairment who has scored high on psychosocial predictors and emotional & behavioural problems would be randomly assigned to intervention & control groups to get the MBSR training. After the successful training post-assessment would be conducted to check the efficacy of MBSR. - The current study will be conducted in Rawalpindi Islamabad after obtaining permission from the relevant authorities. - Data would be collected from the students with visual impairment and their respective parents.
The aim of GENESIS clinical study is to map the HLA genomic region in the Greek population and evaluate possible correlations with selected underlying diseases.
This double-blind, placebo-controlled study is designed to assess the effectiveness of, MediCane's balanced T3:C3 oil, a medical cannabis oil extracted from MediCane's balanced proprietary strain into GMP-grade olive oil, as an add-on therapy to standard of care (SoC), in reducing agitation and disruptive behaviors in subjects with dementia including probable AD.
The goal of this two-armed randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness of a new, individually tailored, brief behavioral training for teachers of children with behavioral difficulties at school. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Does the brief teacher training reduce the severity of four daily rated target behaviors in specific classroom situations compared to practice as usual (PAU) on the short term? - Does the brief teacher training program reduce the severity of the same four daily rated target behaviors in other classroom situations, behavioral difficulties of the child at school and at home, and the impairment of the child in the school situation and reduce the number of behavioral difficulties of the child at school judged as troublesome by the teacher, and improve the teacher-student relationship quality, teachers' sense of efficacy, and teachers' behavior management strategies compared to practice as usual (PAU) on the short term? - Are short-term improvements maintained at 3 months follow-up? Teachers will be randomly assigned (simple randomization) to (a) three sessions of brief teacher training with PAU, or (b) PAU only. The brief teacher training provides teachers with individually tailored stimulus control and contingency management techniques to treat children's behavioral difficulties in two (bi)weekly training sessions of two hours and a third session of one hour in which the training will be evaluated and maintenance training will be provided. PAU may include any support or treatment as regularly provided by mental health care centers, schools, school collaborations and/or other organizations, except from pharmacological treatment for children's behavioral difficulties and/or behavioral teacher training/support. PAU can also imply that there is no support or treatment.
A 'digital-first' approach is currently under implementation in several Swedish regions. The principles behind implementing an online service as an access way to primary care are based on an expectation that it can make access easier, direct people to appropriate levels of care, and increase both availability of heath care and cost efficiency. However, a recent Swedish report concluded that digital triage in primary care has not been investigated in a clinical real-world setting, including real patients, meaning that the benefits and risks for patients as well as on a system level remain unclear. The aim of this trial is to study the feasibility of a larger trial that will compare digital triage and traditional telephone triage on adherence to triaged health care level, in a randomized controlled study (feasibility study, RCT). The study will recruit a total of 120 patients, of which half will be randomized to telephone triage and half to digital triage.
The objectives of the study are given as under; 1. To examine the efficacy of the Well-being Promotion Program in enhancing subjective well-being, positive affect, life satisfaction and reducing emotional /behavioral problems , negative affect among adolescents with emotional and behavioral problems. 2. To examine the differences in terms of subjective well-being, emotional / behavioral problems , positive / negative affect and life satisfaction between the treatment and control group after intervention. 3. To examine the differences in terms of subjective well-being, emotional / behavioral problems, positive / negative affect and life satisfaction in the intervention group at (T1) before and at (T2) after intervention.
This is an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, single-center study. The main objective of the study is to estimate the prevalence of the main psychiatric disorders and substance abuse disorders among people living in precarious, excluded and/or wandering on Cayenne and its surroundings
The goal of this investigator-initiated, randomized, blinded, 3-armed placebo-controlled, pragmatic, clinical superiority trial is to examine the efficacy of melatonin or low-dose quetiapine versus placebo for treatment of insomnia in patients with psychiatric disorders. The aims of the study are: - To examine the efficacy of melatonin or low-dose quetiapine versus placebo for treatment of insomnia - To examine how melatonin or low-dose quetiapine affects global symptom severity, sleep quality, psychosocial functioning and subjective well-being. Participants will receive six weeks of treatment with either melatonin, quetiapine or placebo followed by a brief taper off.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the effectiveness of a specialisation of multisystemic therapy (MST) for adolescents with severe behavioural problems from families with an intellectual disability (ID; MST-ID). To achieve this goal, a mixed method study design is used. To this end, a quantitative and a qualitatively primary research question are formulated: - Is MST-ID superior, when compared to standard MST, in reducing rule-breaking behaviour of adolescents (quantitative)? - What are the experiences of adolescents and/or parents receiving MST-ID treatment (qualitative)? Participants will be asked to complete two screeners (questionnaires delivered as a verbal interview) with a total duration of approximately 30 minutes. Other data will be collected through Routine Outcome Monitoring questionnaires that are part of standard MST procedures. To this end, five 'time points' have been identified: T0 (start of MST[-ID] treatment), T1 (end of MST[-ID] treatment), T2 (follow-up 6 month after MST[-ID] treatment), T3 (follow-up 12 month after MST[-ID] treatment), and T4 (follow-up 18 month after MST[-ID] treatment). The qualitative method used to gain insight into families' experiences is determined in consultation with the families. To assess the effectiveness of MST-ID, its treatment outcomes will be compared to standard MST treatment outcomes of families with ID.
