We propose addressing these aims by conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that will evaluate the hybrid BPT (Myndlift BPT) compared to a wait-list control group. All participants will receive the Myndlift BPT at either the initial point of randomization or following the wait-list time period. The Myndlift BPT consists of 10, self-directed app-based BPT modules accessible through an online mobile application with each module requiring up to 30 minutes of parent's time. Therapist contact ("parent-therapist consults") will be based on parent need. We anticipate approximately six standard 20-minute therapist contacts during the Myndlift BPT (one prior to the start of the app-based BPT modules, four parent-therapist consults during the app-based BPT modules, and one final parent-therapist consult at the end of app-based BPT modules). Additional parent-therapist consults will be based on parents' needs. In addition, therapists will monitor parent progress and challenges with the app-based BPT modules using a web-based therapist portal. The therapist may initiate additional parent-therapist consults if s/he deems it necessary based on client progress, and contacts can be longer than 20 minutes if needed. All consults are completed through Zoom telehealth platform. Given the self-directed nature of the Myndlift BPT (parents decide how frequently they access the app-based modules of BPT and practice the skills), parent involvement in the intervention will vary slightly in duration. However, based on the literature and routine practice, we anticipate parents completing one module/week in the app-based parent feature for a total of 10 weeks with an additional therapist supported session at the start of the intervention and one at the end of the intervention for a total of 12 weeks of involvement in the Myndlift BPT. The research assessment (see details below) will occur at baseline and at the end of Myndlift BPT. Given that the assessments are linked to participant progress in the Myndlift BPT, participant involvement in the study will also slightly vary, but we anticipate that most parents will complete the assessment during a standard 12-week Myndlift BPT schedule.
Based on alterations in the intestinal microbiota in children with ASD and the high comorbidity between ASD and ADHD, the aim of this project was to assess whether the administration of probiotics with strains related to the production of the neurotransmitters dopamine and GABA had a positive effect on social behavior, attention, and behavior.
The study aims to explore the effectiveness of working memory training and social emotional training for young children with ADHD in Hong Kong. This study will contribute to the current understanding of the alternative treatments for ADHD, and hopefully help to mobilize more resources to be dedicated to the support of children with ADHD. The programme includes the following components: Children participating in this study will be randomly allocated into experimental group - recieving working memory training, active control group - receiving social-emotional training, and waitlist control group. All participants will complete a 5-week online training using a digital device at home, three times a week, each training session lasts for about 15 minutes. Moreover, children's cognitive abilities and academic performance will be assessed prior to the intervention, and immediately after the 5-week training. Each assessment session lasts for about 45 minutes. Parents will also be asked to fill out a questionnaire on children's behaviours at home and school prior to and after the 5-week program. It takes about no more than 10 minutes. All assessments will be conducted at the laboratory at the University of Hong Kong. Children's working memory, time perception, ADHD symptoms, and early academic performance will be measured before and after training, and the between-group performance will be compared to examine the training effects.
"Braining" is a clinical method for physical exercise as adjunctive therapy in psychiatric care. The core components are personnel-led group training sessions and motivating contact with psychiatric staff, as well as measurement and evaluation before and after the training period of 12 weeks. Objective. This study aims to describe the clinical and demographic variables in the population of patients who participated in Braining 2017-2020, investigate the feasibility of Braining, and analyse perceived short-term effects and side effects of Braining regarding psychiatric and somatic symptoms. Method. The project is a retrospective, descriptive study. Patients at Psykiatri Sydväst (PSV, Psychiatric Clinic Psychiatry Southwest, Stockholm) who participated in Braining 2017-2020 during at least 3 training sessions, will be asked for inclusion. Medical and demographic data, as well as patient treatment evaluations, are already available in medical records. Additionally, an extended 2-year long-term follow-up will be carried out. This includes blood and hair sample, physical examination as well as qualitative interviews with a representative subgroup.
This randomised, placebo controlled trial explores the effects of supplementation with a probiotic drink (kefir) in children diagnosed with ADHD on behaviour, sleep, attention and the gut microbiome.
This study evaluates the feasibility and preliminary impacts of a new parenting program consisting of a series of educational videos, delivered via a popular texting platform. For this pilot project, the program content is focused on teaching parents strategies to better manage one of the commonly reported challenges that children face, a transition to a non-preferred activity. Parents with young children demonstrating behavior consistent with ADHD and experiencing difficulties with daily transition routines are invited to participate in the study.
The goal of the study is to conduct a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the impact of the Classroom Behavior Support Program (CBS; a multi-component, individually-tailored teacher consultation program) on teachers' classroom management practices (universal and targeted) and resulting student behavioral and educational outcomes relative to a best practices comparison consultation condition.
The purpose of this study is to test whether a single session of brain stimulation (called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation [rTMS]) can improve the brain activity underlying 'working memory.' Working memory is the ability to hold information 'in mind' to complete daily activities. This study involves teenagers with ADHD as well as healthy young adults. It is funded by The COBRE Center for Neuromodulation (CCN) at Butler Hospital (Pilot Project)
The objective of this clinical trial is to examine whether non-invasive brain stimulation can modulate dysfunctional brain dynamics underlying adolescent ADHD to subsequently improve clinical symptoms.
