This study investigates the effects of parenting interventions on improving the emotion regulation and functioning of the children with AD/HD as well as their parents' parenting practices and psychological well-being. Two kinds of parenting interventions are selected in this study, namely the Mindful Parenting and Tuning in to Kids programs. The value of this project lies in empowering parents through parenting techniques which they can use both for themselves and for their daily interactions with children. It is hoped to alleviate their stress from the role of parenting children with special needs, which may in turn lead to their better psychological well-being and greater harmony in the families.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder. Gut microbiome dysbiosis may be associated with the pathophysiology of ADHD. Investigators previously found the relative abundance of Sutterella stercoricanis were increased and Bifidobacterium bifidum were decreased in the ADHD group. Investigators hypothesize that ADHD patients receiving supplementary Bifidobacterium bifidum (Bf-688) is able to increase the proportion of Bf-688; inhibit the proportion of Sutterella; and improve ADHD symptoms.
In the Netherlands, two forms of amphetamines are available for the treatment of ADHD in adults; dexamfetamine (Tentin) and lisdexamfetamine (Elvanse) and both belong to regular and primary care pharmacotherapy. Both drugs contain exactly the same substance dexamfetamine and it would be expected that the effects on the symptoms of ADHD and the duration of action should be comparable. Previous studies and daily practice have reported different effects and duration of action of both, however. In this study the investigators want to investigate this difference by giving both drugs to the same patient, objectify the blood concentrations, objective and subjective effects and hope to be able to further optimize the treatment for ADHD with amphetamines.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a customized head mold for reducing head motion during MRI scanning in young children.
This study will assess whether or not a novel executive working memory training intervention for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder can engage frontoparietal brain network treatment targets and behavioral performance.
The primary aim of this study is to examine the efficacy of a self-guided Internet-delivered intervention for coping with ADHD. The secondary aim is to investigate the effects of individual adaptation of the intervention on adherence, satisfaction and clinical outcomes.
Up to 72% of adolescents with ADHD portray sleep problems. The most common sleep difficulties in adolescents with ADHD are initial insomnia, nocturnal awakenings, non-restorative or restless sleep. These difficulties seem to be causally related to increased ADHD symptom impairment, oppositional and depressive symptomatology, and functional impairments in daily life, resulting in a vicious circle of sleep problems and impairment. Thus, reducing sleep problems is an important intervention target. However, to date there is no evidence-based cognitive behavioral sleep treatment available. Sleep-focused treatments need adaptation towards this developmental phase/disorder for effectiveness, as ADHD and sleep problems are bi-directional. Therefore, a blended treatment targeting the core deficits integrating motivational interviewing, planning skills and sleep interventions is needed. Thus, the aim of this project is testing the short and 3 months follow-up effectiveness of the blended CBT sleep intervention in adolescents with ADHD.
This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo- and active-controlled 4 period, 4 way crossover study to assess the intranasal abuse potential of manipulated ADAIR formulation in nondependent, recreational stimulant users. The study will consist of an outpatient Screening Visit, an in clinic Qualification Phase, an in-clinic Treatment Phase, and an outpatient Follow-Up visit.
Behavioral parent training is an evidence-based treatment for ADHD. The intervention can be implemented individually, or in groups. Currently, group-based parent training programs require considerable coordination, including ascertainment of a large physical space, the coordination of all families traveling to the same location at the same time, and the require for the provision of childcare. Innovations in online connectivity and ease of implementation of online support applications (e.g., Zoom) may reduce these barriers. However, it is necessary to investigate the feasibility and promise of the online approach to ensure it supports parents effectively.
