Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this single-case study is to pilot and evaluate a new psychological intervention (SKILLS-ER) targeting emotion regulation in adolescents with ADHD. Participants (n=9; 13-18 years of age) and their parents will partake in the intervention consisting of a total of eight sessions.


Clinical Trial Description

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) results in functional impairment across several life domains and is associated with high comorbidity rates and negative long-term outcomes. For adolescents with ADHD, emotional dysregulation constitute an increasing health problem. The ability to regulate one's emotions has been suggested as a major candidate for transdiagnostic sources of risk and/or resilience. A sample of adolescents (n=9; 13-18 years of age) with ADHD and emotion dysregulation will participate in an emotion regulation intervention (SKILLS-ER) in order to evaluate feasibility, potential effectiveness and to detect mechanisms that could strengthen adaptive regulation skills. The emotion regulation programme will include eight weekly sessions, and although primarily directed towards the adolescent, parents will be invited and participate in some sessions. The researchers will apply a single-case multiple baseline design across participants with repeated measurements and pre-intervention baselines at different lengths (5, 6 and 7 weeks) to which participants are randomized. The researchers will analyze the data with a combination of visual and quantitative analyses, see study protocol and statistical analysis plan. ;
