NCT ID: NCT03382080 Completed - Mental Health Clinical Trials

A School-based Intervention Project to Increase Completion of Upper Secondary School in Norway

COMPLETE
Start date: February 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Drop out from upper secondary school represents a risk for the future health and wellbeing of young people. Strengthening of psychosocial aspects of the learning environment may be an effective strategy to promote completion of upper secondary school. The COMPLETE study is a school based cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluating two school-based interventions, namely the Dream School Program (DSP) and the Mental Health Support Team (MHST) among 1st grade upper secondary school students in four counties in Norway. The interventions aim to improve psychosocial learning environments and subsequently school achievements and decrease drop-out and absence. Specifically, the COMPLETE study will 1. Evaluate whether the DSP alone 1. increases completion 2. increases presence 3. improves school achievements 4. improves mental health and wellbeing 2. Evaluate whether the DSP and the MHST combined 1. increase completion 2. increase presence 3. improve school achievements 4. improve mental health and wellbeing The COMPLETE study will also evaluate the effect of the DSP and MHST combined and the DSP alone against secondary outcomes of school satisfaction and loneliness. 3. Evaluate through a process evaluation whether the interventions were implemented in line with guidelines for each of the interventions, and whether the degree of program fidelity has influenced the effect of the interventions on the primary and secondary outcomes.

NCT ID: NCT02226445 Completed - Clinical trials for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Treatment Drop-out and Missed Appointments Among Adults With ADHD

Start date: September 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The investigators knowledge of factors associated with treatment drop-out and missed appointments among adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) within a naturalistic, clinical setting is very limited. Drop-out rates among adult ADHD patients in randomised controlled trials (RCT´s) have been reported to be 26.6% - 50%, and similar rates are reported in two naturalistic studies of medication adherence. Based on proposed hypotheses that past behaviour patterns are more predictive of current behaviours of treatment drop-out and missed appointments than are sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, the aim of the present study is to examine the associations of 1) sociodemographic variables, 2) clinical variables, 3) risk-taking behaviour 4) educational and occupational instability and 5) behaviours during primary/lower secondary school with treatment drop-out and number of missed appointments. The target group of the study consists of all patients who initiates assessment at the adult ADHD Clinic at Regional Psychiatric Services West, Herning, Central Denmark Region in the period from September 1, 2010 to September 1, 2011. The patients are referred to this Clinic from general practitioners and specialised psychiatric authorities. The investigators study is designed as an observational, cohort study in which the patients are offered medical and non-manualised psychosocial treatment as it is usually offered in this tertiary ADHD Clinic from which the data are collected. Data regarding sociodemography, clinical symptoms and impairments, risk-taking behaviour, educational and occupational instability and behaviours during primary/lower secondary school are collected using a semistructured protocol. In the investigators study the investigators define treatment drop-out as premature termination of ongoing treatment, without any prior clinical or agreed resolution. No standardized definition of treatment drop-out is used through out the literature of adherence to treatment among patients in the psychiatric care system.
