Filter by:In this proposal a brief web-based cognitive behavioral treatment for insomnia (CBT-I) for children with oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and their parents is iteratively adapted and tested for acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy.
The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to learn about effects and experiences of an internet-based parenting program for parents of children and adolescents with behavioral problems (e.g., aggressive or defiant behavior). The main questions the study aims to answer are: - What are the preliminary effects of the internet-based parenting program? - What is the level of parents' engagement in the parenting program? - How do parents perceive the program? Families will be randomized to a version of an internet-based parenting program with support provided from family guides (psychologists) through chat messages in the program, or to the same internet-based parenting program with additional phone/digital support-meetings. Parents will answer quantitative measurements questions before, during, and after treatment. Parents will also be asked to participate in a qualitative interview after the program. Both within and between group comparisons will be conducted to see if there are trends within each arm and differences between the two types of support.
This study will develop and test whether personalized profiles of children with Disruptive Behaviour Disorder (DBD) and their parents based on important psychological, emotional, and neuropsychological indicators predict their response to child cognitive behavioral treatment and Behavioral Parent Training.
Children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) are at risk for insomnia, arousal dysfunction, mood problems, and noncompliance. Cognitive behavioral treatment for insomnia (CBT-I) holds promise for improving insomnia and related concerns. Telehealth delivery will reduce the burden of in-person sessions, particularly in areas where there is low mental healthcare access. Telehealth CBT-I is efficacious in adults and children but has not been tested in children with ODD. The proposed trial is the next logical step - development and iterative testing of SLEEP-COPE, a brief dyadic telehealth CBT-I for children with ODD and their parents.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to is to test emotion regulation as a moderator of two different treatments for children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). The main question it aims to answer is whether treatment gains be increased when children with ODD receive a treatment congruent with their emotion regulation skill problems. Participants will be divided into two groups based on their response patterns; a high emotion dysregulation group and a low emotion dysregulation group. Within each group, children will then be randomly assigned to either a behavioral parent training intervention or a child directed treatment involving problem solving and emotion regulation skills.
This clinical trial aims to learn about, test, and compare the effect yoga therapy has on improving disruptive behaviors (e.g., oppositional defiant disorder) in Latino preschool children and parent-child interactions. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Can Yoga Therapy improve disruptive behaviors in Latino preschool children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder traits? - Can Yoga Therapy improve parent-child interactions in Latino preschool children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder traits? Participants will: - Complete an initial survey to screen for inclusion and exclusion factors - Fill out two questionnaires and consent form at the first visit - Fill out four questionnaires on orientation day (day 2) - Receive orientation and receive an educational pamphlet on the 2nd and 15th (closing) days - Participate in the 12 Yoga sessions with a weekly call to remind them of their appointment - Fill out a questionnaire on day 8 (6th yoga class) - Fill out five questionnaires on the 15th (closing) - Receive a possible assessment of the child's heartbeat at the 12 intervention sessions (will be randomly selected) with a heart rate variability monitor - Receive an evaluation of the child's sweating at the first visit (orientation) and visit 15 (closing) - Participate in a last visit to finish and offer additional information (day 15; closing) - Participate in a telephone survey three months (day 16) after completing the study. Control group participation will consist of: - Fill a telephone survey to screen for inclusion and exclusion factors - Fill out two questionnaires and informed consent at the first visit - Fill out four questionnaires in the second meeting (day 2 of orientation) - Fill out six questionnaires in the last meeting (day 15; closure) - Receive a 30-45 minute video orientation and psychoeducation (where they will also receive an educational brochure) and a series of exercise recommendations for parent and children on day 2 (orientation) - Receive 12 phone calls (once a week) to remind them to exercise and evaluate if they exercised the week before - Receive an evaluation of the child's sweating at the first visit (orientation) and last visit (day 15; closure) - Receive an evaluation of the child's heart rhythm at the first visit (orientation) and last visit (day 15; closure) - Fill out a telephone survey (day 16; follow-up) three months after completing the study - Receive a call at the end of the study to coordinate the Yoga sessions for parents and children once the intervention group has completed their participation. Researchers will compare Yoga therapy to exercise to see if there is a change in disruptive behaviors and parent-child interactions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how psychotherapy works for children and adolescents aged 8 - 15 with anxiety, depression, trauma, or disruptive behaviour. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is the biobehavioural regulation of negative emotion a transdiagnostic mechanism of treatment response in psychotherapy for children with anxiety, depression, trauma and/or disruptive behaviour? Children and their parents will be randomly assigned to an evidence-based, transdiagnostic treatment (the Modular Approach to Therapy for Children with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and Conduct Problems; MATCH-ADTC) or a waitlist control condition. Participants in both groups will complete a baseline assessment, weekly measures consisting of brief symptom scales and medication tracking, and quarterly assessments every 3 months. Following the intervention/waitlist period, our team will conduct post-test assessments. All assessments, except for the weekly surveys, will consist of symptom scales, clinical interviews, experimental tasks and physiological measures.
This project will develop and evaluate the feasibility of an integrated smart speaker and mobile/web-based application, "FamilyNet" (FN) to assist parents in implementing empirically supported behavioral parenting strategies to promote positive behavior change in their children. The FamilyNet system will help parents to create a positively framed, individualized behavioral plan for their child(ren), and then provide prompts, reminders, and tracking tools to help them effectively implement that plan. Once developed, FamilyNet will be field tested for usability and usefulness with a group of parents who have children ages 12-15 years exhibiting challenging behaviors. Establishing feasibility of this innovative parenting tool will have important implications for harnessing smart speaker and mobile/web technologies to provide parents in-situ support with parenting challenges; parents' effective implementation of empirically supported parenting strategies is likely to increase children's prosocial behaviors and reduce problematic behaviors, thus reducing their risk for long-term behavioral problems.
Children with emotional and behavioural difficulties (EBD) experience disproportionate social, family and academic impairment and have between two to five times increased likelihood of developing an anxiety disorder, mood disorder or other severe mental illness in adolescence and adulthood. There is a close association between parental depression and the emergence and maintenance of childhood EBD that is likely bidirectional. Parents of children with EBD experience disproportionate stress, increasing their risk for depression; yet chronic and untreated parental depression is associated with the emergence of child EBD in the first place. Therefore, designing targeted and effective assessment and treatment for parents of children with EBD that take into account parents' depression is necessary. Of pressing concern, first-line Behavioral Parent Training (BPT) treatments for parents of children with EBD are not tailored to parent's mental health needs, which may be why upwards of 40 percent of parents and children treated in these programs fail to sufficiently benefit. Existing research highlights emotional and cognitive factors that may differentiate depressed parents from non-depressed parents that may be treatment targets to improve outcomes for depressed parents and children. The main aim of the proposed project is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a novel targeted treatment for depressed parents of children with EBD, along with adherence to study protocol. The investigators will use the results of the pilot study to make key modifications to study procedures and the treatment itself to increase the success of a future randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test treatment efficacy. The investigators hypothesize that: 1. Recruitment will be feasible. 2. The intervention will be acceptable, and there will be a high rate of adherence to study protocol.
The efficacy of the computer based Treatment Program for Children with Aggressive Behaviour (Soziales computerunterstütztes Training für Kinder mit aggressivem Verhalten, ScouT) which is a child focused social competence training delivered in an individual format will be evaluated in a randomized controlled trial with children aged 6 to 12 years with peer-related aggressive behaviour.
