Clinical Trial Summary

The study targets children with diagnosed ADHD and aims to (1) develop a social virtual reality-based intervention, (2) investigate its effects on improving the social skills and executive functioning of inhibitions, emotional control and attention of the children compared to traditional social skills training and (3) evaluate the subjects acceptability and compliance with social VR training for enhancing social interaction skills. It is hypothesised that the social interaction skills of the participants in the social VR training group are likely to perform better than those in the traditional social skills training group. Participants in the waitlist control group will receive no change in social interaction skills compared with the two intervention groups.


Clinical Trial Description

The study will be a three-arm randomised controlled trial comparing the effects of social VR-based intervention with traditional social skills training on social skills and executive functioning of children with ADHD. Participants in the social VR intervention group and traditional social skill training group will receive 12 training sessions for 3 weeks (4 sessions per week), and participants in the waitlist control group will be asked to retain their usual lifestyles for 3 weeks. ;
