Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A randomized trial investigating if effects of a goal-directed task oriented intervention is influenced by who takes the decision and establishes the goal (the child or the parent) and whether establishing a goal per se influence performance and goal-achievement. The main hypothesis are that children's participation in the goal-setting process would positively influence goal achievement, children's self-identified goals would be achievable and that both groups would achieve goals that were the target of a goal-directed intervention.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Child-goal

The children will receive goal- directed task oriented interventions based on goals identified by the children themselves, using the Swedish version of the Perceived Efficacy and Goal Setting System (PEGS).

A PEGS interview will be performed with the children. The children identifies tasks they find difficult to perform and prioritize three tasks, they want to perform better, as goals for intervention.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

child-goal

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The 8-week goal-directed intervention include completing a daily home program and a weekly follow-up session with the child's occupational therapist.

The parents are responsible for the day to day practice and are encouraged to let the children practice daily in their natural environment.

The home-programs focus on enhancing the agreed upon goal specific task performance. They include structured practice of tasks and adaptations and modifications of the environment and the tasks.

The weekly sessions with the occupational therapist are meant to sustain motivation, follow-up on progress, adjust the home program for the coming week and support parents in how to carry out the daily interventions.

Parent-goal

The children will receive goal- directed task oriented interventions based on goals identified by the parents using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM).

Using the COPM interview technique, the parents are encouraged to talk about an ordinary day to identify occupational performance issues their child is not able to perform. Identified performance issues are rated for importance and the parents selects the three most important issues as goals for intervention.
