Brief Summary

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

A school-based behavioral intervention for Mexican youth with attention/behavior concerns (the Collaborative Life Skills Program for Latinos/Familias Unidades Empezando Retos y Tareas para el Éxito \[CLS-FUERTE\]:) will be pilot-tested in a mixed-method investigation with four Mexican elementary schools.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A school-based behavioral intervention for Mexican youth with attention/behavior concerns (the Collaborative Life Skills Program for Latinos/Familias Unidades Empezando Retos y Tareas para el Éxito \[CLS-FUERTE\]:) will be pilot-tested in a mixed-method investigation with four Mexican elementary schools.

Participants will include 24-32 students (n = 6-8 per 4 schools) in participating schools. School personnel will help identify students with and at-risk for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with at least one caretaker and teacher able to participate in the intervention. Students must be in 1st-6th grade at a participating school and must demonstrate clinically significant attention/behavioral concerns and related impairment as rated by caretakers and teachers. Caretakers and teachers must be able to attend program sessions held at the child's school over an approximately 6-week period. Through a school-clustered random assignment design, two schools will be selected to receive CLS-FUERTE during the fall of the 2016-2017 school year and two schools will be selected to receive school services as usual while waiting to receive CLS-FUERTE the spring of the 2016-2017 school year. Caregivers and teachers of students will complete questionnaires about child behavior and family functioning and caregivers will participate in focus groups at 4 time points regardless of treatment assignment: Pre (prior to random assignment), Post 1 (following CLS-FUERTE in the fall cohort), Post 2 (following CLS-FUERTE for in spring cohort), and Follow-up (at the end of the school year).

Feasibility and acceptability of CLS-FUERTE will be examined via participation enrollment, attendance, and engagement ratings and focus group feedback. Improvement in satisfaction with school services and youth outcomes will be examined and estimates of effect sizes will be used to support future scaled-up investigation.

Study Groups

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

CLS-FUERTE

Families will receive the CLS-FUERTE intervention in the fall of the 2016-2017 school year. CLS-FUERTE includes caretaker, child and teacher components implemented during a 6 week period. All content of group sessions will be derived from the manualized CLS-FUERTE treatment protocol developed by the PI and study staff.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

CLS-FUERTE

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The CLS-FUERTE program is an approximately 6-week program and includes school (behavioral consultation with teachers), caretaker (caretaker skills groups), and student (skills groups) components which are integrated via joint teacher, parent, and student meetings and use of integrated behavioral programs in the classroom, on the playground, and at home.

Business as Usual (BAU) Waitlist Control

Families will receive school services as usual while on a waitlist to receive CLS-FUERTE in the spring of the 2016-2017 school year.

Group Type OTHER

CLS-FUERTE

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL
