Brief Summary

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

Behavioral parent training is an evidence-based treatment for ADHD. The intervention can be implemented individually, or in groups. Currently, group-based parent training programs require considerable coordination, including ascertainment of a large physical space, the coordination of all families traveling to the same location at the same time, and the require for the provision of childcare. Innovations in online connectivity and ease of implementation of online support applications (e.g., Zoom) may reduce these barriers. However, it is necessary to investigate the feasibility and promise of the online approach to ensure it supports parents effectively.

Detailed Description

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

This study will utilize a pre-post, open trial design as the primary aim is to investigate feasibility. Approximately sixty parents will complete prepost ratings of parenting behaviors and measures of child functioning. They will also complete post treatment measures of satisfaction and open-ended questions about feasibility and suggestions for future iterations of the approach. Process measures will include data collection related to attendance and engagement in the activities. Risks include breach of confidentiality and a lack of effectiveness of the intervention for the child's presenting problems. Benefits include the parent receiving an effective intervention.
