Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Aims:
* To determine the feasibility (in terms of rates of recruitment, retention, and attendance), and acceptability of the intervention
* To examine the effects of the dyadic video-assisted gamified music breathing therapy on dyads' resilience, children's emotional and behavioral symptoms, parents' parenting stress, and psychological distress.
Hypotheses:
It is hypothesized that compared with dyads in the control group, those who receive the dyadic video-assisted gamified music breathing therapy will report the following outcomes: higher levels of dyads' resilience, reduced children's emotional and behavioral symptoms, lower levels of parents' parenting stress and psychological distress at immediately post-intervention (i.e., the 6-week follow-up).

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Dyadic video-assisted gamified group-based music breathing therapy
Parent-child dyads in the intervention group will receive video-assisted gamified music breathing therapy comprising 75-minute weekly sessions (first sessions: parents only; reminding 5 sessions: parent-child dyads) delivered face-to-face by a qualified music breathing practitioner with the aid of animations (mainly for sessions involving children) for 6 weeks. The music breathing therapy comprises four breathing phases, namely "Discovery Breathing", "Triangular Breathing", "Silent Breathing", and "Music Breathing".
Dyadic video-assisted gamified group-based music breathing therapy
Dyadic video-assisted gamified music breathing therapy comprising six 75-min weekly sessions delivered in a group size of 6-8 (first sessions: parents only; reminding 5 sessions: parent-child dyads).
Online educational modules
Parent-child dyads in the control group will receive weekly online educational modules via email for 6 weeks. Such information will include definition, etiology, risk factors, signs and symptoms, and therapeutic interventions (pharmacological and nonpharmacological), its complications, and how to manage it.
Online educational modules
Six weekly educational modules on ADHD and its management via email.
