Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the intervention using a more rigorous randomized controlled trial design in order to demonstrate its efficacy compared to a wait-list control, thus ensuring that change in behavior does not occur due to the passage of time alone. Using this design will also allow us to improve upon our prior clinical research by facilitating obtainment of post-treatment and follow-up data (as families in the clinical-only service stop attending treatment when behavior improves, and have often not followed-up for booster sessions or measure completion).

Conditions

  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Attention Deficit and Disruptive Behavior Disorders

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Immediate Treatment Group

•The immediate treatment group will fill out the questions at the initial appointment and again after five treatment appointments. They will fill the questions out again at the first follow-up treatment appointment (approximately 4-5 months from the initial appointment), and then at the next (and last) follow-up appointment (approximately 7-8 months). The participants teacher will also be asked to fill out sets of questions.

BEHAVIORAL

Delayed Treatment Group

•The wait list group will fill out the sets of questions again in 1-2 months. The question sets will then be completed again before beginning treatment four months from the initial completion and then again after five treatment appointments. The question sets will then be completed again at the first follow-up treatment appointment (approximately 8-9 months from the initial appointment) and at the next (and last) follow-up appointment (about 11-12 months from the initial appointment).
