Combined Cognitive Remediation and Behavioral Intervention for Treatment of ADHD
The objective of this study is to evaluate a novel sequenced combination of a promising,
computerized cognitive training program targeting working memory (WM) deficits in children
with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in combination with behavioral parent
training, a well-established, evidence-based intervention for ADHD.
The combined active intervention, compared to the combined control intervention will result
in improvement in primary psychosocial (i.e., parent/teacher reported child impairment;
parental stress; parenting behavior; and observed child academic achievement) and
psychiatric (parent/teacher rated ADHD, ODD, and CD symptoms; observed activity level and
attention) outcomes at post-treatment and follow up assessment, with the combined active
intervention resulting in greater improvements in these outcomes.
Inclusion Criteria:
