Summary

The purpose of this study is to field pre-test an implementation strategy resource package that aims to support caregivers in using behavioral interventions for children with hyperactive, inattentive, or impulsive behaviors. Enrolled caregivers will be assigned to use the resource package with their children. The research team will collect quantitative and qualitative data regarding acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility, in preparation for a randomized pilot study.

Detailed description

Evidence-based interventions for children with or at-risk for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) include antecedent- and consequence- based behavioral interventions in both the classroom and home settings as well as effective home-school communication approaches. Schools are a promising setting in which to provide early intervention for mental health challenges and to increase access to mental health care. Furthermore, stronger integration between home- and school- based interventions has the potential to meaningfully improve child outcomes. However, there are substantial implementation challenges to caregivers' use of these evidence-based interventions. This study aims to field pre-test an implementation strategy resource package to support caregivers in using evidence-based behavioral interventions for children with hyperactive, inattentive, or impulsive behaviors. After an initial iterative process of developing the resource package, enrolled caregivers will use the resource package with their children in a single-arm study, for the purpose of assessing initial implementation outcomes and making final adjustments to the resource package.
