Acute Effects of Parent Stimulant Medication Versus Behavioral Parent Training on Mothers' ADHD, Parenting Behavior, and At-Risk Children.

Summary

We hypothesize that successfully treating maternal Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) will have a beneficial effect that extends to the child. We believe that multi-component interventions combining maternal stimulant medication, Lisdexamfetamine (LDX), and Behavioral Parent Training (BPT) will improve parenting, maternal, and child outcomes. In terms of improved parenting, we hypothesize that some mothers may respond well to LDX or BPT alone and therefore may not require multi-modal treatment, whereas others may benefit most from multi-modal treatment
