简要总结
The pilot study will be a one group open-label treatment program and will be used to refine a parent-based behavioral treatment enhanced with executive-function training (PBT-EF) for children with comorbid overweight or obesity and Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
详细描述
The currently recommended treatment for children with overweight or obesity (OW/OB), family-based behavioral treatment (FBT), results in sustained weight loss for only 1/3 of children. Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders in children and is characterized by difficulties in Executive Function (EF). Substantial research suggests higher rates of OW/OB in children with ADHD; thus, children with OW/OB and ADHD are likely to have greater difficulties with EF and achieving success in FBT. The proposed study aims to develop a parent-based behavioral treatment enhanced with EF training (PBT-EF) to improve treatment outcomes for children with comorbid OW/OB and ADHD. The treatment will be administered to parents in 18 group sessions over 5 months. Parents and children will be assessed at baseline, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up. Assessments will include body mass index (BMI), assessments of executive function, and behavioral questionnaires. This study could provide a novel model to treat OW/OB in children with ADHD, and could inform clinical decision making regarding obesity treatment.

研究组 & 干预措施
Executive Function-Enhanced Parent-Based Behavioral Treatment (PBT-EF)
PBT-EF will integrate executive function training with family-based behavioral treatment (FBT) for obesity, the gold-standard behavioral treatment for childhood obesity. PBT-EF will include self-monitoring, calorie reduction, and dietary and physical activity recommendations in addition to planning, organization, and problem-solving skills.
干预措施: PBT-EF (Behavioral)
