Both the mothers and fathers were included in the psychoeducation program for parents which was delivered in two sessions per week. The study was evaluated before the first session, after the second session and at the 6th month. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form and Caregiver Stress Scale (CSS).

详细描述
Psychoeducation given to the parents of the children with ADHD reduce parental stress, but these reduces are not proven for parents of the children with ADHD. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of psychoeducation on the stress levels of parents of children with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This was a randomised controlled study and applied the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement. A total of 172 parents (experimental group: 86, control group: 86) participated in the study, which was planned as an experimental (randomized controlled, with pre-test-post-test control group, follow-up) study. Both the mothers and fathers were included in the psychoeducation program for parents which was delivered in two sessions per week. The study was evaluated before the first session, after the second session and at the 6th month. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form and Caregiver Stress Scale (CSS). Mean, standard deviation, number and percentage, minimum, maximum, homogeneity tests and the chi-square test were used for data analysis. The mean scores obtained from the scales before and after the training were compared with the paired-t test and student t test between the groups. There was no significant difference between the mean pre-test scores of the parents in the experimental and control groups on the whole CSS (p<0.005). Significant differences were found between the scores before and after the psychoeducation, and their six-month follow-up scores (p<0.001). There were significant differences between the pre- and post-test scores, pre-test scores and six-month follow-up scores, and post-test scores and six-month follow-up scores of the parents in the experimental group according to the in-group comparisons (p>0.05). It was determined that psychoeducation given to parents of children with ADHD reduced parental stress.
