简要总结
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that begins in childhood and can persist throughout adolescence and adulthood. ADHD affects persistently about 5% of children and adolescents and about 2.5% of adults worldwide. The cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has proven to be effective in significantly reducing ADHD-symptoms, maintaining the effects during follow-up.
The aim of this study is to develop and validate a psychological treatment program for adult ADHD-patients consisting of six sessions based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and to study the effectiveness of the developed program in short and long term.
A total of 90 patients will be randomized to two treatment groups (1:1). One group will receive 12 sessions of CBT and the other group six sessions of brief CBT.
It is expected that the short-term effectiveness of a CBT psychological treatment program of six group sessions will be the same as the response to the CBT psychological treatment program of twelve group sessions in adult ADHD-patients with stable drug treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in the Clinical Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S)
时间窗: In the 6 sessions group: at 6 weeks, at 12 weeks and at 24 weeks.In 12 session group: at 12 weeks, at 24 weeks and at 36 weeks.
Change in the ADHD-Rating Scale (ADHD-RS)
时间窗: In the 6 sessions group: at 6 weeks, at 12 weeks and at 24 weeks.In 12 session group: at 12 weeks, at 24 weeks and at 36 weeks.
The ADHD-RS is a 18-items scale self-report version for assessing symptoms for ADHD DSM-IV. It consists of a subscale of inattention (IN, 9-items), another of hyperactivity/impulsivity (H / I, 9-items) and the total (TOT, 18-items). The interviewees are asked about the frequency of the symptoms over the past 6 months. Each item is scored from 0 to 3 points, and the highest scores indicates more severe symptomatology of ADHD.
