Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The goal of the current project is to combine two evidence-based treatments for school-aged children with ADHD: Central Executive Training (CET) and Behavioral Parent Training (BPT). CET is a computerized training intervention that improves ADHD symptoms and academic functioning by improving children’s working memory abilities. BPT is a therapeutic intervention that improves family functioning and child ODD symptoms by changing parenting behaviors. Their combined use is expected to provide complementary and additive benefits, particularly if CET is delivered before BPT.
