Abstract
Objectives
To evaluate the efficacy of the Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA) to improve attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) behaviors in children.
Methods
In 2017, we conducted a trial among parents (n = 104) with children ages 6–8 years diagnosed with ADHD/at risk for a diagnosis. Participants were randomly selected, but not blinded, to the immediate (NHA) or delayed (control) group. The NHA training was held online over 6 weeks.
Results
The NHA group (−7.0 ± 8.1), but not the control group (0.2 ± 6.6), reported a decrease in inattention (p < .001). The NHA group (−7.9 ± 9.3), but not the control group (−0.5 ± 7.3), reported a decrease in hyperactivity/impulsivity (p < .001).
Conclusions
The study provides preliminary data of the NHA's potential to improve ADHD related behaviors.
