Which changes in caregiver behavior did the trials actually measure?
Comparing specific parenting changes across trials helps separate responses to behavior from assumptions about a child’s intentions.
Who was studied?
Individual data from 19 randomized parenting trials including 1,720 children with ADHD.
Age / stage: Childhood
Read with three questions
- Which parenting measures could the reviewers harmonize across the randomized trials?
- How much variation across studies remains after the results are combined?
- Which changes in caregiver behavior did the trials actually measure?
Keep the limits in view
The estimate combines studies with different measures and samples. A pooled finding does not identify the result to expect for a particular family.
