Attention-Deficit-Disordered Children, Attention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity
Conditions
Brief summary
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) with or without Hyperactivity/Impulsivity (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental syndrome that has a lasting impact on the child's daily lifestyle and leads to functional impairment. ADHD is recognized as the most common psychiatry disorder in children and it's considered as a public health problem. ADHD is frequently associated with a new diagnostic entity Disruptive Disorder with Emotional dysregulation . This disorder is characterized by crisis of anger with verbal or physical aggression, intensity disproportionate to the context and developmental age. Few studies have examined the elements of emotional dysregulation in ADHD in children. Many studies have shown the interest of CBT in multimodal management of ADHD symptoms and associated disorders. The main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of a Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Parent/Child program versus a body mediation focused on emotional and behaviorial aspects in ADD children aged 7-13 years with dimensional emotional dysregulation at 6 months after intervention. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of this program, at short-term (at the end of CBT) and at 6 months after intervention, on socio-communicative capacities, quality of life, children's functioning and parental stress. It's a biomedical research, prospective, controlled, randomized, monocentric, two parallels, with an evaluation of the criteria of blind judgment.
