Clinical trials

The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a health promotion intervention for Ultra-Orthodox Jewish mothers of children with ADHD. This study will examine the impact of a culturally tailored group-based intervention aimed at reducing stress, enhancing health, and improving the well-being of mothers. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Is the intervention feasible for mothers to participate? 2. Does the intervention improve maternal knowledge about ADHD and reduce stigma? 3. Does it help reduce maternal stress and enhance self-care practices? Participants include: Mothers: Ultra-Orthodox Jewish mothers with a child (ages 6-12) diagnosed with ADHD and no other major health conditions in the family (other than ADHD). Educators: School educators with at least 5 years of experience teaching children with ADHD in the Ultra-Orthodox community. What participation involves: Mothers will attend six weekly teletherapy group sessions, with 6-8 mothers per group. They will complete questionnaires before and after the intervention (approximately 30 minutes each) and participate in a 90-minute remote focus group to provide feedback on the program. Educators will attend a single teletherapy group session (90 minutes) during the program (session 5) and participate in a 90-minute remote interview to provide feedback on the program.
