This study found the Cognitive Functional Remote Group intervention feasible for adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Participants reported high satisfaction and improvements in quality of life, with gains in self-awareness and strategy acquisition.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Psychiatry
- Rehabilitation Science
Background:
- Adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often experience executive functioning deficits and reduced quality of life.
- Existing interventions may not fully address the complex needs of adults with ADHD in a remote setting.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the feasibility of a Cognitive Functional Remote Group intervention for adults diagnosed with ADHD.
- To explore participant experiences and satisfaction with a telerehabilitation group therapy format.
Main Methods:
- A mixed-method feasibility study involving five adults with ADHD.
- Participants engaged in 16 weekly remote (Zoom) sessions of the Cognitive Functional Remote Group intervention.
Main Results:
- High recruitment rates and participant interest were observed.
- All participants completed the intervention with moderate to high satisfaction.
- Quantitative data showed significant improvements in quality of life and some gains in executive functioning.
- Qualitative analysis revealed themes of identity development, occupation-based learning of strategies, and feedback on the remote format.
Conclusions:
- The Cognitive Functional Remote Group intervention is feasible for adults with ADHD.
- The intervention demonstrates potential for improving quality of life and fostering self-awareness and strategy acquisition within a telerehabilitation context.
- Further controlled research is recommended to validate these findings.
