The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a 2-week therapeutic summer day camp for children with ADHD, which included a social skills training program and parent psychoeducation and training program. This was an open-label, nonrandomized Phase I Clinical Intervention Trial.
Parents completed the Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale (WFIRS) and the Conners' Global Index-Parent Version (CGI-P), and children completed the Index of Peer Relations (IPR). All questionnaires were completed prior to the camp and 3 weeks after starting school. A total of 33 children who attended the camp were compared with a group of 15 children with ADHD who did not attend camp.
CGI-P, IPR, and WFIRS significantly improved in the group that attended the camp but not in the control group. Effect sizes were between 0.7 and 1.6.
The therapeutic summer day camp is effective in improving ADHD symptoms, peer relationships, and overall functioning of children.
本研究旨在评估为期两周的 ADHD 儿童治疗性夏令营的效果，该夏令营包括社交技能培训计划和家长心理教育及培训计划。这是一项开放性、非随机的 I 期临床干预试验。
父母填写 Weiss 功能障碍评定量表（WFIRS）和 Conners 全球指数-家长版本（CGI-P），孩子填写同伴关系指数（IPR）。所有问卷均在开营前和开学后 3 周完成。参加夏令营的 33 名儿童与未参加夏令营的 15 名 ADHD 儿童进行比较。
参加夏令营组的 CGI-P、IPR 和 WFIRS 显著改善，但对照组没有改善。效应大小在 0.7 到 1.6 之间。
治疗性夏令营可有效改善 ADHD 症状、同伴关系和儿童的整体功能。
