Psychosocial treatments for children and teenagers with ADHD: Current controversies and empirical evidence

Disorder attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a chronic neurodevelopmental disorder that affects approximately 5% of children and teenagers around the world. ADHD is associated with serious and harmful long-term consequences for children, as well as their families and society as a whole. Although medication is usually effective in treating ADHD, it presents some limits that need to be recognized (e.g. parents preferring psychosocial treatments, low adherence among teenagers, low effectiveness for some functions and side effects). Over the past forty years, various psychosocial treatments have been developed for ADHD (e.g. parental programs, behaviour management in the classroom, cognitive training, neuro-feedback, organizational programs, etc.). This conference mainly aims at summarizing controversial aspects and empirical evidence related to psychosocial treatments for ADHD. We will also review characteristics of treatments, patients and measures that influence therapeutic effectiveness. This will be followed by a discussion on the implications for health professional training and the organization of health care. Finally, a few examples of evidence-based psychosocial treatments for ADHD among youth will be presented.
