PAINT-kennisverspreiding
In the PAINT-kennisverspreiding project, we collaborate with the parent interest association Balans to disseminate knowledge about effective treatments for ADHD and behavioral problems in various ways.
What is the goal of the study?
The goal of PAINT-kennisverspreiding is to share knowledge about effective treatments with practitioners, specifically parents, teachers, healthcare professionals, and policy makers in municipalities. Over the past few years, extensive research has been conducted on psychosocial interventions for ADHD. This research shows that parent and teacher training for children, as well as skills training for adolescents, are the most effective. However, previous research from the PAINT group (PAINT-CAU) has shown that these treatments are rarely implemented in practice. By disseminating this knowledge, we hope that more families gain access to effective ADHD treatments rather than ineffective or unproven treatments.
How is the study structured?
We disseminate knowledge about effective treatments for ADHD and behavioral problems through webinars, the creation of vlogs and animations, and by harmonizing and updating information on key websites. We do this in collaboration with the parent interest association Balans. This website serves as an important platform for sharing the knowledge gained from this research: https://adhdendrukgedrag.nl/.
