TOPIC: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects more than 5 million American children; the likelihood of their parents experiencing stress is high, which may lead to negative outcomes. Mindful parenting is a parent training modality that teaches compassion, listening, and creative engagement with one's child, and has been shown to be effective in decreasing levels of parental stress.PURPOSE: An 8-week evidence-based applied clinical project (N= 7) was designed to answer the question: In parents of childrenwith the diagnosis of ADHD, or exhibiting ADHD traits, what is the effect of providing mindful parenting psychoeducation in addition to standard of care treatment on levels of parental stress post intervention?SOURCES USED: An exhaustive literature search was performed using the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, the Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, and PubMed.CONCLUSIONS: Outcomes were measured using the Parenting Stress Index, Fourth Edition Short Form (PSI-4-SF). Scores on the Total Stress scale decreased significantly after 8 weeks (p =.018); a significant decrease also occurred across two of the three PSI-4-SF subscales (Parental Distress and Parent-Child Dysfunctional Interaction). Recommendations for practice change, suggestions for future clinical inquiry, and project limitations are discussed.
