DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): ADHD is the most common neurobehavioral disorder of childhood and among the most prevalent chronic health conditions affecting school-aged children. The prevalence of ADHD in school-aged children ranges from 4-12 percent. Approximately 3.5 million children meet the criteria for ADHD, yet only about 50 percent of these children are adequately diagnosed and treated. While a lot is known about ADHD, a lot more can be done to effectively put this knowledge into everyday practice. One reason that many ADHD children are not adequately treated is that it can be very challenging to formulate a comprehensive approach to addressing and managing ADHD. The vast majority of efforts involve isolated efforts by school systems, parents, and treatment providers. The importance of facilitating an integrated effort, however, is paramount given that positive outcomes are achieved when interventions involve a systematic appraisal and integration of the child's total environment. The goal of this project is to assess the educational and psycho-social needs of parents, teachers, and ADHD youth and to develop and test a web-based multi-media program designed to meet and integrate these varied needs. The program will be designed for administration to school staff and parents with ADHD children. The program will focus upon providing behavioral techniques and tools that facilitate the development of effective strategies for collaboration between school and home and to promote the implementation of targeted goals for maximizing academic and personal success. In Phase I, focus groups and needs assessments will be conducted with teachers, parents, and middle- school youth. Experts in the fields of developmental, neuro, and clinical psychology will be convened to assist in creating and shaping the educational content of the program. Following initial development, parent and teacher focus group participants and the consultants will be regrouped to comment upon the prototype program and comment upon specific dimensions. Parents and teachers will also be asked to evaluate the program on usefulness, applicability and relevance to their needs. If the prototype meets feasibility criteria, a Phase II effort will be proposed and the program will be fully developed, field-tested, and prepared for marketing. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder of childhood and among the most prevalent chronic health conditions affecting school-aged children. While much is known about the disorder gaps exist in finding resources that address an integrated approach to care and effectively promote communication between teachers and parents. The outcome of this SBIR project will be to develop a multi-media web-based program that focuses on behavioral and communications techniques and tools to facilitate home-school collaboration thus creating a mechanism for child with ADHD to thrive in school and the community.

描述（由申请人提供）：ADHD是儿童期最常见的神经行为障碍，也是影响学龄儿童的最普遍的慢性健康状况之一。学龄儿童ADHD的患病率在4- 12%之间。大约有350万儿童符合ADHD的标准，但只有大约50%的儿童得到充分的诊断和治疗。虽然我们对ADHD有很多了解，但我们还可以做更多的事情来有效地将这些知识应用到日常实践中。许多ADHD儿童没有得到充分治疗的一个原因是，制定一个全面的方法来解决和管理ADHD是非常具有挑战性的。绝大多数努力涉及学校系统、家长和治疗提供者的孤立努力。然而，促进综合努力至关重要，因为只有在干预措施涉及系统评估和整合儿童的整体环境时才能取得积极成果。该项目的目标是评估家长，教师和ADHD青少年的教育和心理社会需求，并开发和测试旨在满足和整合这些不同需求的基于网络的多媒体程序。该计划将被设计为管理学校工作人员和家长与多动症儿童。该计划将侧重于提供行为技术和工具，促进学校和家庭之间的合作有效战略的发展，并促进有针对性的目标，最大限度地提高学术和个人的成功的实施。在第一阶段，将与教师、家长和中学生进行重点小组和需求评估。将召集发展，神经和临床心理学领域的专家，以协助创建和塑造该计划的教育内容。在初步开发之后，家长和教师焦点小组的参与者和顾问将重新分组，对原型计划和具体方面进行评论。家长和教师也将被要求评估该计划的有用性，适用性和相关性，他们的需要。如果原型符合可行性标准，将提出第二阶段的努力，该计划将得到充分开发，现场测试，并准备上市。注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）是儿童期最常见的神经行为障碍，也是影响学龄儿童的最普遍的慢性健康状况之一。虽然对这种疾病了解很多，但在寻找资源以解决综合护理方法和有效促进教师与家长之间的沟通方面存在差距。这个SBIR项目的成果将是开发一个多媒体的基于网络的程序，侧重于行为和通信技术和工具，以促进家校合作，从而创造一个机制，多动症儿童在学校和社区茁壮成长。
