Summary
This pilot study at Duke University compares two behavioral treatments—organizational skills training (OST) and mindfulness-based intervention (MBI)—for 30 teens aged 13-17 with ADHD. Both treatments involve eight 90-minute sessions. Researchers will measure changes in ADHD symptoms, daily functioning, and emotional control using questionnaires completed by teens and their parents. The goal is to see which approach works better and is more acceptable to teens.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
behavioral interventions (organizational skills training and mindfulness-based intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could show that either organizational skills training or mindfulness helps teens with ADHD manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all teens with ADHD. It compares two existing treatments, not a new drug, so no major breakthrough is expected.
