NCT ID NCT07291453
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new parent support program that uses short educational videos sent via text message. The videos teach strategies to handle difficult situations like transitions or waiting. Researchers want to see if parents find the program helpful and if it improves child behavior. The study involves 250 parents of children aged 4-10 who show inattentive, hyperactive, or impulsive behaviors.
