Specific AimsSpecific Aims
To revise and culturally adapt PCIT for Puerto Rican preschool aged children with a diagnosis of ADHD who also present high rates of behavior problems.
To conduct a randomized controlled pilot study to evaluate the initial efficacy, feasibility, and acceptability of the refined PCIT for children with a diagnosis of ADHD and problem behaviors and their families.
Inclusion criteriaInclusion criteria 4 to 6 years – 11 months of age Parent complaints of significant hyperactivity
and behavior problems No evidence of neurological, pervasive
developmental disorders or significant handicaps

No indicators of severe psychopathology on parents

behavior problems– Description of hyperactivity and its relationship
to behavior problems– Associated difficulties– Risks and protective factors– Possible etiologies
– Treatment options

Aim 1Aim 1 Procedures
– Screening and outcome measures (Pre-treatment assessment)
– Psychoeducational sessions (2 sessions)
– CDI and PDI Mean CDI sessions = 7.47 (6 - 9)
Mean PDI sessions= 7.79 (6 - 10)
