Abstract

The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of parenting based on organizational skills and mindful parenting on parent-child relationships and symptoms of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. This was a quasi-experimental research with pretest, posttest and follow up. The study population consisted of all children aged 8-10 years with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in Isfahan who were educated in Isfahan public schools in 2019-2020. In this study participated 45 male children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder that diagnosed on the basis of the Child Psychiatry and Fourth edition of Swanson-Nolan and Pelham Scale. In an experimental group, 11 sessions of parenting based on organizational skills and another experimental group 8 sessions of mindful parenting were conducted. The participants answered to Fourth edition of Swanson-Nolan and Pelham Scale(SNAP-IV) and parent-child relationships scale(CPRS) in three stages. Data were analyzed using repeated measures. Mindful parenting compared parenting based on organizational skills significant effect on parent-child relationships in the post-test and in the follow-up stage also remains(p≤05). Parenting based on organizational skills improved attention deficit and total attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder in the post-test and the effects have been significant and the effect on follow-up stage also remains(p≤05). But parenting based on organizational skills did not have a significant effect on symptoms of hyperactivity/ impulsivity(P≥0.05). This study provides promising results in improving parent-child relationships and reducing the symptoms of children with attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder by educating mindful parenting and parenting based on organizational skills as an intervention.
