Internet Treatment Delivery of Parent-Adolescent Conflict Training for Families with an ADHD Teen: A Feasibility Study

ABSTRACT

The present study examines the feasibility of Internet delivery of a Parent-Adolescent Conflict Training (PACT) program to families with an ADHD teen. The goals of the project are to ascertain the willingness of families to participate in this web-based study, identify relevant issues related to confidentiality of Internet data collection, and determine participant satisfaction with this treatment approach. Six families participated and four were compliant with the Internet participation requirements. A series of single subject linear regressions revealed that all but one participant maintained a steady login rate over time. Treatment compliance results are promising. Participants gave high ratings to the security of the website and Satisfaction Scale scores were also above neutral.
