Abstract: Review question / Objective: The proposed scoping review aims to identify and map the current evidence base on (1) the range of parent and child determinants of attachment in child ADHD, (2) the mental health and functional outcomes for the child, and (3) the breadth, components and methods of existing psychological parenting intervention approaches that seek to improve or monitor attachment in children with ADHD. In doing so, we also aim to determine the scope of the current body of knowledge on this topic, identify gaps in the literature, and provide recommendations for future research. In addition, as this review forms part of a larger research project, it is anticipated that the results will also help to inform the development and tailoring of future intervention approaches for improving the attachment relationship in childhood ADHD. Primary and sub-questions were developed to guide the specific inclusion criteria for the scoping review (detailed below). These questions were based on the Population, Concept and Context (PCC) mnemonic recommended by the Joanna Briggs Institute (Peters et al., 2015) and are as follows: 1. What are the determinants of attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? a. What are the parent determinants of attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? b. What are the child determinants of attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? 2. What are the child outcomes of attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? a. What are the mental health outcomes of attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? b. What are the functional outcomes of attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? 3. What existing psychological parenting intervention approaches seek to improve attachment quality in children diagnosed with ADHD? a. What are the intervention components and methods?

Abstract: Review question / Objective: The objective the current review is to delineate the cognitive profile of SCT, particularly where it is similar to or different from ADHD-related inattention. In addition, the review will provide an analysis of methodological factors that might account for discrepancies in research findings and guidance for future studies. Condition being studied: Sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) is a constellation of symptoms originally identified among children with the inattentive subtype of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD-I). These symptoms include daydreaming, inconsistent alertness, hypoactivity and lethargy. Although there is considerable overlap with ADHD-I, factor analytic and convergent and discriminant validity studies suggest that SCT is a distinct construct. Moreover, there is evidence that SCT may be common in a number of other disorders, including depression and autism - suggesting that SCT might represent an important transdiagnostic construct.

Abstract: To investigate whether sleep disturbances previously found to characterise high risk infants: (a) persist into childhood (b) are influenced by early maternal settling strategies and (c) predict cognitive and emotional/behavioural functioning. Mothers experiencing high and low levels of psychosocial adversity (risk) were recruited antenatally and longitudinally assessed with their children. Mothers completed measures of settling strategies and infant sleep postnatally, and at 12 and 18 months, infant age. At five years, child sleep characteristics were measured via an actigraphy and maternal report IQ and child adjustment were also assessed. Sleep disturbances observed in high-risk infants persisted at five years. Maternal involvement in infant settling was greater in high risk mothers, and predicted less optimal sleep at five years. Poorer five year sleep was associated with concurrent child anxiety/depression and aggression, but there was limited evidence for an influence of early sleep problems. Associations between infant/child sleep characteristics and IQ were also limited. Early maternal over-involvement in infant settling is associated with less optimal sleep in children, which in turn, is related to child adjustment. The findings highlight the importance of supporting parents in the early development of good settling practices, particularly in high-risk populations.

Abstract: To evaluate intervention characteristics and components within behavioral sleep interventions in school-aged children with ADHD and examine evidence related to effectiveness. A systematic review was conducted using PsycINFO, Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, and OpenGray. The subsequent meta-analysis used sleep outcomes to produce comparable effect sizes (Hedges’ g) and compare intervention effects between randomized controlled trials and pre-post studies. Eleven articles satisfied the inclusion criteria (562 children, across all groups, aged 5–14 years, M = 8.71). Studies reported improvements in sleep although there was marked heterogeneity between studies and limited use of objective sleep measures within them. On average, intervention groups improved more than control groups in the five randomized controlled trials (−0.46, 95% CI = [−0.58, −0.35], k = 4). The findings support the use of behavioral sleep interventions for school-aged children with ADHD. Findings suggest that brief, in idualized intervention may be more effective than standardized.
