NCT06831123
This study involves a 3-arm randomized controlled trial designed to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of three preventive interventions designed to reduce risk for escalations in adolescent conduct problems. High school students identified to be at risk for conduct problems will be randomly assigned to one of three intervention options, including a mindfulness-based program, a mindfulness-based program augmented by a new mobile app, and a life skills program. Assessments related to intervention outcomes will be completed by adolescents, parents/guardians, and teachers at baseline, 2 weeks post-intervention, and at a 3-month follow-up.
NCT01822392
The research evaluates the use of online versions of delivering an effective psychological treatment for children clinically referred for serious oppositional, aggressive, and antisocial behavior. The goal is to develop models of delivery that reach families in need that are not being served by in-person treatment. The project has immediate implications for the treatment of children but more generally addresses several issues critical to treatments that are based on Internet, telepsychiatry, and related technologies.
NCT05379608
Aim of this prospective, interventional, single-center, randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intermittent hypoxic-hyperoxic training (IHHT) as a rehabilitation method in patients with cardiovascular pathology in the early period after coronavirus infection. The study will include 60 patients with cardiovascular pathology who underwent confirmed by laboratory tests COVID-19 infection 1-3 months ago with the degree of lung lesion CT3, CT4, who were admitted to the University Clinical Hospital No. 4 of I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University. The patients will be divided into 2 groups (intervention and control groups). Intervention group will inhale hypoxic gas mixtures (10-12% O2) followed by exposure to a hyperoxic gas mixture with 30-35% O2 5 times a week for 3 weeks, while control group will undergo a simulated IHHT. All the patients will undergo identical laboratory and instrumental testing before IHHT, after the last IHHT procedure, in a month after the last IHHT procedure and in 6 months. Estimated result of the study is to confirm or refute the hypothesis of the study that a three-week course of IHHT in patients with cardiovascular pathology in the early period after coronavirus infection can improve exercise tolerance, as well as the quality of life and psychoemotional status, and affect the dynamics of laboratory and instrumental parameters.
NCT01653535
The primary aim of this project is to evaluate the effects of a comprehensive intervention to prevent severe and chronic conduct problems in a sample of children selected as high-risk when they first entered school. It is hypothesized that the intervention will have positive effects on proximal child behavior in middle school, and high school affecting long-term adolescent outcomes such as conduct disorder, juvenile delinquency, school dropout, substance use, teen pregnancy, relational competence with peers, romantic partners and parents, education and employment and social and community integration.
NCT06301516
Conduct disorder (CD) is one of the most prevalent childhood psychiatric disorders. Unfortunately, there are limited treatments available for CD. The present study aims to test an innovative virtual reality intervention called Impact VR for symptom reduction in a sample of 60 youth with CD.
NCT05606978
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether blended Forensic Ambulant Systemic Therapy (FASTb) is equally effective as regular FAST (FASTr).
NCT02988453
A feasibility and pilot trial to investigate the feasibility of a newly manualized psychotherapy "Mentalization-Based Training for Adolescents with Conduct Disorder (MBT-CD)"
NCT03971682
This non-randomized controlled trial with a control group aimed to assess the efficacy of a 20-session individualized Compassion Focused Therapy-based intervention, the PSYCHOPATHY.COMP, in reducing psychopathic traits (primary outcomes), aggression, shame, emotion regulation problems, and fears of compassion, as well as in increasing social safeness, self-compassion, and compassion towards others (secondary outcomes). The PSYCHOPATHY.COMP's impact on psychophysiological (i.e., Heart Rate/Heart Rate Variability) and behavioral indicators (i.e., number disciplinary infractions and number of days in punishment) were also tested, in order to ascertain if changes observed in self-report questionnaires were reflected in more adjusted psychophysiological and behavioral patterns. Mental Health disorders, as well as the number of Conduct Disorder criteria, were also tested as moderators of treatment effects.
NCT03887312
This study evaluates the effectiveness of t-CETA, a version of Common Elements Treatment Approach (CETA) adapted to be delivered over the telephone, in treating common mental health problems in 8-17 year old Syrian refugee children living in Lebanon. Children will be randomly assigned to receive either t-CETA or treatment as usual provided by Médecins du Monde, an NGO providing medical and mental health services to Syrian refugees in Lebanon. If families do not agree to randomisation, they will be offered t-CETA and their data will be used to evaluate implementation and acceptability of the intervention. Symptoms of common mental health problems, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and behavioural problems, and psychological well-being, will be measured before treatment, immediately after treatment, and three months after treatment is completed. Groups will be compared to determine if t-CETA is at least as effective as standard treatment provided by Médecins du Monde.
NCT01867398
Background: \- Some children and teenagers have conditions known as conduct disorders. They often have long-term chronic behavior problems, such as defiant behavior or violence. Conduct disorders are often treated with antipsychotic medication. Researchers want to study two types of newer antipsychotics (aripiprizole and risperidone) for children and adolescents with conduct disorders. They will look at how these drugs affect brain activity. To do so, they will give brain activity tests using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The tests will compare the results from healthy volunteer children and teens to those of others with behavior problems. Objectives: \- To see how atypical antipsychotics affect brain activity of children and teenagers with conduct disorders. Eligibility: * Children and teenagers between 10 and 18 years of age who have a conduct disorder and are taking aripiprizole. * Children and teenagers between 10 and 18 years of age who have a conduct disorder and are taking risperidone. * Children and teenagers between 10 and 18 years of age who have a conduct disorder and are not taking an atypical antipsychotic. * Healthy volunteers between 10 and 18 years of age. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Parents/guardians will be asked questions about their child s feelings, experiences, and behavior. Participants will also answer questions about their feelings and moods. * This study will involve two visits. Each visit will involve MRI scanning. * At the first visit, participants will have memory and thinking tests. The tests will involve making decisions or playing games. Some of these tests will use MRI scanning to look at brain activity. * The second visit will be 3 to 5 months after the first visit. The tests from the first visit will be repeated.
NCT01098695
The investigators are testing the efficacy of a family-based preventive intervention, which began when the children were age 2, with children at risk for developing significant conduct problems. Families who were originally recruited from Women, Infants and Children (WIC) were randomly assigned to a family-centered intervention developed by Dishion and colleagues (Dishion \& Kavanagh, 2003; Dishion \& Stormshak, 2006) referred to as an 'ecological approach to family intervention and treatment' (EcoFIT). The current study expands the Early Steps intervention into the elementary school years beyond what is currently available for a WIC service delivery venue, in which children are no longer eligible for services at age 6. The investigators are testing the hypothesis that periodic, tailored, and adaptive interventions delivered to caregivers at school entry will (a) reduce the probability of elevated risk associated with early-onset problem behavior, including the eventual use of drugs and other health-risking behaviors; (b) reduce the likelihood of mental health problems such as childhood depression, anxiety, conduct problems and co-morbidity; and (c) promote children's development of self-regulation, which underlies school readiness, early school literacy academic achievement, and positive peer relations.

Trauma-informed treatment will improve emotional regulation and behavior.
NCT01362946
The purpose of this study is to modify behavior therapy so that it is optimized for children with conduct problems and callous-unemotional traits by emphasizing reward components and de-emphasizing punishment components.
NCT02318745
This study seeks to investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of a highly promising "Culturally Informed Family Therapy for Adolescents" in preventing the emergence of two important health disparities in Hispanic youth, namely drug use \& HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STI). The proposed study is submitted as part of a P60 application entitled "NCMHD Center for Culturally-Tailored Hispanic Health Disparities Research (El Centro)", in response to the NIH RFA-MD-06-002: Establishing Comprehensive NCMHD Research Centers of Excellence. This study investigates: 1) the efficacy of the treatment in reducing existing psychiatric, behavioral and family problems in youth, and 2) the indicated prevention effects of the intervention on the emergence of drug use and HIV/STI 20 months after baseline. There is a substantial literature linking disruptive behaviors (i.e., conduct disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and mood instability (i.e., depressive disorders) and family conflict to the development of the Hispanic health disparities of drug use and HIV/STI. Conduct disorder (CD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and depressive disorders (DD) will be targets of treatment, as will be the family risk factors (e.g., poor parenting, family conflict) and acculturation-related stressors, all of which have been shown to place youth on a destructive trajectory toward deteriorating health.
NCT00404911
This study will examine the effectiveness of a multiple family group mental health service delivery strategy in improving mental health service use and outcome for urban, low income children of color, ages 7-11 years old with disruptive behaviors and their families.
NCT00344474
Personality targeted cognitive behavioural interventions have been shown to be effective in reducing alcohol and drug misuse in adult substance abusers (Conrod et al., 2000) and adolescent drinkers (Conrod et al, in press). As these interventions target personality traits linked to risk for addictive and non-addictive mental disorders, the aim of this study is to examine the extent to which this approach can prevent and/or reduce alcohol and drug misuse as well as have an impact on the onset or severity of emotional and behavioural problems in young people.
NCT00280228
This study will compare two programs to see if they are helpful in preventing the use of substances in adolescents with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), or conduct disorder (CD). One of the programs involves working with adolescents and their parent(s) in their home. The other program involves working with adolescents and their parent(s) in an office setting.
