The relationship between emotion dysregulation and sleep in children and adolescents with ADHD: protocol for a systematic review.

Introduction: Over half of children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have difficulties with emotion dysregulation (EDR) and/or sleep, yet the interrelations between emotional regulation and sleep are not well-characterised in this population. This systematic review will address the relationship between these difficulties and investigate whether specific aspects of EDR are more strongly related to sleep problems in youth with ADHD.

Methods And Analysis: We will adhere to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis guideline for systematic reviews.

Goal management training improves executive control in adults with ADHD: an open trial employing attention network theory to examine effects on attention.

Background: Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) typically experience poorer attentional control. According to the attention network theory, attentional control relies on three interacting networks of alerting, orienting, and executive control. In ADHD, it is mainly the alerting and executive control networks that are suggested and found to be compromised.

An Exploratory Investigation of Goal Management Training in Adults With ADHD: Improvements in Inhibition and Everyday Functioning.

Adults with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are predominantly treated with medication. However, there is also a need for effective, psychologically based interventions. As ADHD is strongly associated with reduced inhibitory control, cognitive remediation approaches should be efficient.

Goal management training for adults with ADHD - clients' experiences with a group-based intervention.

Background: There is growing evidence for the efficacy of group-based interventions for adults with ADHD. However, there is still a lack of research investigating how clients experience participating in such interventions. The aim of the current study was to explore how adults with ADHD experience participating in a group-based intervention (Goal Management Training) for ADHD.

Insomnia, Alcohol Consumption and ADHD Symptoms in Adults.

Introduction: Substance use disorders and insomnia are common in the general population, and particularly among adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Here we investigated the relationship between insomnia, alcohol consumption and ADHD symptoms.

Methods: Adults with an ADHD diagnosis ( = 235, 41.

Keeping Emotions in Mind: The Influence of Working Memory Capacity on Parent-Reported Symptoms of Emotional Lability in a Sample of Children With and Without ADHD.

Emotional lability (EL) often co-occurs with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children. However, difficulties of regulating intense emotions in ADHD are still poorly understood. We investigated the potential role of working memory (WM) as a protective factor against EL in children with ADHD by building on models describing the close relationship between WM and regulation of emotions.
