Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine caregiver satisfaction with the research experience in a randomized clinical trial of atomoxetine (ATX) and parent training (PT) for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and behavioral noncompliance co-occurring with autism. The Children with Hyperactivity and Autism Research Treatment Study (CHARTS) randomly assigned 128 children 5.00-14.11 years of age to four treatment groups (ATX + PT, ATX alone, PT + placebo[PBO], and PBO). Caregivers completed an 18 item questionnaire about their satisfaction with the research experience. We summarized caregiver responses with descriptive statistics and examined whether the responses were associated with demographic variables, treatment assignment, or the child's response to treatment (positive or negative). Ninety-three percent of caregivers (119) completed the questionnaire. When asked if they would join the study again if given the chance, 87% (103) responded "yes," 13% (15) responded "maybe," and 1% (1) responded "no." When asked if they would recommend the study to other caregivers of children with similar problems, 92% (109) responded "yes" and 8% responded (10) "maybe." Of the 59 Parent Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ) respondents...Continue Reading
