An interventional study of Let's Get Organized in Neurodevelopmental Disorders and Mental Disorder, sponsored by Örebro University, Sweden. Completed. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 65 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-10-26.
Sponsored by Örebro University, Sweden · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The aim of this study is to pilot test the Let's Get Organized (LGO) Occupational Therapy intervention in a Swedish context by exploring possible enhancements in time management skills, aspects of executive functioning, and satisfaction with daily occupations in persons with time-management difficulties due to neurodevelopmental and/or mental disorders.
Method:
A pre-post design with 3 and 12-months follow-up is used.
The LGO intervention is a manual-based group intervention aiming to enhance time-management, targeted to persons with mental or neurodevelopmental disorders. The LGO is conducted as 10 weekly 1.5-hour group sessions. Two trained group leaders, lead each group of 6-8 participants. Goal-directed and other learning strategies are used to train effective time management habits such as maintaining a calendar and wearing a watch. All group sessions follow the same format, and each session has a set theme. Group sessions are structured with a slide presentation and a course manual, and information from the group leaders is intermixed with discussion among the participants and tasks to complete.
The primary outcome of the study is self-reported time management measured by the Assessment of Time Management Skills (ATMS-S). Secondary outcomes are executive functioning measured with the Weekly Calendar Planning Activity (WCPA) and satisfaction with daily occupations, which is measured with the interview-administered questionnaire Satisfaction with Daily Occupations 13 items (SDO-13).
Data will be collected before intervention start (pre intervention), after intervention completion (post intervention) and 3 and 12 months post intervention completion. The ATMS will be collected at all four time points. The WCPA and SDO-13 will be collected pre, post and 12 months post intervention.
336 studies on the registry are indexed under Neurodevelopmental Disorders; 141 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 75 is below the median of 89 across 208 interventional studies indexed under Neurodevelopmental Disorders.
