Effectiveness of attexis, a digital intervention based on cognitive behavioral therapy for adults with ADHD: a randomized controlled trial
Overview
This randomized controlled trial evaluates attexis, a self-guided digital intervention combining cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness principles for adults with ADHD. The study compares the addition of this tool to usual care against usual care alone across 337 participants, measuring outcomes such as symptom severity, functional impairment, and quality of life at three and six months. Results indicate significant reductions in ADHD symptoms and improvements in secondary measures for the intervention group, with effects remaining stable over time.
