Summary

This trial will help college students with ADHD develop skills to succeed in their studies and avoid negative academic outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for college students at The City College of New York who have been diagnosed with ADHD, either Inattentive or Combined Subtype. Participants should be in good physical health. It's not open to individuals who are actively suicidal, have certain psychiatric disorders like bipolar disorder or borderline personality disorder, a history of severe childhood trauma, neurological issues, recent drug or alcohol abuse, or any acute psychiatric condition that requires immediate treatment.
What is being tested?
The study is testing a cognitive-behavioral therapy program designed to help college students with ADHD improve their self-management skills. This includes better time management and planning to enhance academic performance and reduce the likelihood of negative educational outcomes.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves psychological therapy rather than medication, traditional side effects associated with drugs are not expected. However, participants may experience emotional discomfort discussing personal issues during therapy sessions.
