I am a student researcher that is conducting my PhD projects related to 8-12 year-old children with ADHD. Our lifestyle investigation study had been approved by CHADD's Professional Advisory Board to post on CHADD's website to recruit participants. You could see the details of this study (research aims, consent page, instructions of this survey) through CHADD's website: chadd.org/research-studies/... .
This is an anonymous using Qualitrics which web hosting by RMIT University, Australia. Meanwhile, this study had been approved by the human research ethics committee, RMIT University.
We are hoping you could help us to explore how to assist the children with ADHD with this correlational study.
If you have any enquiries, please feel free to drop me the message or send me the mail through the information on CHADD's website.
Many thanks for your kind help!
Best regards,

Many thanks for expressing your interests! This investigation study is welcome parents/caregivers are raising 8-12 year-old children with ADHD. If you could not complete the survey at one time, you could keep the link to return the survey later.
If you have further enquiries, please feel free to let me know anytime!
In reading over the material on the study.. I am unclear on the goal of your research?
Is it to say kids without ADHD do X for so many min/hr. And kids with ADHD do it X min/hours?
There are so many factors that impacts our kids lives that I am not sure how you can compare them. Medication, counseling and parent training.. could all impact their behavior. For example social media / screen time, many children with ADHD hyper focus on things and media is one of them, so I am not sure what we are learning by studying this other than how much harder life is for parents of children with ADHD and this is not news a parent with a child just diagnosed wants to hear..
Just need to know what the focus of the research is.
The main focus of this investigation study is to examine mediating lifestyle factors in explaining childhood ADHD. This correlational investigation study not only includes questionnaires for investigating lifestyle patterns (e.g., level of physical activity, quality of diet, screen time, sleep quality) but also the demographic data (i.e., medication, other treatment strategies, socioeconomic status...) are included in this survey. To address the main research question, we aim to apply the advanced regression model that will need more parents/caregivers to engage this survey study for minimising the unnecessary statistical biases. Therefore, we could explore whether the mediation levels among lifestyle patterns, demographic, and the severity of the disorder. Consequently, to develop further studies based on the results from the current investigation study.
In fact, we had another study that already based on this investigation study. The statistical numbers (quantitative research) could not reflect the nuances for each child. This investigation study was released on last Nov as my first PhD project, and we received several valuable feedback from parent support groups in Australia. Since my senior supervisor and I both believe that each child has unique preferences in lifestyle patterns. We had designed and conducted our first interview study (qualitative research) in parents/caregivers have 8-12 year-old child with ADHD in Australia to ask questions about lifestyle patterns. While this investigation study still needs parents/caregivers' participation, we are working on analysing all transcriptions to write the manuscript to submit soon.
We are hoping to utilise scientific methods to have a better understanding of children with ADHD... even I finish these PhD research projects.
