Study Arms (2)
MATCH-ADTC Wave 1
EXPERIMENTALWave 1 clinicians received MATCH training at the beginning of the project and used MATCH to treat participating children from their clinic for two years, with weekly case consultation from MATCH experts who were part of the study team, and then received consultation from their own clinic supervisors who had been trained as MATCH Associate Consultants (ACs), supported by the TRAC system.
MATCH-ADTC Wave 2
EXPERIMENTALWave 2 clinicians provided treatment as usual (e.g., usual care) with the children they treated during the initial two years of the project. Afterwards, they trained in MATCH and used it to treat children in their clinics with weekly case consultation from our study team of MATCH experts, supported by the TRAC system.
Interventions
MATCH - ADTC (Modular Approach to Therapy for Children with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, or Conduct Problems; Chorpita \& Weisz, 2009) is a psychosocial intervention designed to treat children with multiple disorders and problems encompassing anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, and disruptive conduct, including the conduct problems associated with ADHD. It is recommended for children aged 6-15. MATCH is composed of 33 modules-i.e., specific treatment procedures derived from decades of research on EBTs. The various modules can be organized and sequenced flexibly to tailor treatment to each child's characteristics and needs.
TRAC (Treatment Response Assessment for Children) is a web-based system that provides weekly monitoring of the MATCH modules used and the child's response to treatment. Child's response to treatment is based on caregiver and child reports of (a) changes in problem severity on the standardized Brief Problem Checklist, and (b) changes in severity of the top treatment concerns identified by youths and caregivers. At the end of treatment, TRAC provides a complete record of modules used, and child treatment response, across all the weeks of treatment, as illustrated in the "client dashboard."
