Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Swanson, Kotkin, Agler, M-Flynn, and Pelham (SKAMP) Combined Scores

    The SKAMP scale is a validated rating of subjective impairment of classroom behaviors in children with ADHD. It comprises 13 items (grouped under the subcategories of attention, deportment, quality of work, and compliance) on which subjects are rated according to a 7-point scale (0 = normal to 6 = maximal impairment) by trained study personnel (Swanson 1998). The SKAMP-C score was obtained by summing the rating values for each of the 13 items (range: 0-78), with higher scores indicating greater impairment.

    Average of all time points during the full laboratory classroom day, which occurred on Day 7 (Day 28 of the overall study) of the Treatment Phase

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Permanent Product Measure of Performance (PERMP) Rating Scale, Number of Problems Attempted (PERMP-A)

    Average of all time points during the full laboratory classroom day, which occurred on Day 7 (Day 28 of the overall study) of the Treatment Phase
