PAINT-Wijkteam (community care)
Questionnaire study (ongoing)
Parents of children with behavioral difficulties, such as hyperactive, disobedient and aggressive behavior, can receive support in an accessible way via community care teams. It is currently unclear what kind of support community care teams offer to these families. Within this questionnaire study, we want to gain a better picture of the current way of working at community care teams with families with children with behavioral difficulties and we want to gain more insight into factors that contribute to differences in the provision of support.
Parent training study (in preparation)
Parent training is an effective treatment for children with behavioral difficulties and is recommended as a first-choice treatment by various guidelines. Within PAINT, various studies into a short parent training are being conducted. Within this project, we want to investigate the feasibility of this short parent training when it is offered within community care teams.
Our goal
Questionnaire study
In the questionnaire study of PAINT-P Wijkteam (community care) we map out what support families with a child with behavioral difficulties currently receive from community care teams.
Parent training study
When we know more about the support that community care teams offer to families with a child with behavioral difficulties, we will investigate the feasibility of the short parent training in this setting. The aim of the study is to help families with a child with behavioral difficulties at the earliest possible stage and in an accessible way.
Structure & design of the study
Questionnaire study
First, we will use this questionnaire among employees of community care teams to map out what support community care teams currently offer to families with a child with behavioral difficulties. We will also map out whether this support is in line with guidelines. Community care team employees can complete the questionnaire in the summer of 2024.
Parent training study
After the questionnaire study, we will investigate the short parent training within community care teams.
What is in it for the participants?
Questionnaire study
Community care teams that participate in the questionnaire study contribute to the knowledge about the support that community care teams throughout the Netherlands offer to families with a child with behavioral difficulties.
Parent training study
Community care teams that participate in the study into parent training receive training and a protocol to be able to provide the parent training. In addition, by participating in the study, community care teams make an important contribution to all families with a child with behavioral difficulties. Through research, we learn how we can improve parent training, which can help other parents and children in the future.

Other Projects
Paint-T
In the Paint-T trial, the effectiveness of the components of teacher training was examined by means of a microtrial, and in the follow-up study Paint T trial, the effectiveness of a combined teacher training will be examined.
PAINT-IPDMA
In PAINT-IPDMA, an individual participant data meta-analysis is being conducted on psychosocial treatments for children and adolescents with ADHD. In the follow-up IPDMA study, the psychosocial treatments for children and adolescents with behavioural problems are investigated.
PAINT-Move
The aim of PAINT-move is to investigate whether it helps children with ADHD to move in the classroom while working. For this purpose, the children use a bicycle under their table for six weeks.
PAINT-C
The PAINT-C study maps the care for children with ADHD and/or hyperactive behaviour in the Netherlands at municipalities, CJGs/District Teams and schools and investigates what predicts treatment choices in ADHD.
PLOS
The study PLOS (Planning at School) investigates the effectiveness of a programme to support secondary school students with planning problems. PLOS consists of two parts PLOS-basic and PLOS-extra.
PAINT-P
In PAINT-P the effectiveness of the components of parental training for ADHD was studied and in the follow-up studies Paint-POH, Paint-GGZ, Paint-Pilotstudy and Paint-Wijkteam the effectiveness and feasibilityof combined parental training in different settings will be studied.
