Interventions/Control_1 [Parent Training]
- 2 psychologists or doctors will conduct the manualised 100 mins behavioural parent training sessions administered over 10 sessions.
- Participating mothers will attend the session in groups of 3-6.
- Behavioural Parent Training [BPT] is based on that of Barkley [42, 43], Forehand and McMahon [44] and Whitham [45], modified to suit the Japanese culture.
- Parent Training allows the adjustment of the environment and sets rules. Through role plays, it teaches the mothers how they could intervene when potential problem behaviours occur. It encourages the application of the taught techniques in the home environment through homeworks and summary sheets.

The BPT Manual consists of the following chapters:
Step 1: Divide the behaviour into 3 components.
Step 2: Attend to the desirable behaviour
Step 3: Make "praising" a habit
Step 4: Ignore undesirable behaviours
Step 5: Make plans to "ignore"
Step 6: How to give effective instructions
Step 7: How to make reward charts
Step 8: Implementing reward charts and setting boundaries
Step 9: Adjusting the environment
Step 10: Review

- The therapists and the researcher will monitor the quality of the sessions through reviewing the recorded videos or sitting in on the sessions.
- To prevent drop-outs, personal training will be arranged for those who had missed up to 3 sessions so that they can catch up the missed contents and return to the group program.
