Child neurocognitive functioning influences the effectiveness of specific techniques in behavioral teacher training for ADHD: Moderator analyses from a randomized controlled microtrial.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Childhood attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with several neurocognitive impairments. Whether these impairments influence the effectiveness of techniques that are commonly used in behavioral teacher training for ADHD has not been investigated so far. Method: In this microtrial, teachers of 90 children with ADHD symptoms (6-12 years) were randomly assigned to a short intervention consisting of either antecedent-based (stimulus-control) techniques or consequent-based (contingency management) techniques, or to a waitlist control condition. Primary outcome was the daily assessment of individually selected problem behavior, assessed pre- and post-intervention. Potential neurocognitive moderators of treatment effect included teacher ratings of cognitive control, reward, and punishment sensitivity, and measures derived from computerized neurocognitive tasks, including attentional lapses, interference control, visuospatial working memory, and emotional functioning. Intervention condition by moderator interactions were assessed in separate multilevel mixed models. Results: Lapses of attention, working memory, and emotional functioning interacted with intervention effectiveness. Antecedent-based techniques were effective independent of these neurocognitive functions; consequent-based techniques were (more) effective when these functions were more impaired. The effectiveness of techniques was neither related to interference control nor to teacher-rated neurocognitive functioning. Conclusions: This study showed that child neurocognitive functioning influences the effectiveness of behavioral teacher techniques for children with ADHD symptoms. Findings suggest that antecedent-based techniques may be effective for all children, while consequent-based techniques have added value particularly for children who suffer from low visuospatial working memory, low emotional functioning, and/or large numbers of attentional lapses.
