Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Adapted Mindful Awareness Practices (MAPS)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Mindful Awareness Practices (MAPs) for ADHD program, an 8-week, group-based mindfulness program for adults with ADHD, has been shown to reduce ADHD, depression, and anxiety symptoms. While promising, it is unknown as to whether the MAPs protocol is feasible, acceptable, and efficacious for college students with ADHD. The current study takes the first step towards enhanced study of mindfulness for college students with ADHD by testing the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an adapted MAPs protocol delivered within university counseling center settings during the first semester of college.
Group II: Services-As-UsualActive Control1 Intervention
Services-As-Usual includes the standard academic support services provided by university disability/accessibility offices.
