RESist Against Irritability Superiority Trial

"The program's core features are parental self-control and emotional support. In the NVR program, parents recruit supporters to help them deal with their children's problematic behaviours. Developing emotional control means that the parent opposes non-violent resistance to his child's behaviour, not escalating the explosive situation.~10 sessions (5 sessions per day for 2 consecutive days and two booster sessions at M1 and M3 after completion)."

"The gold-standard treatment for disruptive behaviour disorder in children and adolescents. The objective is to train parents to cope with the difficult situations they encounter, to teach them effective control strategies that are coherent and adapted to the 'deviant' behaviour of their children to reduce the intensity of events and their repercussions within the family.~10 sessions (5 sessions per day for 2 consecutive days and two booster sessions at M1 and M3 after completion)."

The TAU group receives non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapies as usually provided in the participating centres but without having had a structured parent program in the last 6 months assessed at baseline, M1 and M3.
