Executive Function Play Opportunities for Children With Down Syndrome (EXPO)

25 sierpnia 2026 zaktualizowane przez: Colorado State University

Executive Function Intervention for Young Children With Down Syndrome

The Executive Function Play Opportunities (EXPO) study is a sequential, multiple assignment, randomized trial (SMART) evaluating adaptive caregiver-mediated intervention pathways for improving executive function (EF) in children with Down syndrome (DS). At baseline, participants will be randomized in a 1:4 ratio to receive either a delayed-treatment control condition or the EXPO intervention. After 4 weeks of standard EXPO intervention in stage 1, participants in the EXPO condition will be assessed for response to the intervention based on prespecified criteria for improvement in laboratory-based EF performance. Early responders will continue with the standard EXPO intervention in stage 2. Slower responders will be randomized to either the EXPO Extended or EXPO Foundations pathway. All participants will complete laboratory and parent-report measures of EF immediately post-intervention and 3 months later. Participants in the delayed-treatment control condition will complete the same assessments as the EXPO groups and will be offered the EXPO intervention after completion of the 3-month follow-up.

Szczegółowy opis

The Executive Function Play Opportunities (EXPO) study is a sequential, multiple assignment, randomized trial (SMART) evaluating adaptive caregiver-mediated intervention pathways for improving executive function (EF) in children with Down syndrome (DS). At baseline, all participants will complete an assessment including laboratory-based measures of EF, parent-report measures of EF, and intensive ecological measurement of EF using the iBehavior app. Participants will then be randomized in a 1:4 ratio to receive either a delayed-treatment control condition or the EXPO intervention, with a target total sample size of 150.

During stage 1, participants in the EXPO condition will complete 4 weeks of standard EXPO intervention. The initial weeks of EXPO consist of 2 weeks of EXPO Ready activities followed by 2 weeks of Working Memory activities, and all participants in the EXPO intervention receive ongoing support from an EXPO coach.

At the stage 1 evaluation, conducted 4 weeks after starting EXPO, all participants will complete the laboratory-based EF assessment battery. EXPO participants will be assessed for response to the intervention and classified as early or slower responders based on prespecified criteria for improvement in laboratory-based EF performance.

Early responders will be assigned to the standard EXPO intervention in stage 2 and continue with activities targeting inhibition, cognitive flexibility, planning, and consolidation of skills for a total of 12 weeks. Slower responders will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the EXPO Extended or EXPO Foundations pathway. The EXPO Extended pathway will include the same core activities as the EXPO standard pathway but will provide additional intervention time, for a total of 18 weeks. The EXPO Foundations pathway will begin with a block of activities targeting early social communication and regulation to provide a foundation for activity engagement, followed by more foundational versions of activities targeting inhibition and cognitive flexibility. The EXPO Foundations pathway will continue for a total of 12 weeks.

All participants will complete laboratory and parent-report measures of EF immediately post-intervention and 3 months later. Participants in the delayed-treatment control condition will not receive EXPO during the initial study period but will complete the same assessments as participants in the EXPO intervention. Following completion of the 3-month follow-up, participants in the delayed-treatment control condition will be offered the EXPO intervention.

Broń i interwencje

Grupa uczestników / Arm
Interwencja / Leczenie
Brak interwencji: Delayed-Treatment Control
Participants do not receive EXPO during the initial study period and complete the same EF assessments as participants in the EXPO intervention pathways. Participants are offered the EXPO intervention following completion of the 3-month follow-up.
Eksperymentalny: EXPO Standard Pathway
Early responders to EXPO at the stage 1 evaluation are assigned to the standard, 12 -week intervention with activities refined from EXPO 2.0.
EXPO is a novel intervention that targets the development of EF through play-based opportunities for children with DS and their primary caregivers. EXPO is a 'syndrome-informed' intervention in that all activities are tailored to phenotypic strengths and challenges associated with DS, accounting for cognitive, language, and motor presentations frequently observed in this population. EXPO is also designed to elicit maximal engagement and enjoyment for children and their caregivers by embedding opportunities to strengthen EF component processes in the context of play and games.

  • Executive Function Play Opportunities
Aktywny komparator: Adaptive Pathway 1/EXPO Extended
Half of participants classified as slower responders to EXPO at the stage 1 evaluation are randomly assigned to EXPO Extended. EXPO Extended provides the standard pathway activities with an extended 18-week schedule.
Alternative EXPO pathway that extends the length of the EXPO intervention from 12 to 18 weeks to provide more time and opportunity for skill acquisition.
Aktywny komparator: Adaptive Pathway 2/EXPO Foundations
Half of participants classified as slower responders to EXPO at the stage 1 evaluation are randomly assigned to EXPO Foundations. EXPO Foundations provides a more foundational pathway with simplified activities, and additional activities that emphasize early communication and regulatory processes.
An augmented version of EXPO that places a greater emphasis on precursors to EXPO activity engagement, including an increased number of social routine activities, enhanced presses for social communication behaviors like joint attention, enhanced focus on early self-regulation skills, and adaptations of all EXPO activities in each block that emphasize more foundational aspects of play.
