Introduction Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurodevelopmental disorder among children and adolescents in the world. Psychoeducation is a cornerstone of ADHD management, including the psychoeducation of relatives. Parents have been found to play a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of their children with ADHD. Therefore, a study is needed on the development of psychoeducation that is effective in increasing the knowledge of parents on how to help their children with ADHD in Indonesia. Method This study is a pre-post interventional study that uses an ADHD Knowledge Questionnaire adapted and translated into Indonesian from See et al. (2021) as a pre-test and post-test. Results Wilcoxon signed ranks test reveals that the knowledge of ADHD in the pre-test and posttest increased significantly (P < .001) across every category. The mean score was 38.0% (SD±21.4) on the pre-test and 58.3% (SD±26.2) on the post-test. Increased ADHD knowledge was significantly associated with having other friends or relatives with ADHD (p < 0.01) in the pre-test and with their level of education (p < 0.01) in the post-test. Discussion The parents’ knowledge of ADHD was relatively low before psychoeducation and increased to average levels in the post-test. The intervention is effective in all disorder information categories for parents of all personal factors, except their education level, which needs to be adjusted for. Conclusion Psychoeducation is a beneficial and effective method to increase knowledge of ADHD for parents in Indonesia.
