Overview

Quasi-experimental study evaluates cognitive intervention effects on attention in children with ADHD, suggesting potential benefits.

Key Points

  • This study aims to evaluate the effects of a three-month cognitive intervention on attentional and behavioral functioning in children with ADHD.
  • Quasi-experimental pre–post exploratory design without a control group in 55 children aged 7–11 years with inattentive ADHD.
  • Intervention included twice-weekly computerized cognitive training and daily paper-based exercises.
  • Neuropsychological performance assessed using computerized tests and scales completed by parents and teachers.
  • Significant improvements in attentional measures including Test of Attentional Vigilance (Z = –3.37, r = .52), Stroop task (Z = 3.46, r = .53), and Go/No-Go task (Z = 4.13, r = .59).
  • Decreased reaction times in visual search task (Z = –6.03, r = .71).
  • Behavioral assessments showed reductions in inattention across ASEBA (Z = 4.11, r = .56) and other scales.
