The course of neuropsychological functions in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder from late childhood to early adolescence

Article Abstract:

The course of performance in attentional tasks in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and normal controls in late childhood and preadolescence over short periods of time are investigated. The selection of an appropriate time window seems to be essential for the detection of group differences between ADHD children and controls when measuring attentional functions because group differences are most pronounced before adolescence.
