Neurofeedback treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children: a comparison with methylphenidate.

Clinical trials have suggested that neurofeedback may be efficient in treating attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We compared the effects of a 3-month electroencephalographic feedback program providing reinforcement contingent on the ...

Inhibition of return in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Earlier studies have suggested an impairment in the attention and eye movement control of children with ADHD. An important phenomenon in the control of attentional shifts and eye movements is the inhibition of return (IOR), which states that our brain ...

Association of ADHD and conduct disorder--brain electrical evidence for the existence of a distinct subtype.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the impact of psychopathological comorbidity with oppositional defiant/conduct disorder (ODD/CD) on brain electrical correlates in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and to study the pathophysiological ...

Event-related slow-wave activity in two subtypes of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

OBJECTIVE: Previous time-frequency studies have indicated that event-related low-frequency activity has important effects on component topography and developmental effects in auditory event-related potentials (ERPs) of children and adolescents. This ...
