AIM This study investigated whether components of attention and executive functioning improve when children with attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are treated with osmotic-release oral system (OROS) methylphenidate.METHOD Thirty children (24 males, six females; mean age 8y 6mo, SD 1y 11mo; range 6y 5mo - 12y 6mo) with ADHD combined type participated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial with the child's clinically most effective dose as identified with a systematic open-label titration procedure. After 1 week on each treatment (placebo and OROS methylphenidate), a neuropsychological battery that assessed sustained attention, selective attention, attentional control, response inhibition, and working memory was administered. This battery included the Gordon Diagnostic System, seven subtests of the Test of Everyday Attention for Children, and two tests of working memory.RESULTS Performance on two of three tests of response inhibition improved on OROS methylphenidate compared with placebo (p
