本研究评估了52名患有注意力缺陷/多动障碍（ADHD）和其他共病诊断的儿童和青少年（7-17岁）为期5周的强化工作记忆训练计划的效果。这项研究提供了一个治疗复制，因为等待名单对照组也完成了训练，并被纳入了随访数据分析。家长和老师在基线、治疗后和4个月的随访中完成了工作记忆、执行功能和ADHD症状的纸笔测量。家长评分表明，参与者在注意力不集中、ADHD症状总数、启动、计划/组织和工作记忆方面有所改善。教师评分在治疗后、4个月随访和初始阶段接近显著性。工作记忆训练在改善执行功能和ADHD症状方面似乎很有希望。
This study assessed the efficacy of a 5-week, intensive working memory training program for 52 children and adolescents (ages 7-17) who had Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other comorbid diagnoses. This study provided a treatment replication since the waitlist control group also completed training and was included in the follow-up data analyses. Parents and teachers completed paper-and-pencil measures of working memory, executive functioning, and ADHD symptoms at baseline, posttreatment, and 4-month follow-up. Parent ratings indicated that participants improved on inattention, overall number of ADHD symptoms, initiation, planning/organization, and working memory. Teacher ratings approached significance at posttreatment and at 4-month follow-up on and Initiate scale. Working memory training appears promising as an intervention in improving executive functioning and ADHD symptoms.
