Summary

This study tested three approaches to help children aged 7 to 11 with ADHD: a computer program that uses a virtual classroom to train attention, the medication methylphenidate, and supportive talk therapy.

Fifty-one children took part, and researchers measured changes using the ADHD Rating Scale and other thinking tests.
