Summary

This study is testing a driving simulator called ADRIS 2.1 for teens aged 13-18 with ADHD. The simulator tracks driving errors like running red lights or speeding, and some participants will get 12 training sessions over 6 weeks. Researchers want to see if the simulator can improve attention and reduce mistakes behind the wheel.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ADRIS driving simulator (device-based training program)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a new training tool that helps teens with ADHD become safer drivers.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 120 participants. The simulator may not improve real-world driving or work for all teens with ADHD.
