Can a virtual classroom train young brains to tune out distractions?

This study tests whether a virtual reality program can help children with ADHD improve their attention by repeatedly exposing them to distractions in a simulated classroom. The idea is that, like getting used to a loud noise, children may become less reactive to distracting sights and sounds over time. Researchers will measure eye and head movements toward distractions, as well as behavior and clinical ratings, to see if the training works.
