NCT ID NCT07341204

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether playing a virtual reality game called Electrical Maze can improve sustained attention in neurodivergent children aged 9 to 18, including those with autism, ADHD, or learning differences. Over 6 weeks, 40 participants will play the VR game twice a week for 25 minutes each session. Researchers will measure changes in attention using eye-tracking and a standard attention test.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a fun, non-drug way to help neurodivergent children improve their focus and attention skills.
