Summary
This study tested whether listening to white noise or seeing visual pixel noise can help children with ADHD perform better on attention tasks. Sixty children (some with ADHD, some without) completed eye-tracking exercises while exposed to different types of noise. The goal was to see if the noise could improve focus and self-control in the ADHD group, possibly matching the performance of typically developing children.
