Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with memory deficiencies. In the current study we compared different aspects of verbal memory using standard and constructed measures of the Rey auditory verbal learning test (RAVLT). Performance on learning and recognition measures of RAVLT was similar in both ADHD and control groups. In contrast, adults with ADHD committed more double recalls and intrusion errors, indicating inaccurate recall processes. These findings suggest that memory problems in adults with ADHD may be caused by deficient executive processes that support retrieval from memory.
注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)与记忆缺陷有关。在本研究中,我们使用雷伊听觉词语学习测验(RAVLT)的标准和自编测量方法,比较了言语记忆的不同方面。ADHD组和对照组在RAVLT的学习和识别测量中的表现相似。相比之下,患有ADHD的成年人出现更多的重复回忆和侵入性错误,表明回忆过程不准确。这些发现表明,患有ADHD的成年人的记忆问题可能是由支持从记忆中检索信息的执行过程缺陷所致。
