To examine between-groups differences in the associations between aspects of processing speed assessed with an inspection time task and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms.
Two groups comprising 34 children with cerebral palsy (CP) and 70 nonaffected peers (control), ages 8-16 years, participated in a prospective correlational study. Measures included a visual inspection time task and the Conners' Parent Rating Scale-Revised: Long Version.
Children with CP exhibited significantly slower processing speed and more symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity than controls. Significant associations between inspection time and ADHD symptoms were found only in the control group.
Findings have implications for clinical assessment and understanding of attentional risks associated with CP.
考察使用检查时间任务评估的处理速度的各个方面与注意力缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)症状之间的组间差异。
共有 34 名脑瘫(CP)儿童和 70 名无影响的同龄儿童(对照组)参与了一项前瞻性相关研究,年龄为 8-16 岁。测量包括视觉检查时间任务和康纳斯父母评定量表修订版:长版。
CP 儿童的处理速度明显较慢,注意力不集中和多动症状比对照组更明显。仅在对照组中发现检查时间与 ADHD 症状之间存在显著关联。
这些发现对 CP 相关注意力风险的临床评估和理解具有重要意义。
