10 children receiving stimulant medication for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder were compared to normal children on cognitive and neuropsychological dimensions in a pilot study. When compared with 10 normal children the ADHD children showed significant differences on cognitive measures, including the Wechsler Developmental Index, the Bender Visual-motor Gestalt Test, and the Benton Revised Visual Retention Test. Elevated levels of polyspike EEG activity were also noted for these children. Analysis suggested that ADHD children receiving stimulant medications may have persisting neuropsychological difficulty. Further research on the neuropsychological correlates of ADHD seems warranted.
在一项初步研究中,将10名接受治疗注意力缺陷多动障碍的兴奋剂药物治疗的儿童与正常儿童在认知和神经心理学方面进行了比较。与10名正常儿童相比,患有注意力缺陷多动障碍的儿童在认知测试中表现出显著差异,包括韦氏发育指数、本德尔视觉运动完形测试和本顿修订视觉记忆测试。这些儿童还被发现有多棘波脑电图活动水平升高的情况。分析表明,接受兴奋剂药物治疗的注意力缺陷多动障碍儿童可能存在持续的神经心理学困难。对注意力缺陷多动障碍的神经心理学相关性进行进一步研究似乎是必要的。
