简要总结
A preliminary clinical trial of ACTIVATE will be conducted in a sample of children with ADHD. ACTIVATE is a computerized neurocognitive training program (ACTIVATE; see: www.c8sciences.com) that simultaneously targets eight core neurocognitive factors (i.e., sustained attention, working memory (WM), response inhibition, speed of information processing, cognitive flexibility and control, multiple simultaneous attention, category formation, and pattern recognition and inductive thinking).
详细描述
In an open clinical trial, ACTIVATE, a computer-based neurocognitive intervention will be evaluated to determine its effectiveness in improving symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and related impairments. ACTIVATE is a computerized neurocognitive training program (ACTIVATE; see: www.c8sciences.com) that simultaneously targets eight core neurocognitive factors (i.e., sustained attention, working memory (WM), response inhibition, speed of information processing, cognitive flexibility and control, multiple simultaneous attention, category formation, and pattern recognition and inductive thinking). Youth between the ages of 7-11 will be recruited and assessed for ADHD and assigned to the ACTIVATE intervention. Assessment of outcomes will occur before, weekly during treatment, and immediately post-treatment.

研究组 & 干预措施
ACTIVATE
ACTIVATE is a computerized neurocognitive training program (ACTIVATE; see: www.c8sciences.com) that simultaneously targets eight core neurocognitive factors (i.e., sustained attention, working memory (WM), response inhibition, speed of information processing, cognitive flexibility and control, multiple simultaneous attention, category formation, and pattern recognition and inductive thinking). ACTIVATE Is completed at home via computer with parent support. ACTIVATE intervention is conducted 3-5 times per week for between 20-30 minutes over the course or 3-4 months.
