研究概览
简要总结
Standardized tests such as the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and the brazilian National High School Exam (ENEM) give more time for students with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorders (ADHD) to complete the exam. The goal of this study is to find out if giving students with ADHD more time on tests actually helps them. Additionally, the research aims to find out if more time helps students without ADHD too or not, or even if it only helps students with certain traits.
详细描述
Initially, the participants of this study will fill out forms and questionnaires online. Then, they will go through a psychiatric evaluation, where they will talk to a psychiatrist, and neuropsychological testing, where they will do some mental activities. Later on, they will do a mock test of the ENEM, with and without extra time.
