Abstrakt: Objective: To examine cognitive effects of neurofeedback (NF) for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as a secondary outcome of a randomized clinical trial.
Method: In a double-blind randomized clinical trial (NCT02251743), 133 7-10-year olds with ADHD received either 38 sessions of NF ( n = 78) or control treatment ( n = 55) and performed an integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test at baseline, mid- and end-treatment. We used the diffusion decision model to decompose integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test performance at each assessment into cognitive components: efficiency of integrating stimulus information ( v ), context sensitivity ( c v ), response cautiousness ( a ), response bias ( z/a ), and nondecision time for perceptual encoding and response execution ( T er ). Based on prior findings, we tested whether the components known to be deficient improved with NF and explored whether other cognitive components improved using linear mixed modeling.
Results: Before NF, children with ADHD showed main deficits in integrating stimulus information ( v ), which led to less accurate and slower responses than healthy controls ( p = .008). The NF group showed significantly more improvement in integrating auditory stimulus information ( v ) than control treatment (significant group-by-time-by-modality effect: p = .044).
Conclusions: NF seems to improve v , deficient in ADHD. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
