Abstract

Introduction: Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)is recognized as one of the most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorders affecting children. Objective: The recent research aimed to compare the effectiveness of computerized cognitive rehabilitation and Neuropsychological practical exercises on Working memory and Clinical symptoms of children with ADHD. Method: The present research was quasi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test, and follow-up design with a control group. The statistical population consisted of all 7-11-year-old children with ADHD referring to psychiatrists and child psychologists in Tehran during the first six months of 2022, among them 45 children were selected by purposeful sampling method and were randomly assigned to three equal groups (each group 15 people). Wechsler Working memory Test (1974) and the Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham’s Questionnaire-Version IV(1980) were used for data collection, and SPSS software version 24 and multivariate analysis of covariance(MANCOVA)tests were used for data analysis. Results: The results indicated a significant difference between the scores of the control and experimental groups (P=0. 001). Compared to the control group, the experimental groups improved the Working memory and Clinical symptoms of children with ADHD. Moreover, no significant difference was found between the two experimental groups regarding changes in Working memory and Clinical symptoms(P>0. 05). Conclusion: According to the results, there is a significant difference between the effectiveness of the intervention of computerized cognitive rehabilitation and Neuropsychological practical exercises and the control group on improving Working memory and Clinical symptoms, with the effectiveness higher in both experimental groups
