Review of cognitive, cognitive-behavioral, and neural-based interventions for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Abstract

Primary evidence-based treatment approaches for ADHD involve pharmacological and behavioral treatments. However, there continue to be investigations of cognitive-behavioral, cognitive, and neural-based intervention approaches that are not considered evidence-based practice. These particular treatments are summarized, as they all involve training in cognitive skills or cognitive strategies. We identified 26 studies (six cognitive-behavioral, six cognitive, and 14 neural-based), and calculated effect sizes where appropriate. Overall, our analysis suggests that further research is needed to determine the efficacy of these approaches on both cognitive and behavioral outcome measures, but that some of these methods show promise for treating ADHD. We discuss some important conceptual and methodological issues that need to be taken into account for future research in order to evaluate the clinical efficacy of these approaches.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
