Selective Auditory Attention and Children With Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Effects of Repeated Measurement With and Without Methylphenidate
Abstract
The Selective Auditory Attention Test (SAAT) was given to children diagnosed as having Attention-Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) twice: after the administration of methylphenidate, and after the administration of a placebo. Children in the control group were tested twice, but without drugs or placebos. Results revealed no simple drug effect, but a strong order effect. The implications of using the SAAT as a predictor of auditory attention deficits and concerns regarding its test-retest reliability are discussed.

Studies comparing selective attention in children with ADHD to non-ADHD subjects have produced conflicting results.
“Numerous studies have compared selective attention in children diagnosed with ADHD to non-ADHD subjects (e.g [91]). Interestingly, these studies have produced conflicting results, either yielding no clear impairments (e.g. [92,93] ), or rather robust ones (e.g. [94–101] .”

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.
