Abstract

Background: Based on dysexecutive function theory of Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), inhibitory control plays a crucial role in ADHD symptoms and respective behavioral problems.

Methods: In the present study, 30 preschoolers with ADHD were recruited in a random clinical trial design in two control and intervention groups. The Flanker and Go/No-Go tasks, Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham Rating Scale, and Child Behavior Checklist were used for assessment at baseline, after the intervention, and 1-month follow-up sessions. The program for attentive rehabilitation of inhibition and selective attention (PARISA) was used for intervention in 10-12 sessions.

Results: Findings showed an improvement in prepotent inhibition and interference control in the intervention group. Furthermore, the hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms were ameliorated, and the externalizing behavioral problems were improved after the intervention.

Conclusion: Inhibitory control in preschoolers with ADHD is trainable, and the training gain could be transferred to ADHD symptoms and externalizing behavior.

抑制控制训练改善注意缺陷多动障碍症状和外化行为。

背景:基于注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的执行功能障碍理论，抑制控制在ADHD症状和相应的行为问题中起着至关重要的作用。方法:采用随机临床试验设计，将30名学龄前ADHD儿童分为对照组和干预组。使用Flanker和Go/No-Go任务、Swanson、Nolan和Pelham评定量表和儿童行为检查表在基线、干预后和1个月的随访期间进行评估。在10-12个疗程中，采用抑制和选择性注意的注意康复计划(PARISA)进行干预。结果:干预组阳痿抑制及干预控制均有改善。此外，干预后多动/冲动症状得到改善，外化行为问题得到改善。结论:学龄前ADHD儿童的抑制性控制是可训练的，训练收益可转移到ADHD症状和外化行为上。
