Children with ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder) show more variable or inconsistent responses during short-term memory tasks when compared with typically developing peers, a study by UC Davis M.I.N.D. Institute Julie Schweitzer has found.

“Our study helps explain why working memory may be fine at one moment and poor at another, just as one day a child with ADHD seems to be able to learn and focus in class and on another day seems distracted and not paying attention,” Schweitzer said.

Also Schweitzer stated, “We found that higher levels of hyperactivity and restlessness or impulsivity correlated with slower reaction times.”

The study was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and the University of Maryland.
