Kids With ADHD May Benefit From ‘Brain Wave’ Training in School

Coverage of the results of that Tufts trial, published in Pediatrics. 104 children with ADHD in 19 Boston-area elementary schools had neurofeedback, computer attention training or neither, in three 45-minute sessions a week. The neurofeedback group improved most in attention and executive function and kept the gains six months later, without the medication increases seen in the other groups. Outside experts called it a well-controlled study but noted the cost and limited availability.
