Abstract

Objective: This study examines the impact of visual and auditory distractors on attention and inhibition in children with and without ADHD.

Method: The study used the MOXO d-CPT child version. The sample consisted of 208 children aged 8 to 12 years, including 64 with ADHD and 144 controls.

Results: Children with ADHD and controls differed in their reaction to distracting stimuli; visual distractors cause a higher decrease in sustained attention and inhibitory control in the ADHD group. Moreover, auditory distractors generate improved performance in the control group but not in the ADHD group. In addition, age-related effects were found in both sustained attention and inhibitory control in all children, regardless of whether the ADHD condition was present.

Conclusions: The findings indicate that children with ADHD performed poorer compared to controls, and that distractors differently affected the performance of the two groups.

注意力分散对多动症儿童持续注意力和抑制能力的影响。

研究目的本研究探讨视觉和听觉干扰物对多动症儿童和非多动症儿童的注意力和抑制能力的影响：研究采用 MOXO d-CPT 儿童版。样本由 208 名 8 至 12 岁的儿童组成，其中包括 64 名多动症儿童和 144 名对照组儿童：多动症儿童和对照组儿童对干扰刺激的反应不同；视觉干扰会导致多动症组儿童的持续注意力和抑制控制能力下降。此外，听觉分心刺激会提高对照组的成绩，但不会提高多动症组的成绩。此外，无论是否患有多动症，所有儿童的持续注意力和抑制控制能力都会受到年龄的影响：结论：研究结果表明，与对照组相比，多动症儿童的成绩较差，而分心物对两组儿童成绩的影响不同。
