Abstract
Working memory training may help children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but robust evidence from systematic reviews is lacking. Children with poor Working memory ability struggle with academic and cognitive work compared to similar-aged peers without working memory deficits. Besides, working memory is correlated with inattention and disorganization in those with ADHD. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the effect of working memory training on symptoms and behaviors of children with ADHD. A search equation was proposed (ADHD OR attention deficit hyperactivity disorder AND working memory training), with twenty-four studies meeting the inclusion criteria in the Clarivate Analytics Web of Science Core Collection database. A bibliometric analysis was conducted to identify the importance of the research topic and a citation network was built to establish the lines of research. Finally, the citation network was exported to Gephi to visualize the research groups studying the topic. Findings suggest 3 lines of research: (a) Effects of working memory training on working memory, and academic performance in children with ADHD, (b) Effects of working memory training on executive functioning and child ADHD related symptoms, (c) Effects of working memory training on brain activity in child ADHD. Implications for clinical practice and school-based interventions are discussed
工作记忆训练可能有助于患有注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的儿童,但缺乏系统评价的有力证据。与没有工作记忆缺陷的同龄人相比,工作记忆能力差的孩子在学术和认知工作方面表现不佳。此外,ADHD患者的工作记忆与注意力不集中和组织紊乱有关。本系统回顾的目的是评估工作记忆训练对ADHD儿童症状和行为的影响。提出了一个搜索方程(ADHD或注意缺陷多动障碍和工作记忆训练),24项研究符合Clarivate Analytics Web of Science Core Collection数据库的纳入标准。通过文献计量分析来确定研究课题的重要性,并建立引文网络来确定研究方向。最后,将引文网络导出到Gephi,以可视化研究该主题的研究小组。研究结果提出了三个研究方向:(a)工作记忆训练对多动症儿童工作记忆和学习成绩的影响,(b)工作记忆训练对执行功能和儿童多动症相关症状的影响,(c)工作记忆训练对多动症儿童大脑活动的影响。对临床实践和学校干预的影响进行了讨论
