Abstract

This review provides an overview of available approaches for cognitive training for the treatment of ADHD and presents the evidence of their effectiveness. A number of different approaches (e.g. targeting attention, working memory, and inhibition) have been explored. The findings, although encouraging, do not at present provide conclusive evidence for the efficacy of process-specific training as an intervention for ADHD. Methodological considerations are discussed in the review, and directions for future research are outlined.
