Introduction: This research was conducted with the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of computerized cognitive rehabilitation on attention and working memory of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
Method: The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test and follow-up plan with a control group. The population of this research was all children aged 7 to 11 with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder who referred to pediatric psychiatrists and child psychologists in Tehran in the months of April to September 1401, and among them, 45 children were selected using a targeted sampling method. They were randomly selected and replaced in three equal groups of 15 people. IVA software and Wechsler working memory test (WISC-R) were used to collect data. SPSS software and multivariate covariance analysis tests were used for data analysis.
Results: The results showed that the effectiveness of computerized cognitive rehabilitation training was effective on the attention and working memory of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (p<0.01).
Conclusion: Computerized cognitive rehabilitation training can be an effective therapeutic approach to improve attention and working memory of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
