Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of methylphenidate combined with exercise intervention on at-tention,self-awareness and problem behaviors in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 106 children with ADHD receiving methylphenidate treat-ment.Based on whether exercise intervention was applied,participants were divided into the joint intervention group(n=49)and the control group(n=57).The Integrated Visual and Auditory Continuous Performance Test,Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale,and Conners Parent Symptom Questionnaire(PSQ)were used to measure children's attention,self-awareness,and problem behaviors.Results:After intervention,children in the joint inter-vention group had shorter reaction time,fewer omissions and errors,and lower PSQ scores(in all dimensions except anxiety and depession)than those in the control group.Additionally,their scores on the full response control quo-tient,full attention quotient,auditory response control quotient,visual response control quotient,auditory attention quotient and visual attention quotient,and Piers-Harrisscores in each dimension were higher than those in the control group(Ps＜0.05).Conclusion:Methylphenidate combined with exercise intervention could effectively enhance at-tention and self-awareness of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,and reduce problem behaviors.
