FERNANDES, Mariana Coelho Carvalho; CIASCA, Sylvia Maria; CAPELATTO, Iuri Victor  y  SALGADO-AZONI, Cintia Alves. Effect of a psychomotor intervention program for children with ADHD. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.1, pp.1-11. ISSN 1413-294X.  https://doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20190001.

This study verified the effectiveness of a psychomotor intervention program for children with ADHD. The study compared the psychomotor and cognitive performance of children with ADHD submitted and not submitted to psychomotor intervention. Twenty-six male children, 14 with ADHD, divided into experimental group I and II (GE I / GE II), and 12 with typical development grouped into the control group (CG) participated in the study. The children of the GE performed psychomotor and cognitive evaluation at both moments, pre- and post-intervention, and were compared to the CG in the evaluation after the intervention. There were statistically significant differences in the classification scores of the psychomotor profile and in the attention tests and executive functions. It was observed a tendency of improvement indicated by the increase of the means of the functions of body notion, equilibration, temporal space structure, fine praxis, laterality and tonicity, respectively. The results suggest that psychomotor intervention was effective for the treatment of children with ADHD in this study.

Palabras clave : attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; psychomotor performance; attention; executive functions.
