The Effect of Brain Electric Brain Stimulation on Improving the Cognitive Speed of Attention in People with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of cerebellar direct electrical stimulation on the speed of processing in the attention of people with hyperactivity and attention deficit disorder in Tehran.
. This quasi-experimental research was carried out in a pre-test and post-test with control group. The statistical population of the study consisted of all individuals with hyperactivity and attention deficit disorder between the ages of 15 and 18 years in Tehran in 1396, of which 30 were selected as sample size. From the statistical population, 30 subjects in the experimental group and 30 controls were selected by random sampling and randomly selected. For the experimental group, direct brain electric stimulation was performed. Data collection tools consisted of the Vendriota questionnaire and the computer-aided computer visual and audio performance (IVA). To analyze the data, one-variable covariance test was used.
The results of the post-intervention research showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the variable of attention processing speed (visual and auditory). Therefore, it can be said that direct brain electric stimulation is effective in improving the speed of attention processing in people with hyperactivity and attention deficit
