What this trial studies

This trial investigates the feasibility of two non-pharmacological interventions for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in college students. Participants will be randomized into three groups: one receiving standard care plus tai chi, another receiving standard care plus an exercise class, and a control group receiving standard care alone. The study aims to assess recruitment and retention rates, adherence to interventions, and changes in ADHD symptoms using various outcome measures over an 8-week period. The primary focus is on the reduction of inattention symptoms as measured by the Conners Adult ADHD Rating Scale.
