What this trial studies

This study investigates the effects of acoustic and vestibular noise as a non-pharmacological treatment for children diagnosed with ADHD. It aims to determine whether auditory noise can enhance cognitive performance in children with ADHD compared to traditional stimulant medications. Participants will include both children with ADHD and typically developing children, who will be tested in noisy and silent environments while performing cognitive tasks. The study seeks to explore the potential of noise as a complementary or alternative treatment to medication.
