Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

317
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Area of Science:

  • Multidisciplinary research integrating neuroscience, psychiatry, artificial intelligence, machine learning, virtual reality, and biomedical engineering.
  • Focus on understanding neurodevelopmental disorders and cognitive functions in pediatric populations.

Background:

  • Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) presents significant challenges in diagnosis and intervention.
  • Existing diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for ADHD can be enhanced by objective, technology-driven methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a scoping review on the application of eye-tracking technology in children with ADHD.
  • To identify involved scientific fields, methodologies, research aims, and effectiveness outcomes.
  • To synthesize current knowledge on eye-tracking's role in ADHD diagnosis and intervention.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic search and analysis of 22 studies involving eye-tracking and children diagnosed with ADHD.
  • Adherence to PRISMA guidelines for Scoping Reviews.
  • Data extraction on study objectives, methodologies, disciplinary origins, and key findings.

Main Results:

  • Eye-tracking is utilized for ADHD identification/diagnosis, investigating cognitive/behavioral mechanisms (attention, inhibition), and as an intervention tool.
  • Integration with virtual reality and machine learning shows potential for efficient ADHD diagnosis.
  • Distinct eye movement patterns correlate with attention deficits, inhibitory control issues, working memory impairments, and socio-emotional processing challenges.
  • Interventions using eye-tracking demonstrate efficacy in training attention control and motor coordination.

Conclusions:

  • Eye-tracking technology offers significant potential as both a diagnostic aid and an interventional tool for pediatric ADHD.
  • Future research should focus on addressing methodological limitations and evaluating long-term effectiveness.
  • Further exploration of multimodal integration with emerging technologies is recommended to advance ADHD care.
