“…Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurodevelopmental disorder of childhood (Perou et al, 2013) and is recognized as a psychiatric condition associated with adverse outcomes that significantly affect individuals throughout the lifespan (Shaw et al, 2012). Experimental (Alderson et al, 2010; Rapport et al, 2008) and meta-analytic (Kasper et al, 2012; Martinussen et al, 2005) research has provided extensive evidence of working memory impairments in ADHD, and converging evidence indicates that children with ADHD are impaired across each domain of working memory, including the central executive (Rapport et al, 2008), the visuospatial and phonological storage/rehearsal subsystems (Kasper et al, 2012; Martinussen et al, 2005; Rapport et al, 2008), and more recently, the episodic buffer (Alderson et al, 2022). In particular, ADHD-related phonological working memory impairments have garnered interest due to reliable evidence of moderate- to large-magnitude between-group (ADHD vs. typically developing [TD]) effects (ranging from d = 0.42 to 2.78; Kasper et al, 2012; Martinussen et al, 2005), as well their association with comorbid learning disorders (DuPaul et al, 2013) and a wide range of academic difficulties, including math performance (Rogers et al, 2011), word recognition skills (Swanson & Howell, 2001), and reading comprehension (Rogers et al, 2011).…”
