“…TD tasks have also been adapted, as shown by studies involving alternative tasks. 6,33,34 Regardless of the results, these studies have demonstrated that other types of rewards trigger behavioral responses such as those observed when using money in children and adolescents. In addition, the study by Utsumi et al 34…”

“…Another study used three types of tasks with toys as rewards: hypothetical, real, and a new type entitled as hypothetical with temporal expectation, in which toys were not delivered but delays could be experienced. 34 This was the only task that showed significant betweengroup differences. Both studies covered the same age group, i.e., 8-12 years old.…”

“…However, this difference occurred specifically for girls and in a condition with real rewards and delays (d = .480). The second study [44] observed a greater TD in children with ADHD when compared to typically developing children (η 2 partial = .092) but only in the condition with hypothetical rewards and real delays.…”

Background Deficits in working memory tasks have been widely documented in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) studies. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of working memory load in impulsivity during decision-making processes. A delayed discounting (DD) paradigm was used, comparing children with ADHD and age-matched controls. Method Thirty-two children equally divided between typically developing and ADHD, from 8 to 10 years of age were assigned to sessions of a dual-task paradigm. In the primary task the child has to choose between two different amounts of money at different time delays, while in the secondary task the child has to repeat a random series of digits with different lengths. The experiment was conducted in a school setting. Results Compared to peers with typical development, delayed discounting was significantly stronger in children with ADHD and discounting rates increased in both groups for heavier memory loads. Furthermore, the memory load impact on frequency of immediate rewards was stronger in children with ADHD compared to typically developing children. Discussion Results are discussed in terms of the relation between working memory load and decision-making processes, their impact on impulsive behaviour in ADHD and the need for future research to understand possible neurocognitive correlates and use that information to develop better inclusive policies.

“…However, there was a moderate effect size in the comparison of ADHD children and controls (d = .332). According to Dias and colleagues [66] , ADHD-C discount value significantly more than controls (d = .442). Nevertheless, in the comparison analysis in correlation analysis controlling age and gender and correcting for multiple comparisons, only the correlations with the AUC measures remained significant, considering the diagnoses (d = .327).…”
