“…Common comorbidities included a quarter with learning disorders, half with disruptive behavior disorder (DBD) such as oppositional de ant disorder (ODD) and conduct disorder (CD), a third with anxiety (Reale et al, 2017;Sonnack & Brenneman, 2014, MTA Cooperative Group, 1999a).

Introduction: We examined psychiatric comorbidities moderation of a 2-site double-blind randomized clinical trial of theta/beta-ratio (TBR) neurofeedback (NF) for attention de cit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods:Seven-to-ten-year-olds with ADHD received either NF (n=84) or Control (n=58) for 38 treatments.Outcome was change in parent-/teacher-rated inattention from baseline to end-of-treatment (acute effect), and 13-month-follow-up. Seventy percent had at least one comorbidity: oppositional de ant disorder (ODD) (50%), speci c phobias (27%), generalized anxiety (23%), separation anxiety (16%). Comorbidities were grouped into anxiety alone (20%), ODD alone (23%), neither (30%), or both (27%).Results: Comorbidity (p=0.043) moderated acute effect; those with anxiety-alone responded better to Control than to TBR NF (d=-0.79, CI -1.55--0.04), and the other groups showed a slightly better response to TBR NF than to Control (d=0.22~0.31, CI -0.3-0.98). At 13-months, ODD-alone group responded better to NF than Control (d=0.74, CI 0.05-1.43).
