Abstract

The current research aims to design a computerized training program based on working memory and to identify its effect on the manifestations of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The research sample consisted of (9) students from the sixth grade of primary school at Al-Shaheed Ibrahim Mustafa School affiliated to Tammy Al-Amdeed Educational Administration, Dakahlia Governorate, their ages ranged between (11.4 &12.2) with an average of (11.75) years and a standard deviation of (0.28). The computerized training program (prepared by the researchers) and the Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Scale were used in the light of the fifth diagnostic manual issued by the American Psychiatric Association, prepared by Sayed ( 2018) and Raven's Color Progressive Matrices Test as well. The results of the research indicated that there were statistically significant differences between the mean ranks of the scores of the pre and posttests of the experimental group in the manifestations of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, in favor of the pre-test, which indicates a reduction in the manifestations of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder among the participants in the research.
