IMPROVING THE COGNITIVE SPHERE IN CHILDREN WITH ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER THROUGH THE USE OF THE MUSIC THERAPY (LITERATURE REVIEW)

The article analyzes 52 foreign sources (of which 87% were publications over the last five years). It has been shown that children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, when playing a musical instrument, there is an improvement in the cognitive aspect: concentration and distribution of attention, non-verbal intelligence, and academic performance. It is emphasized that although playing a musical instrument can be a means of improving the cognitive aspect for children of primary school age with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, this method of correcting this condition is still in the process of research. Taking into account the available positive research results, theoretical research results should be applied in a practical way to improve the functioning of the cognitive sphere of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and facilitate the adaptation of such children to the academic process.
