A Comparative Study of Participation in Extracurricular Activities between Children with and without Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
Based on this study's findings, children between the ages of 7 and 11 with ADHD experience significant limitations in engaging in daily activities compared to their typical peers. According to the results, including extracurricular activities in treatment plans seems particularly significant. Therapists and parents should focus on the child's daily life at home and in therapy sessions and emphasize the inclusion of extracurricular activities in the treatment of children with ADHD.
