Abstract

ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is one of the most prevalent disorders in Colombia. Executive Functions (EF) play a fundamental role in learning and especially Working Memory (WM). The objective of this study is to identify the relationship between ADHD and WM in boys and girls by searching databases with articles published from 2015 to 2023, research articles on WM with children between the ages of 6 and 14 years diagnosed with ADHD. The authors acknowledge that the WM index is affected in EFs in children with ADHD so it is necessary to further investigate the subtypes of ADHD and to use the MT index as a method of diagnosing ADHD.
