Verbal Memory Interference in Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Meta-Analytic Review (2022, background): “Within the last decade, several computerized cognitive training programs have been developed that aim to improve executive dysfunction among those with ADHD (e.g., Cogmed; Klingberg et al., 2002).”
Human functional neuroimaging of brain changes associated with practice. (2005, background): “Furthermore, the fact that changes in horizontal connectivity may be the basis of practice-related changes in primary cortex is concordant with the observation that experience produces increases in dendritic length in posterior cortex, as discussed above (Kolb and Gibb, 2002).”
The Development of Executive Attention: Contributions to the Emergence of Self-Regulation (2005, methodology): “Other forms of attention training for children with ADHD have also improved performance on abstract reasoning as measured by Raven’s Progressive Matrices ( Klingsberg, Forssberg, & Westerberg, 2002 ), suggesting that training of attention may benefit cognitive functioning extending over a range of t”
Intelligence: new findings and theoretical developments. (2012, positive): “Klingberg, Forssberg, and Westerberg (2002) provided memory training to both children with attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and to adults and found marked improvement in performance on Raven’s Progressive Matrices for both groups.”
