Correlazione tra deficit di memoria di lavoro e compromissione funzionale delle relazioni sociali in un gruppo di bambini con ADHD

Literature shows that children with ADHD present inhibition deficit and social skills problems. In the present paper a group of ADHD children and a control group were compared in four Working Memory (WM) tasks (two verbal and two visuo-spatial) and on social skills (subscale F of Conners rating scale). Results showed a significant difference on active visuo-spatial WM task and on social skills. Correlation between social skills problems and WM tasks resulted significant. The results of the present paper confirm only partially literature results.
