Kids with ADHD
must squirm to learn, study says

Summary:
Excessive movement
common among children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is actually
vital to how they remember information and work out complex cognitive tasks, a
new study shows. The findings show the longtime prevailing methods for helping
children with ADHD may be misguided.
.............
for decades, frustrated
parents and teachers have barked at fidgety children with ADHD to "Sit
still and concentrate!"
But new research conducted at UCF shows that if you want ADHD kids to
learn, you have to let them squirm. The foot-tapping, leg-swinging and
chair-scooting movements of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity
disorder are actually vital to how they remember information and work out
complex cognitive tasks, according to a study published in an early online
release of the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology.
The findings show the longtime prevailing methods for helping children with
ADHD may be misguided.
"The typical interventions target reducing hyperactivity. It's exactly
the opposite of what we should be doing for a majority of children with
ADHD," said one of the study's authors, Mark Rapport, head of the
Children's Learning Clinic at the University of Central Florida. "The
message isn't 'Let them run around the room,' but you need to be able to
facilitate their movement so they can maintain the level of alertness necessary
for cognitive activities."
The research has major implications for how parents and teachers should
deal with ADHD kids, particularly with the increasing weight given to students'
performance on standardized testing. The study suggests that a majority of
students with ADHD could perform better on classroom work, tests and homework
if they're sitting on activity balls or exercise bikes, for instance.
The study at the UCF clinic included 52 boys ages 8 to 12. Twenty-nine of
the children had been diagnosed with ADHD and the other 23 had no clinical disorders
and showed normal development.
Each child was asked to perform a series of standardized tasks designed to
gauge "working memory," the system for temporarily storing and
managing information required to carry out complex cognitive tasks such as
learning, reasoning and comprehension.
Children were shown a series of jumbled numbers and a letter that flashed
onto a computer screen, then asked to put the numbers in order, followed by the
letter. A high-speed camera recorded the kids, and observers recorded their
every movement and gauged their attention to the task.
Rapport's previous research had already shown that the excessive movement
that's a trademark of hyperactive children -- previously thought to be
ever-present -- is actually apparent only when they need to use the brain's
executive brain functions, especially their working memory.
The new study goes an important step further, proving the movement serves a
purpose.
"What we've found is that when they're moving the most, the majority
of them perform better," Rapport said. "They have to move to maintain
alertness."
By contrast, the children in the study without ADHD also moved more during
the cognitive tests, but it had the opposite effect: They performed worse.
