An Analysis of Attentional Components in Hyperactive and Normal Boys.

Brown, Ronald T.; Wynne, Martha Ellen

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v17 n3 p162-66 Mar 1984

Attentional performance was examined in hyperactive and normal 10- and 14-year-old boys. Multivariate analyses followed by univariate tests indicated that both age groups of normal Ss were superior to hyperactive Ss in attentional performance while hyperactive adolescents demonstrated significant improvement with age only in coming to attention.
