Abstract

Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder usually have problem to express themselves. Using game as a therapy, they could reduce the problem. A recent study has revealed video games might be an alternative therapy for children with ADHD. This research is to analyze the data that was collected from a prototype game that has been developed and created. The game is created using Construct2. To collect data from the game, back-end web application was created using PHP and MySQL. Several data that have been used in this research paper are score, incorrect house, and incorrect fruit. Ten children with ADHD are involved in this testing, all children are elementary students and never receive any treatment for their ADHD. Before and after the testing, they have been tested by fMRI. The testing consists of 4 weeks of training sessions of about 20-30 minutes almost every day except Sunday or public holiday. Every session contains at least three tutorial or training tasks and four game tasks in a fixed order. In conclusion, the result showed the scores were better when the children with ADHD play with visual instruction rather than with audio instruction.
