Abstract
ADHD has been studied over years regarding its characteristics, assessments and treatments. However, rapid advances in technology encourages both clinician and clients to search for an acceptable, interesting and better treatment for individuals with ADHD so that they can have better attention and impulse control. Technology helps to enable more specific and personalized treatment which is suitable for ADHD. Difficulties in paying attention, following the rules, and restraining movement is common in ADHD patients. This can be caused by executive function impairment. Therefore, cognitive training is needed. One of the ways to make cognitive training more engaging and pleasurable is through games. It is believed as a promising method to treat individuals with ADHD. The aim of this review is to investigate the alternative treatment for ADHD, especially with the variety of technology, including games. This is a literature review study obtained from research articles and survey books that are relevant to ADHD and cognitive training that was focusing on the last 10 years. To sum up, technology based cognitive training can be an option that shows promising results. However, further studies should consider motivation as it is a crucial role in determining the participant’s persistence.
