The primary objective of this study was to examine the effects of the Cogmed training program on working memory among youths 7 to 13 years old, while controlling presence and presentation of ADHD-related comorbidity. A secondary objective was to examine the generalization of effects to ADHD symptoms, non-verbal reasoning, attentional and executive functions, motor impulsivity, reading comprehension, and mathematical reasoning. Participants were under pharmacological treatment for ADHD combined type and a comorbidity. They were randomized into an experimental group that received the Cogmed program and an active control group that received a low-intensity comparison version of the training. They were evaluated at three time points: six weeks prior to intervention onset (T1), immediately prior to onset(T2), and one week following intervention completion (T3).
