Abstract

The attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood characterized mainly by a failure in executive functions. Often associated reading difficulties which could be attributed to failure in executive functions, being possible a relationship between them and poor performance in phonological awareness. The main objective of this study was to assess the effects of an intervention program focused on executive functioning over phonological awareness and reading in a 7 year old boy with ADHD.
