Abstract

This case study aimed to verify the results of cortical stimulation in the short-term memory, concentration and motor reaction time of a child with diagnosis of ADHD (disturber and attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder). These variables were measured before and after five rounds of 15 minutes of audiovisual stimulation with frequencies from 08 to 13hz. The results showed an improvement of 350% in the test of concentration, 25% in the test of short-term memory and no significance to test the reaction time. It follows that the audiovisual stimulation may be an adjuvant in aid to people suffering from ADHD, especially in tasks involving the compendiums bioperactionalitys of short-term memory and focused attention .
