Verification of deficient learning skills in diagnostic hypotheses of ADHD: An experience report

Abstract

Learning skills are fundamental to the educational context, as they directly influence students' academic success and throughout their lives. Therefore, this article is an experience report on the verification of deficient learning skills in cases of students with predominantly inattentive Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). For data collection, non-restricted neuropsychopedagogical tests were applied to a random sample of 9 children, female (n=4) e male (n=5). The tests were carried out in a private clinic in the city of Ijuí, a Brazilian municipality located in Rio Grande do Sul. It was observed that the performances were deficient in auditory skills and executive functions, followed by emotional aspects. Previous studies by different authors corroborated the results of this research.
