Stimulus-Control Factors in Search Performance of Hyperactive Children.

Zentall, Sydney S.

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v18 n8 p480-85 Oct 1985

Performance of hyperactive and control elementary children (total N=70) on a noncolored search task was compared with a color stimulation version. It was concluded that performance on search-attentional tasks is normalized for hyperactive Ss, by added color, but that gains wear off more rapidly for hyperactive Ss. (CL)
