Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) as a Cognitive Functioning Enhancement Treatment for ADHD Patients Compared to Healthy Controls

This study will examine the possible effects of tDCS (Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) treatment to the left DLPFC on cognitive functions which were found to be deficient amongst ADHD patients. The study will include 100 subjects, 50 of whom diagnosed with ADHD. Subjects will complete the ASRS questionnaire to measure ADHD symptoms severity. Next, subjects will complete a series of cognitive tasks, after which they will receive either tDCS treatment or a sham treatment. Finally, subjects will repeat the cognitive tasks. Later that day, a telephonic follow up will take place. ADHD symptoms will be assessed again the next day.
