[eng] People with attention deficit disorder (ADHD) have particular difficulty in identifying and
processing negative emotions. The Sant Joan de Déu hospital in Barcelona has proposed the
Mindfulness for Health (M4H) program, a structured mindfulness-based program that appears
to improve emotional regulation in children with ADHD. The overall objective of this work is
to evaluate its benefits on the symptoms of the disorder (inattention, hyperactivity and
impulsivity), on emotional regulation, on a measure of child psychopathology and in a
measure of sustained attention. The sample was made up of 19 children between 7 and 12
years old with a previous diagnosis of ADHD. A quasi-experimental design was carried out
where 11 children were part of the treatment group, while 8 were in a waiting list condition.
The benefits of the program were found by analyzing the pre-post change score using the
Residual Gain Score. Significant improvements were found in the treatment group for the
following variables: emotional dysregulation (p = .006), attention problems (p = .021), slow
cognitive tempo (p = .021), aggressiveness (p = .001), and trouble following the rules (p =
.041). The results suggest that the M4H program is a feasible intervention that can improve
the neurocognitive, emotional, and behavioral difficulties of children with ADHD |
