Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Mapping the impact of MPH on reward sensitivity and learning processes in children with ADHD. Effect measures: - Impact of MPH on the score of the three computerized tasks that measure reward sensitivity and learning and changes in heart rate response to reward in a group of children with ADHD. The scores will be compared to the score of a group of healthy (medication free) controls to investigate whether MPH can normalize performance in the ADHD group.	—
