Objective: The aim of current study was to comparing neuropsychological indicators related to executive functions in children with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with and without conduct disorder (CD) and normal children.
Methods: The current research was a descriptive and causal-comparative study. The statistical population included all children with pure ADHD or comorbid with CD (ADHD+CD) who were studying in special schools and in regular schools at the Kurdistan province. A sample of 111 children were selected using the purposive sampling method. Research tools were Children Symptom Inventory, Connors’ Continuous Performance Test, Go/No-Go Task, and Stroop Task. The research data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and Sheffe's post hoc test in SPSS-22.
Results: No significant difference was found between the ADHD and ADHD+CD groups in the sustained attention, but significant difference was observed in the impulse control between the ADHD+CD and the normal groups.
Conclusion: Findings can have practical implications in providing cognitive rehabilitation interventions for children with ADHD and CD. Strengthening the executive functions of these children through targeted and focused interventions on executive functions associated with sustained attention and impulse control plays a key role in improving the academic and educational abilities of these children.
