Summary

The purpose of this research is to assess and determine brain oscillations or "brain signatures" of adult participants with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) relative to adult participants without ADHD using the technique electroencephalogram (EEG). Electroencephalogram is entirely non-invasive way of tracking brain activity.The main goal of this study is to establish biological factors for determining the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Conditions

  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Healthy Controls

Interventions

DEVICE

Electroencephalogram (EEG)

The electroencephalogram assesses brain electrical activity through surface recording disks (electrodes) which are placed near the participants' head using a custom designed Lycra cap. The electrodes transmit the signals which are then amplified and stored on a computer. The procedure is entirely non-invasive. Once an accurate signal is assured, the signal derived from the electrode cap is then amplified, transmitted to a computer, and stored for later analysis. Each participant will undergo the electroencephalogram (EEG) procedure only once for the duration of 30-45 minutes.
