Abstract

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a psychological pathology that affects children, young people and adults with impulsivity, distractibility, excessive motor activity and difficulties in impulse control. Previous research affirms that about 5% of the population presents this disorder and that its problems generate a negative influence in the family, social, personal, work, and educational environments. The treatment of ADHD is characterized by the application of classic methods of pencil and paper; however, for the current generation it is not a process that is the most attractive. In this context, technological proposals emerge that allow making ADHD treatment a more attractive process for children and young people of today's generation. In this article, a systematic review is made of the various technological proposals created for the treatment of this syndrome. With this work, the clinician specialized in ADHD can count on current tools to incorporate them in his daily work.
