摘要：
Children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) commonly experience issues with both cognitive and motor abilities. This study aimed to determine whether a correlation exists between these 2 domains in children with ADHD. Tasks assessing executive function and motor performance were carried out with a sample of 50 children. The data demonstrated significant correlations between performance in motor activities and working memory. Performance in working memory was explained predominantly by manual dexterity and catching and aiming. These results support the hypothesis that training of these motor tasks could improve executive functioning in children with ADHD.
