An observational study in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Healthy Controls, sponsored by University of Michigan. Withdrawn at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 35 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-11-07.
Sponsored by University of Michigan · Observational
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).

100 adult participants will be recruited for this study: 50 adults diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and 50 healthy controls.
Inclusion Criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) group:
Exclusion Criteria for all:
This study aims to recruit 100 adult participants: 50 of which are adults diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and 50 healthy controls. All participants will perform a total of two tasks while connected to electroencephalogram (EEG) sensors; the first task is a resting state task and after that a cognitive challenge task (attention control). Study activity is performed in a single visit which lasts two hours. Participants will also be asked to complete some behavioral questionnaires.

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.

Brain Wave Measurements
Measurement of electroencephalogram amplitude and coherence in alpha, gamma, and theta brain wave bands.
Time frame: Two years
Default Network Signatures
Measurement of the brain's default network consisting of interconnected midline and lateral parietal regions involved in internally directed mentation.
Time frame: two years
Comparison of dependent measurements between Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and healthy controls
Comparison of dependent measures (i.e., computer tasks performed during electroencephalogram \[EEG\]: the Resting task and the Attention Control Task) between Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and healthy controls with independent sample t-tests.
Time frame: two years
