Training Executive, Attention and Motor Skills (TEAMS): Preliminary Studies

Training Executive, Attention and Motor Skills (TEAMS) is a new research program for
preschool children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) that attempts to use
game-like activities and physical exercise to promote the growth of neural processes that
underlie the core features of the disorder (e.g., hyperactivity, impulsivity) as well as
associated areas of difficulty (e.g., socialization, motor skills). These activities are
implemented at home and in supervised playgroups at no cost to families and are coupled with
extensive parental education about ADHD symptoms and associated impairments.
