The purpose of this research is to compare time Perception in two groups of children having attention deficit disorder/hyperactivity and normal ones. In the current post hapening research, 26 boys having a combination of attention deficit disorder/hyperactivity and 19 normal boys from the city of Tehran participated. In this research the revised copy of Conners Teachers Classification Scale (Conners, 1997) was utilized. Also, Barkly Method (2001) was used in the assessment of time Perception between these two groups. To analyze the data the independent statistical test was used. The results indicated that children having attention deficit disorder/ are inferior to normal children in performance in all three determined time periods and the difference between the two groups was significant. The analysis of data using the independent T test shows the difference in time Perception between children having attention deficit disorder/hyperactivity and normal children to be significant. In other words, children suffering from attention deficit disorder/hyperactivity are less aware of time Perception and are not able to plan activities based on time Perception.
