Abstract
Background: The current study aims to investigate the effects of mindfulness on attention deficit/
hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD). Attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder is a kind of neurodevelopmental
disorder which affects different aspects of life. Children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder have
problem with working memory, response inhibition, attention and social skills. This action allows the child to
review his or her behavior and alter accordingly.
Materials and Methods: Systematic review was used for the data analysis in the present study. The
methodology was also based on the collection, classification and summarization of the findings of research
articles related to mindfulness, attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder and between 2010-2020, derived
from the foreign databases including Eric, Ebsco, Google Scholar, Scopus, Science Direct, and PubMed
using the keywords Mindfulness, Children, Attention Deficit/ Hyperactivity and other related words. In the
initial search, 98 articles were selected and then 12 articles were selected which were entitled Mindfulness
in Children with Attention Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder. Among them, 80 articles were deleted due to
inconsistency with the subject, 5 articles due to age and 1 article due to duplication in several databases,
and finally 12 articles were selected.
Results: The results showed that this treatment is appropriate in reducing the symptoms of AD/HD.
Mindfulness also improves the executive functions, attention, emotions, metacognition and self-regulation
of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Conclusion: Based on the studies, it can be concluded that mindfulness is one of the complementary
therapies for attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder and will be able to improve areas where children with
attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder are deficient.
