TI  - Parent rated bedtime resistance and comorbidity may predict levels of attention among Turkish children diagnosed with ADHD in on-line education classes during the COVID-19 outbreak
AB  - OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the attention levels, of Turkish children and adolescents with Attention Deficit/  Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in on-line education classes with healthy controls. METHODS: This study is a cross-sectional, internet-based, case-control study that recruited 6–18 years old patients diag- nosed with ADHD and receving treatment and healthy controls from eight centers. The measurements used in the study were  prepared in the google survey and delivered to the participants via Whatsapp application. RESULTS: Within the study period, 510 children with ADHD and 893 controls were enrolled. Parent- rated attention de- creased significantly in both groups during on-line education classes due to COVID-19 outbreak (p<0.001; for each). Children  and  adolescents  with  ADHD  had  significantly  elevated  bedtime  resistance,  problems  in  family  functioning  difficulties  than  control children according to parental reports (p=0.003; p<0.001; p<0.001, respectively). Furthermore, bedtime resistance  and comorbidity significantly predicted attention levels in on-line education. CONCLUSION: Our findings may underline the need to augment student engagement in on-line education both for children  without attention problems and those with ADHD. Interventions shown to be effective in the management of sleep difficulties  in children as well as parent management interventions should continue during on-line education.
