PANEIVA POMPA, Juan Pablo; RUBIALES, Josefina y BAKKER, Liliana. The Rol of Feedback in Decision-Making at Risk in Children and Adolescent with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Act.Colom.Psicol. [online]. 2023, vol.26, n.2, pp.183-197. Epub 28-Sep-2023. ISSN 0123-9155. https://doi.org/10.14718/acp.2023.26.2.15.
Studies on children and adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) often show difficulties in decision-making, linked to riskier behaviors. The aim of the present study was to analyze and compare the process of Decision Making Under Risk (DMUR) in children and adolescents with ADHD considering the types of feedback used. Feedback types refer to processing the consequences of previous trial decisions and their influence on present and future choices. A comparative descriptive study was carried out with a retrospective ex post facto type design with two groups. The sample consisted of 100 boys, girls and adolescents from 8 to 15 years old, (68 boys and girls from 8 to 11 years old and 32 adolescents from 12 to 16 years old), divided into a clinical group and a control group paired by sex and age. To evaluate the DMUR, the Game of Dice Task (GDT) was administered, which is a computerized test in which betting decisions must be made to earn points. And to analyze the types of feedback, eight possible types were considered. The results showed a behavior with a tendency to choose risky options in the population with ADHD, both in the type of choices made and in the way, they use feedback when winning or losing, not necessarily linked to unfavorable decisions. These findings could contribute to the development of intervention programs aimed at reducing the difficulties in decision-making in people diagnosed with ADHD.
