"ADHD Doctor Dad", Dr. Shinaver's son is one of 'those' ADHD children so his interest and motivation in finding ADD ADHD treatment exceeds simple professional interest. A college psychology student poses this question to Dr. Shinaver: What Makes Cogmed More Compelling than Behavior Management, EEG Biofeedback, and Medication treatment of Attention Deficit? He has experience using all these approaches with his son and with clients of his. His answer to this question has to do with the quality of the research on Cogmed Working Memory TrainingTM the real world effects of Cogmed Working Memory TrainingTM , including the following effects for children: Improved Attention, Better Impulse Control, Remembering Instructions, Completing Assignments, Taking Initiative, Working Independently, and Improved Social Skills. And, finally, the accountability built into the coaching format of this program.
