The aim of this study is to analyze the features of the auditory vigilance in normal and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) subjects in two conditions: with and interference. In the ADHD literature exists a broad range of visual attention studies: this work focalizes the auditory attention. The objective is understanding where and why interference rises: the results of the study confirm that ADHD subjects show falls in auditory vigilance tests and become less careful when an interference is introduced. Further researches could identify more precisely if the cause of interference rises at central or peripheral levels of the vigilance system.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to analyze the features of the auditory vigilance in normal and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) subjects in two conditions: with and interference. In the ADHD literature exists a broad range of visual attention studies: this work focalizes the auditory attention. The objective is understanding where and why interference rises: the results of the study confirm that ADHD subjects show falls in auditory vigilance tests and become less careful when an interference is introduced. Further researches could identify more precisely if the cause of interference rises at central or peripheral levels of the vigilance system.Pubblicazioni consigliate
