Study Summary
This pilot project will evaluate yoga as an intervention to improve attention and reduce challenging behaviors such as hyperactivity and impulsivity, rated by parent and teachers, in preschool age children with or "at risk" for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). "At Risk" for ADHD will be defined as four or more hyperactive/impulsive and/or inattentive symptoms on the ADHD Rating Scale IV-Preschool Version as rated by parents or teachers. Using a randomized wait-list controlled experimental design, the investigators will explore the efficacy of practicing yoga for 6 weeks on behavioral symptoms, attentional control using a computer based tasks of attention, and heart rate variability (HRV), which is a measure of self-regulatory capacity. The investigators hypothesize that practicing yoga for six weeks of will improve ADHD and other behavioral symptoms based on parent and teacher rating scales, which will correlate with improvements in scores on the computer based task of attention as well as with improvements in HRV.
