Abstract: Many studies in recent years have looked at the effects of Ritalin on the performance of hyperactive children. In general, these studies have shown Ritalin to be significant in reducing the symptoms of hyperactivity usually referred to as impulsivity, short attention span, low frustration tolerance, and overly active. This study was designed to examine the effects of Ritalin on the performance of two children taking Ritalin on four tasks: concept learning, reaction time, visual discrimination, and memory.
