Abstract
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a psychological pathology that affects children, young people and adults with impulsivity, distractibility, excessive motor activity and difficulties in impulse control. Previous research affirms that about 5% of the population presents this disorder and that its problems generate a negative influence in the family, social, personal, work, and educational environments. The treatment of ADHD is characterized by the application of classic methods of pencil and paper; however, for the current generation it is not a process that is the most attractive.
