    (Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Tobón Velásquez, Isabella; Torres Cadavid, Susana
    Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common mental disorders in school-aged children and adolescents, it affects the development of executive functions such as sustained attention, indispensable for academic performance. This study analyzed the use of the balance ball to stimulate sustained attention in 6 students with ADHD between 8 and 10 years old from a private school in Medellín. The CSAT-R test was used to measure sustained attention capacity, using a pre-test post-test design, to observe changes in sustained attention capacity in relation to the use of the wobble ball. The results indicated an improvement in all post-test condition variables, especially in sustained attention ability. These findings highlight the potential of the balance ball as a tool to stimulate attention in students with ADHD, underlining the importance of psychological support in educational training.
