the first 19 are channel names.

Class: ADHD/Control

ID: Patient ID

Participants were 61 children with ADHD and 60 healthy controls (boys and girls, ages 7-12). The ADHD children were diagnosed by an experienced psychiatrist to DSM-IV criteria, and have taken Ritalin for up to 6 months. None of the children in the control group had a history of psychiatric disorders, epilepsy, or any report of high-risk behaviors.

EEG recording was performed based on 10-20 standard by 19 channels (Fz, Cz, Pz, C3, T3, C4, T4, Fp1, Fp2, F3, F4, F7, F8, P3, P4, T5, T6, O1, O2) at 128 Hz sampling frequency. The A1 and A2 electrodes were the references located on earlobes.

Since one of the deficits in ADHD children is visual attention, the EEG recording protocol was based on visual attention tasks. In the task, a set of pictures of cartoon characters was shown to the children and they were asked to count the characters. The number of characters in each image was randomly selected between 5 and 16, and the size of the pictures was large enough to be easily visible and countable by children. To have a continuous stimulus during the signal recording, each image was displayed immediately and uninterrupted after the child’s response. Thus, the duration of EEG recording throughout this cognitive visual task was dependent on the child’s performance (i.e. response speed).
