Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neuro‐developmental/behavioral disorders among adolescents. Sport and physical activity seem to play a major role in the development of cognition, memory, selective attention and motor reaction time, especially among adolescents with ADHD. In this context, the objective of this study was to investigate the effects of a one and a half year long Taekwondo (TKD) intervention on cognitive function in adolescents with ADHD.
