Abstract

In the last years, a great interest in research of tech-nologies has been conducted. New technologies can cause problems in the general population and especially in the childhood and adolescent population. The atten-tion deficit disorder (ADHD) is the most important ps-ychiatric disorder in childhood and adolescent stage. An important co morbidity between ADHD and psychiatric disorders has been reported in previous research. Most studies suggest that children with ADHD are especially vulnerable to develop addictions to new technologies. The aim of this paper is to make a review about ADHD and new technologies papers, in order to study the co morbidity between this disorders, the risks and benefits of new technologies, and to know therapeutic guidance about the use of new technologies in child and adolescent population with ADHD.
