Ocular-vestibular Biomarker Identification for ADHD

October 22, 2020 updated by: Sync-Think, Inc.
This study intends to establish a relationship between oculovestibular eye tracking measures, measures of ADHD, and medication prescribed for ADHD.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study will use a predictive visual tracking paradigm (SyncThink EYE-SYNC eye tracking paradigm) to dynamically capture the participants' attentional state. It will examine the validity of the eye tracking paradigm in identifying the disruption in attentional networks caused by ADHD by examining the association between eye tracking performances and well-established standardized measures of ADHD.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Eye Tracking and ADHD measure correlation
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Zero-order correlations among eye tracking parameters, CAARS ADHD indices, CBRS ADHD indices, and confounding variables
through study completion, an average of 1 year
Eye Tracking ADHD Diagnostic ROC
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Specific eye tracking parameters will be compared to determine which have the greatest diagnostic utility. Supervised machine learning models will be generated and optimized ROC AUC for both children and adults using eye tracking parameters as input and CAARS indices, CBRS indices, and clinical diagnosis as outcomes
through study completion, an average of 1 year
MANCOVA Eye Tracking in ADHD Treatment Population
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Repeated measures multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) will be used to compare eye tracking performance over time in adults and children with ADHD (medicated and unmedicated)
through study completion, an average of 1 year
