Effectiveness of online Mindfulness-Based Intervention (iMBI) on inattention, hyperactivity-impulsivity, and executive functioning in college emerging adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: a study protocol

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a common neurodevelopmental disorder, often persists into adulthood. In Malaysia, the prevalence rate of hyperactivity symptoms is highest among Chinese Malaysians. There are limited evidence-based treatment options targeting the core symptoms of ADHD...
