This app is designed for people who wish to participate in scientific studies related to ADHD. Attention Deficit Disorder with hyperactivity (ADHD) or without hyperactivity (ADD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that appears during childhood (childhood ADHD) which, if not properly treated, can have an impact during adolescence and even into adulthood. ADHD symptoms in children and adolescents affect behavior and are characterized by moderate or severe distraction, short attention spans, fidgeting and restlessness, emotional instability, and impulsive behaviors. This disorder can negatively affect the academic and social life of the child or adolescent with ADHD, reducing their performance in school, and hindering their social relationships.

As a UC Berkeley epidemiology researcher since 2004, and actively working with participants for many years, there is a red flag for any program that makes a participant pay subscription costs while providing personal and scientific data for research use. The promise of an assessment and limited access to “personalized brain games” for free users is clearly set to only work properly for paying users, glitches and many “access denied” points where services are behind the paywall. Most studies put real funding into compensating participants with money or gift cards or at the very least full access to tools and services, an ethical imperative that i don’t see this app seriously engaging in. It promises providers large participant pools to try out studies or research while being able to skip the hassle of finding or paying people for being the only thing that gives a researcher work or career any validity itself. The people using this app are of vulnerable populations trying to get help and skills to improve quality of life, and that somehow dosent deserve full access? Why shouldn’t just us providers be paying for the huge resources of information being offered, and not the people who’s information we are using? Please be mindful, informed, and cautious with ANY programming you give information to. If your guy is even a little uncomfortable, skip it.

However after I got signed in and tried to do the free version. It seemed as though it locked up, so I shut down the app and tried to restart only to find I now cannot get back in there till tomorrow. So I just deleted it.
