Research Focus
Dr. Michael Kofler's research focuses on improving the lives of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) by integrating two effective treatment methods. He studies how combining Central Executive Training, which enhances working memory, with Behavioral Parent Training, which supports better family dynamics, can provide greater benefits to children. The goal is to create a comprehensive approach that addresses both cognitive and behavioral aspects of ADHD.
