ADHD meds for non-ADHD students don't really help those students perform better academically. See https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3489818/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3489818/
They make you feel better, but not actually perform notably better.
- Zababa 5y agoFrom the article you linked: > These data suggest that when people are given rote-learning tasks their performance is improved by stimulants. Rote learning was (and still is) one of my big weaknesses. Tools like Anki help but going through them is way easier when I use stimulants. So maybe it depends on the student, but I'm wary of statements like "ADHD meds for non-ADHD students don't really help", it seems more to be pushing an agenda than telling the truth.
