Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of postural control and plantar pressure data in predicting Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in middle school students using machine learning methods. A total of 100 students will participate, including those identified with symptoms of ADHD and healthy controls. Participants will undergo non-invasive biomechanical assessments, including pedobarographic foot pressure measurement and mobile posture analysis. Behavioral data will be collected using DSM-IV-based rating scales developed by Atilla Turgay, completed separately by parents, teachers, and caregivers. All data will be used to develop predictive models using algorithms such as random forest, logistic regression, and support vector machines. The study is observational and cross-sectional.
