🎯 Struggling to Focus? Try Online Attention Screening with a Psychiatrist

Do you—or your child—find it hard to concentrate?
Do you often miss details, feel mentally restless, or jump from task to task?
Or perhaps you notice a loved one losing focus, even during conversations?

These can be signs of attention difficulties, which may stem from a variety of causes—ranging from ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) in children and adults to early cognitive decline in older adults.

I now offer online attention screening as part of a structured psychiatric evaluation. It’s a simple and effective way to detect attention problems and plan the next steps.

🧠 Why Attention Screening Matters

Attention is the gateway to memory, learning, and emotional control. When attention falters:

  • Academic or work performance suffers

  • Daily tasks take longer

  • Mistakes become common

  • Emotional frustration increases

  • In children, it may affect confidence and behavior

  • In older adults, it may signal early dementia or depression

Early screening helps catch these patterns before they spiral into larger concerns.

💻 What is Online Attention Screening?

This involves digitally administered, clinically validated tasks designed to measure:

  • Sustained attention

  • Selective attention

  • Divided attention

  • Impulsivity or distractibility

  • Processing speed

The process includes both computer-based tools and structured clinical questions.

🛠️ Tools I Use in Online Attention Screening

✅ CPT (Continuous Performance Task)

  • Tracks reaction time, omission and commission errors

  • Widely used in ADHD and cognitive screening

✅ MOXO or TOVA (via partnered platforms)

  • Structured visual/auditory attention tests

  • Includes distraction resistance

✅ Digit Span and Trails (Digitally adapted)

  • Measures working memory and mental flexibility

✅ Clinical Attention Scales

  • Conners ADHD Rating (for children/adolescents)

  • ASRS v1.1 (Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale)

  • Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) for daily attention slips

📍 Who Should Take an Online Attention Screening?

  • Children struggling in school or getting frequent complaints

  • Teenagers with procrastination, daydreaming, or impulsivity

  • Adults with poor time management, distractibility, or brain fog

  • Older adults with new difficulties focusing, reading, or remembering

  • People recovering from long COVID, stress, or emotional trauma

🔍 What Happens After the Test?

After the online assessment, I will:

  • Interpret the scores based on age, education, and background

  • Explain whether it fits a diagnosis like ADHD or MCI

  • Recommend next steps: therapy, skill training, further evaluation, or lifestyle changes

  • Provide a PDF report you can save and share

  • Offer online follow-up and, if needed, prescription support
