Abstract
The use of simulators has grown a vast amount in the past few years, with various research reports on the advantages that come with the use of this technology. However, the use of simulators as a form of treatment/aids have yet to be fully embraced. Given the growing diffusion of technology, many people can benefit from simulators that are more accessible and improve specific qualities to help them cope with their deficiencies. To examine this current void, this research in progress examines the benefits of physical activity for people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) through the use of a VSail Sailing Simulator. Specifically, we contend that there are benefits to addressing strength and balance. Thus, this paper analyzes the ramifications of the findings, along with knowledge gaps and a research plan.
