Cover Story: Sleep was found to enhance the consolidation of odors in adults but not in typically developing children (TDC). Previously, children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were reported to show lower perceptive thresholds for odors. Sleep-associated odor memory consolidation in children with ADHD was investigated. Children with ADHD and age-matched TDC participated in an incidental odor recognition task. For the sleep groups, encoding took place in the evening and retrieval the next morning. In the wake groups, the time schedule was reversed. Odor memory consolidation was superior in the ADHD sleep group compared to the TDC sleep and the ADHD wake groups. Abundant pre-experience due to lower perceptive thresholds is suggested as a possible explanation. View this paper
