The method used is aliterature study by collecting, reviewing, and synthesizing various relevant literature sources.The results showed that various strategies have been explored, such as speech therapy, use oftechnology, physical activity and movement methods, and environmental support. Althoughthese strategies have proven to be effective, articulation optimization in ADHD children stillfaces challenges such as difficulty maintaining attention, impulsivity, comorbidity, lack ofmotivation, and environmental support.
