*Non-smoking young adults with ADHD-C showed improvements in cognitive performance following nicotine administration in several domains that are central to [[Abbreviations|'''ADHD''']].

===2006 [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0031938405005627?via%3Dihub Effects of transdermal nicotine on attention in adult non-smokers with and without attentional deficits]===
*The results showed nicotine-induced improvement on some measures of sustained attention in the low attention group and some decrement in working memory in the high attention group, which suggests that nicotine tends to optimize rather than improve performance on cognitive tasks.
