Reference clinical practice guidelines coincide in pointing out Cognitive-. Behavioural Therapy as the first line of psychological treatment in child-adolescent with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review of randomized clinical trials in order to explore the efficacy of CBT group in ADHD applied as a direct intervention in children and adolescents. A bibliographic search was carried out in the Scopus, WoS, Academic Research Premier, ProQuest, PsycInfo, Medline, E-Journals and Pubpsych databases, limiting the age range between 5 and 18 years. This was complemented with a manual search of relevant websites and a review of the reference lists of the included studies. The Revised Cochrane Risk-of-bias Tool for Randomized Trials (Rob 2) was used to assess the methodological quality of the selected clinical trials. The search identified four clinical trials that evaluated the efficacy of group Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to reduce the symptoms associated with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children and adolescents. Only one study showed significant reductions in core symptoms of the disorder compared to the control group. The variability of the interventions and the scarcity of records found do not allow definitive conclusions to be drawn about the possible benefits derived, so more studies are required in this regard.
