The article provides an overview of the prevalence of risky behavior in children with hyperactivity as a social problem. Children and adolescents diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are a special category of the child population whose behavior is determined by the imbalance of excitation-inhibition processes. The symptoms of this pathology are differentiated depending on the age of the patient and the manifestation of the main clinical manifestations decreases as children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) grow older. At the same time, complicated forms of ADHD often involve a violation of behavior that tends to take risky forms. Such behavior can be directed towards itself (autodectional) or towards society (externally destructive). In this context, the timely identification of factors that increase and reduce the risk of deviations in hyperactive children becomes relevant. They include certain conditions and properties of a person, which lead to readiness for risk and the implementation of risky behavior. The indication of these features underpins a systematic approach in risk management in the behavior of persons with a history of ADHD.

Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are characterized by a deviant pattern of brain oscillations during resting state, particularly elevated theta power and increased theta/alpha and theta/beta ratios that are related to cognitive functioning. Physical fitness has been found beneficial to cognitive performance in a wide age population. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between physical fitness and resting-state electroencephalographic (EEG) oscillations in children with ADHD. EEG was recorded during eyes-open resting for 28 children (23 boys and 5 girls, 8.66 ± 1.10 years) with ADHD, and a battery of physical fitness assessments including flexibility, muscular endurance, power, and agility tests were administered. The results indicated that ADHD children with higher power fitness exhibited a smaller theta/alpha ratio than those with lower power fitness. These findings suggest that power fitness may be associated with improved attentional self-control in children with ADHD.
