  4. Abstract:
  5. Modeling is one of assessing tools for better understanding of human body organs and study of diseases. One of the brain diseases is ADHD, which has been studied before, mostly by means of EEG signals. In this paper, the mean-field model, which is a model of neuron-population spiking, and the Power Spectrum of the resulting spikes have been studied by changing parameters of model. The results show that there is a meaningful relationship between firing activity of ADHD patients neuron population and the parameters of mean-field model and Power Spectrum of spikes. In addition, the effects of stimulant medications for ADHD patients on firing activity and power spectrum of firing activity of thalamocortical neurons were investigated using mean-field model of bursting neurons
