Testing Resources Organizations Other Links Books and Videos see also Behavioral Disorders Introduction Attention deficit disorders are disorders characterized by serious and persistent difficulties in attention span, impulse control, and hyperactivity. Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a chronic disorder that can begin in infancy and extend through adulthood. It can have a significantly negative effect on an individual's life at home, in school, or in the community. There are two types of attention deficit disorders: undifferentiated Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In undifferentiated ADD, the primary and most significant characteristic is inattentiveness but hyperactivity is not present. These students still manifest problems with organization and distractibility, even though they may seem quite and passive. These students also tend to be overlooked more easily in the classroom, and may be at a higher risk for academic failure than those with ADHD. To be diagnosed as having ADHD a student must display, for six months or more, at least eight of the following characteristics prior to the age of seven:

What causes attention deficit disorder? Information on Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) the underlying causes of this disorder. (this article does not summarize the latest on ADHD) Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is one of the most frequently clinically referred psychological disorders in children. It can occur with (more common) or without hyperactivity, and has a higher incidence in male children. The disorder typically onsets by age 2 or 3 years, but help is generally not sought until these children enter school and experience difficulties. This article will examine what ADD is and its possible causes. As infants, sufferers may be colicky, irritable and difficult to manage (Barkley, 1985), and inability to maintain attention is the central characteristic of ADD. Impulsivity (which suggests poor self-control, excitability and inability to delay gratification or inhibit urges) and overactivity (parents and teachers often comment that these children cannot sit still) are also evident. They also have social difficulties (Cunningham et al., 1980) and they are often referred to as immature, uncooperative, self-centered and bossy. Aggressive behaviors, reading difficulties and other academic problems are also common. The prognosis is not good - children with ADD tend to carry their academic and social problems into adulthood, when some may improve, but the vast majority experience life-long problems.

M.F.C.C. 7202 N. Millbrook. Suite 103 Fresno, CA 93702 Telephone: (209) 432-5805 Fax: (209) 432-5819 TIPS FOR TEACHERS The following are suggestions for maintenance of the ADHD child in the classroom. These are grouped to address the primary areas in need of remediation in the ADHD child. Motor Activity Teach more complex problem-solving tasks in the morning. Research has shown that the highest activity level for ADHD child occurs between twelve noon and two o'clock in the afternoon. Allow students to present their own visual information by motoric means. For example, have students flip their own flash cards. Provide early intervention in the area of fine motor skills. Allow children to take notes, draw, or play with small objects at their desks during teacher lectures or long class discussions. play with small objects can be constructive, such as braiding or finger knitting. Impulsivity Rather than giving directions for many assignments at once, provide instruction immediately preceding the assigned work. Encourage the ADHD student to verbalize or rehearse plans for activities and school work.
