Abstract:
The present study was undertaken to determine the relationship between perinatal complications and subsequent development of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other behavioral characteristics. The biological mothers of 74 children diagnosed with ADHD and 77 children displaying no characteristics of the disorder completed the Maternal Perinatal Scale (MPS), the Behavior Assessment System for Children-Parent Rating Scales (BASC-PRS), and a demographic survey. In addition, the biological mothers of 120 children with no characteristics of ADHD or any other behavior disorders comp

Abstract:
Creative ideas are those that are both novel and useful. Creativity is considered to be a valuable social resource, which has supported the development of society in myriad domains. It has been suggested that behavioural indicators of creativity overlap with symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Indeed, there is some preliminary evidence to suggest that individuals with ADHD may be more creative than individuals without ADHD. The first chapter of this thesis outlines the relevant research and theory and presents the ‘creative advantage hypothesis’. Specifically it is arg

In recent years there has been a notable increase in the number of students being identified with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) in American schools. Although there is a tremendous amount of research being done in the area of AD/HD, parents, educators and individuals with AD/HD are ill-equipped to deal with the demands of the disorder. Only through extensive research and a better understanding of what AD/HD is can we expect to develop more effective means of dealing with AD/HD on a daily basis at home and in school.<P> The primary purpose of this book is to bridge th

The problem is that of yet, the cause of this deficit has not been identified. In an attempt to further understand this disorder, visual attention studies are being conducted.
