This study explored preservice teachers' (PST) perceptions to implement technology interventions for students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Technology avails unlimited potential for students with ADHD yet remains relatively untapped. The conceptual framework was based on Bandura's social cognitive theory of self-efficacy:…

Students with diverse learning needs are becoming more prevalent in higher education institutions. There has been a substantial rise in the number of adult learners with ADHD (American College Health Association, 2021). To ensure the support and achievement of neurodiverse learners, especially higher education students with ADHD, higher education…

Limited qualitative research has examined teachers' understanding of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), their attitudes towards the inclusion of children with ADHD in mainstream schools and how they support such learners. To address this, the current study used qualitative methodology to examine teachers' understanding of ADHD, their…

The current study observed the presence of implicit bias toward students with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in the classroom and the influential role of teacher self-efficacy. Teachers report a lack of readiness to work with students with diverse learning needs. Students with alternative learning needs, such as those with ADHD,…

More students with disabilities are entering doctoral programs now than ever before (Welding, 2023).

Background: Neurodivergence has been established as associated with a significant number of co-occurring physical conditions, particularly for autistic individuals who are at risk for increased pain, hypermobility (including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) and gastrointestinal problems. However, data, so far, has been focused on adults and generally…

Students with language and/or attentional difficulties are present in all classrooms, but evidence indicates they are poorly identified and supported.
