Fein, Deborah; Dixon, Pamela; Paul, Jennifer; Levin, Harriet – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2005
Despite prominent attentional symptoms in Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD) the relationship between PDD and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has received little direct examination. In addition, outcome studies of children with PDD often focus on language, educational placement, or adaptive skills, but seldom on loss of the…

Pocklington, Barbara; Maybery, Murray – International Journal of Disability, Development & Education, 2006
A meta-analysis in the form of Brinley plots was conducted on the mean reaction times of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Control groups of children and adolescents on the Stroop Color and Word Test (SCWT). ADHD reaction times were regressed on Control group reaction times for 17 data sets (accessed from 13 published studies).…

Johnston, Charlotte; Ohan, Jeneva L. – Clinical Child and Family Psychology Review, 2005
Presents a social-cognitive model outlining the role of parental attributions for child behavior in parent?child interactions. Examples of studies providing evidence for the basic model are presented, with particular reference to applications of the model in families of children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and/or…

Dietz, Samantha; Montague, Marjorie – Exceptionality, 2006
This study examined in depth a group of adolescents (n = 12) who were identified as having attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The group was identified as part of a longitudinal study of students who were screened in primary school as at risk for developing emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) and peers who were identified as not…

Hoza, Betsy; Mrug, Sylvie; Gerdes, Alyson C.; Hinshaw, Stephen P.; Bukowski, William M.; Gold, Joel A.; Kraemer, Helena C.; Pelham, William E.; Wigal, Timothy; Arnold, L. Eugene – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2005
Participants included 165 children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD; 130 boys, 35 girls) and their 1,298 same-sex classmates (1,026 boys, 272 girls) who served as raters. For each child with ADHD, a child of the same sex was randomly selected from the same classroom to serve as a comparison child, which yielded 165 dyads.…

Corkum, Penny V.; Mullane, Jennifer C.; McKinnon, M. Margaret – Child & Family Behavior Therapy, 2005
This study evaluated a 10-week behavior training program for parents of children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and also examined whether the inclusion of an intervention provided to children's classroom teachers would result in additional behavioral benefits. Parents and teachers of 30 children with ADHD were randomly…

Weiss, Craig; Sametsky, Evgeny; Sasse, Astrid; Spiess, Joachim; Disterhoft, John F. – Learning & Memory, 2005
The effects of stress (restraint plus tail shock) on hippocampus-dependent trace eyeblink conditioning and hippocampal excitability were examined in C57BL/6 male mice. The results indicate that the stressor significantly increased the concentration of circulating corticosterone, the amount and rate of learning relative to nonstressed conditioned…

Rolfe, Mei Hsin Suzanne; Hausmann, Markus; Waldie, Karen E. – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2006
Objective: The authors investigated line bisection performance in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) subtypes. Previous research with neurotypical children found a rightward bias with right-hand use and a leftward bias with left-hand use; however, research with AD/HD participants has failed to similarly measure the…

Knouse, Laura E.; Paradise, Matthew J.; Dunlosky, John – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2006
Objective: Prior research suggests that individuals with ADHD overestimate their performance across domains despite performing more poorly in these domains. The authors introduce measures of accuracy from the larger realm of judgment and decision making--namely, relative accuracy and calibration--to the study of self-evaluative judgment accuracy…
