Students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often exhibit problem behaviors in the classroom. Some of these students present challenges for teachers in general classrooms that impact not only the students' own learning, but also the learning of other students.

Because of the lack of alternative treatments, the…

This study examined the efficacy and acceptability of human-artificial intelligence (AI) hybrid tutoring in improving the writing skills of twice exceptional (2e) bilingual students with motor dysgraphia and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) by employing an explanatory sequential design. In the quantitative phase, 12 2e bilingual…

The purpose of the present study is to compare risk and predictors of poor safety awareness and accidental injuries in ASD, ADHD, and neurotypical samples. Neurodivergent groups (ADHD-I n = 309; ADHD-C n = 747; ASD-only n = 328; ASD + ADHD n = 1,108) were 2-17 years old. The neurotypical group (n = 186) was 6-12 years of age. Maternal ratings on…

While Stiegler agrees with Hayles's position regarding attention, he criticizes Hayles for…

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can compromise health and may be more prevalent amongst individuals with gender dysphoria (GD).
