Children and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder by the American Psychiatric Association
Nearly eight million children in the US suffer from mental disorders, and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the more prevalent. In fact, it is the most commonly diagnosed mental health condition in American children today. According to the Surgeon General’s Report on Mental Health, ADHD afflicts between 3% and 5% of school-age children in any six-month period.
The disorder, which is more common in boys than in girls, often develops before age seven. However, it is usually diagnosed between the ages of eight and ten. Key features of the disorder include hyperactivity, impulsiveness and the inability to focus.
The essential feature of ADHD is a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivityimpulsivity that is more frequently displayed and more severe than is typically observed in individuals at a comparable level of development.
Symptoms tend to worsen in situations that require sustained attention or mental effort, or situations that lack intrinsic appeal or novelty. Activities such as listening to classroom teachers or working on monotonous, repetitive tasks are difficult or even impossible for children with
ADHD.
