Current Directions in ADHD and Its Treatment
The treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a matter of ongoing research and debate, with considerable data supporting both psychopharmacological and behavioral approaches. Researchers continue to search for new interventions to be used in conjunction with or in place of the more traditional approaches. These interventions run the gamut from social skills training to cognitive behavioral interventions to meditation to neuropsychologically-based techniques.

Parents of children with ADHD were hypothesized to show a pattern of results similar to their children. Support was found for the hypotheses
