Aggressive behavior among children and adolescents has confounded parents and perplexed professionals—especially those tasked with its treatment and prevention—for countless years. As baffling as these behaviors are, however, recent advances in neuroscience focusing on brain development have helped to make increasing sense of their complexity. Focusing on their most prevalent forms, Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder, Disruptive Behavior Disorders advances the understanding of DBD on a number of significant fronts. Its neurodevelopmental emphasis within an ecological approach offers links between brain structure and function and critical environmental influences and the development of these specific disorders. The book's findings and theories help to differentiate DBD within the contexts of normal development, non-pathological misbehavior and non-DBD forms of pathology. Throughout these chapters are myriad implications for accurate identification, effective intervention and future cross-disciplinary study. Key issues covered include: Gene-environment interaction models. Neurobiological processes and brain functions. Callous-unemotional traits and developmental pathways. Relationships between gender and DBD. Multiple pathways of familial transmission. Disruptive Behavior Disorders is a groundbreaking resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners and graduate students in clinical child and school psychology, psychiatry, educational psychology, prevention science, child mental health care, developmental psychology and social work.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects approximately five percent of American school-age children. In a classroom of thirty, it is likely that at least one child will have ADHD. Symptoms include extreme levels of hyperactivity, inattention, and disruptive behavior. A Harvard University study published in September 2004 reported that students with ADHD are less likely than their non-ADHD peers to complete high school and less likely to attend college. The study found that on average those adults with ADHD have household incomes that are about $10,000 lower for high school graduates and $4,300 lower for college graduates, compared with those who do not have ADHD. Understanding Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a concise, clearly written overview of the condition’s symptoms and the range of possible treatments. Chapters explain how certain behavioral patterns can be misdiagnosed as ADHD, how early diagnosis and treatment of the condition is critical, how the various forms of the condition affect a child’s psychology and socialization, and how parents can help to address the condition effectively and supportively. Understanding ADHD provides useful, up-to-date information on a condition that can be treated with early diagnosis and intervention. The book will prove useful to professionals and parents seeking a better understanding of children and childhood development.

The volume is an international book of collected papers by 26 eminent specialists from eight different countries and many parts of the world (America, Brazil, India, Mexique, Poland, Portugal, Russia, and Turkey), dealing with the problem of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This disorder interferes to a great extent with functioning and development of children at different age.The volume provides a contemporary and future - oriented view of the issues and concepts in the pattern, mechanisms and remediation of ADHD. They include problems of social functioning and learning disability of children with ADHD, psychological, physiological, genetic and neurological mechanisms, cerebral substrate and etiology of this form of dysontogenesis, forensic implications for behavioral disturbances associated with childhood ADHD, practical suggestions for clinicians and psychologists, new methods of its assessment and efficient methods and approaches to remediation of children with ADHD.This disorder became an important international problem, independently of cultural and economic conditions of life, styles of education, learning systems with a prevalence of about 5% -7% in most cultures. Therefore better understanding of children suffering Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder could help these children, their parents and educators to develop efficient treatment plans and integrated approaches that are uniquely tailored to each individual child.

It is now possible for concerned parents to treat their child’s attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) without medication. This book shows them how. Written by a supervising psychologist who specializes in child behavioral issues, Parenting Your Child with ADHD presents a groundbreaking program for parents seeking to reduce their child’s inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity and strengthen his or her capacity for self-reliance and cooperation. This unique program promotes positive ways of interrelating and shows parents the five main ways they may have unwittingly reinforced ADHD symptoms in the past. Far from encouraging parents to strictly manage ADHD children, this approach promotes independence in kids so that less discipline and surveillance is necessary. Specifically, this book helps parents promote cooperation by phrasing their requests in specific ways, reduce pressure on their child, and acknowledge the child’s preference as a way to make cooperation a more attractive choice to him or her. Parents learn to resolve problems related to messiness, inappropriate silliness and intrusiveness, chores and helping family members, coordinating schedules, sneaking and stealing, noise and yelling, and overreacting. The second part of the book moves on to issues that take place outside the home, such as shopping excursions, family outings, and travel. Finally, parents learn ways to increase their child’s independence and cooperation with schoolwork and compliance in the classroom environment. The child learns the value of being knowledgeable without the motivation of punishment or gift rewards.

ABOUT THE BOOK Rick Riordan’s popular Percy Jackson and the Olympians series is one of the first young adult book series to feature characters that suffered from Attention-Deficit Hyperperactivity Disorder, ADHD. Rather than depict the disease as a source of debilitation, Riordan instead makes ADHD a source of strength for the series’ main protagonists. Unfortuantely, in the real world, ADHD is rarely a positive characteristic. Characterizing ADHD and those who suffer from it in this way runs counter to genuine efforts to arm people with accurate information. But just what is ADHD? The Mayo Clinic defines ADHD as a condition characterized by impaired attention spans and impulsive behavior. The condition may be diagnosed in early childhood and persists well into adulthood. Children that suffer from ADHD usually manifest symptoms at the age of 7. However, the symptoms may appear in children as young as 2. MEET THE AUTHOR Joseph Pritchard is passionate reader and writer. He has a bachelor's degree in Biology and also completed a degree in medicine. He has written for other prominent online publications and enjoys writing on a variety of topics. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Unlike their children counterparts, adults with ADHD must take a more proactive approach to managing the behavioral symptoms. Adult patients are asked to make certain lifestyle changes that help them foster habits that allow them to cope with the more obvious signs of ADHD. Adults should attempt to become more structured and well-organized. The New York Times Health Guide notes that behavioral management for ADHD children occurs primarily at home and at school. Both instances will require consistency, patience, persistence, and flexibility. Parents, caregivers and teachers must identify behavioral patterns that are potentially problematic, while still giving the children room to develop individuality and creativity. This means being able to ignore lapses such as temper outbursts. However the bouts of aggression typically seen in children with ADHD, may be a potential stumbling block for parents and teachers. They should be careful to distinguish between mildly disruptive outbursts and deliberate destructive or abusive behavior. Should the latter occur, then one possible way of curbing the aggression is through short-term isolation in order to give the children an opportunity to calm down. Conversely, it is equally important to establish a reward system that reinforces positive or correct behavior. Buy a copy to keep reading!
