Single and Combined Effects of Behavioral, Academic, and Medication Treatments for ADHD in the Classroom
Sponsor: Florida International University
Summary
This study is the first to systematically evaluate the efficacy of single and combined academic accommodation, behavioral treatment, and medication treatment in a large sample of children with ADHD. Using a scientifically rigorous, cross-over design the impact of these approaches on ecologically valid measures of outcome (on-task behavior, quiz scores, academic productivity) will be assessed to inform effective school intervention.
