摘要: Stimulant medications have been used for over 55 years to treat children affected by a condition once called hyperactivity and now termed attention deficit disorder (ADD) (DSM-III, 1980) or attention-deficit (ADHD) (DSM-III-R, 1987; DSM-IV, 1994). In this chapter, we will use the term currently en vogue refer all of conditions (e.g., minimal brain damage, dysfunction, hyperactivity, hyper-kinesis, disorder) which shared some basic symptoms (i.e., inattention, impulsivity, hyperactivity).
