  • Title: Hyperactive children and the efficacy of psychoactive drugs as a treatment intervention.
    Author: Lambert NM, Windmiller M, Sandoval J, Moore B.
    Journal: Am J Orthopsychiatry; 1976 Apr; 46(2):335-52. PubMed ID: 4973.
    Abstract:
    Characteristics of hyperactive children, including speculation in regard to etiology, are reviewed. Drug effects studies and drug treatment of hyperactive behavior are examined, and unresolved issues are discussed. Conclusions indicate that individual differences in hyperative children should form the basis for treatment planning, rather than simply treating groups of children under the rubric "hyperactivity."
