Language development in children with attention deficit disorder

Bain, Jody Leigh 31 January 2018 (has links)
Children with an attention deficit disorder (ADHD) exhibit a number of behavioural characteristics which include hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattentiveness. They may experience difficulties in cognitive, academic, and social tasks which, in turn, may lead to rejection, perceived failure, and emotional upset. No clear etiology has been confirmed, with current research focusing on the role of genetics, environmental toxins, neurological factors, and parenting style. Common therapeutic interventions include medication regimes, social skills training, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and parental training in behaviour modification. Yet, reviews of these techniques suggest disappointing findings, with positive results being attributed to the prolonged monitoring of behaviours by parents/school staff rather than increased ability of a child to self-regulate and self-control. The present study examined receptive, expressive, and pragmatic language abilities in 37 children, ages 6–10, diagnosed with an attention deficit disorder. A number of neuropsychological tests (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - III: Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals - 3; Test of Language Development - Primary and Intermediate; Test of Pragmatic Language; NEPSY Auditory Attention and Response Test) and questionnaires (Child Behaviour Checklist; Social Skills Rating System) were used to investigate the relationship between language functioning and social skills competency. Analyses revealed no deficits on measures of receptive language and no gender differences (25 boys, 12 girls). However, significant differences were shown on expressive language tasks. The sample performed below the average range, with the older group of children (ages 9–10) having significant difficulties compared with the younger group of participants (ages 6–8). These deficits in language ability were related to issues in social competency including the presence of Internalizing and Externalizing behaviours. The results support research that suggests this disorder is not exclusively a deficit of attention. / Graduate

Systematic review on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and food additives in children

Shum, Cheuk-wai., 沈卓慧. January 2012 (has links)
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a developmental disorder of inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity. It is the most commonly diagnosed psychosocial problems in childhood with continuing impact into adulthood. This systematic review aims to identify the role of food additives, specifically artificial food coloring, in ADHD and its symptoms. PubMed, Sciencdirect, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar databases (1991-April 2012) were searched, which was supplemented by manual searches of the reference lists. Seven randomized or quasicontrolled trials of elimination diet were summarized. Six of these studies showed artificial food coloring was positively associated with ADHD and its symptoms. This review provides some evidence that artificial food coloring plays a role in ADHD and its symptoms. However, the studies reviewed only showed behavioral improvement after eliminating certain type of artificial food coloring, which does not imply artificial food colorings cause ADHD. Additionally, small sample size, inconsistent definition of artificial food colouring, subjectively reported ADHD using various assessment tools, and possibly publication bias limit the generalizability of the findings. If causal, reducing the intake of artificial food coloring could provide an alternative treatment of ADHD in the future. Understanding the mechanism underlying the association may provide insights into the developmental origins of ADHD. / published_or_final_version / Public Health / Master / Master of Public Health
