Abstract:
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been long recognized and well established in children, but its continuation into adulthood has only recently been supported by the research. ADHD symptoms and concerns typically appear differently in adults, but treatment options, conceptually at least, are similar to those used for children who have ADHD. This article introduces the issue of Journal of Clinical Psychology: In Session devoted to ADHD in teens and adults. It presents the prevalence and manifestations of the disorder and then reviews the subsequent articles on the comorbidity, evaluation, education, psychopharmacology, and psychosocial treatments of ADHD for teens and adults. The issue concludes with an article on neurobiofeedback, a relatively new treatment option.
