Attention deficit disorder in children: a neglect syndrome?
1Department of Psychiatry, University of Florida School of Medicine, Gainesville 32610.
Abstract:
This study tests the hypothesis that children with attention deficit disorder (ADD) resemble adults with inattention and neglect secondary to right hemisphere dysfunction. A letter cancellation task was administered to seven boys with ADD and five controls. As a group, the subjects with ADD made significantly more overall errors of omission and left-sided errors than controls, suggesting that they resemble adults with right hemisphere dysfunction.
