  • Life Course Model for Treatment of ADHD
    We previously proposed a model for treatment of ADHD that emphasizes a life-course perspective to address the long-term implications and outcomes of early life experiences on health, psychological, and educational outcomes of individuals with ADHD across the life span (Evans, Owens, Mautone, DuPaul, & Power, 2014). In contrast to prevailing models of care that focus on service delivery to individuals emphasizing short-term symptom reduction, the life-course model prioritizes helping youth with ADHD improve competencies and develop into independent, healthy adults who achieve occupational, personal, and recreational success. Briefly, this model is comprised of four layers of services including (1) foundational strategies to establish appropriate structure and supports in home and school (e.g., parent-teacher communication), (2) psychosocial interventions to increase competencies and address impairments in academic, behavioral, and social functioning (e.g., organization interventions), (3) medication treatment, and (4) accommodations to adapt environments to children’s limitations (i.e., reductions in expectations). These layers represent the sequence within which services should be delivered and combined over time and across systems and settings.

  • Multiple psychosocial interventions are efficacious for children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) including behavioral parent training, behavioral classroom management, behavioral peer interventions, and organization training programs. Unfortunately, there is a significant gap between research and practice such that evidence-based treatments often are not implemented in community and school settings. Using a life course model for ADHD treatment implementation, we discuss future research directions that support movement from the current, fragmented system of care to a more comprehensive, integrated, and multi-systemic approach. Specifically, we offer six recommendations for future research. Within the realm of treatment development and evaluation

  • The purpose of this study is to estimate the national prevalence of parent-reported attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) diagnosis and treatment among U.S. children 2–17 years of age using the 2016 National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH). The NSCH is a nationally representative, cross-sectional survey of parents regarding their children’s health that underwent a redesign before the 2016 data collection. It included indicators of lifetime receipt of an ADHD diagnosis by a health care provider, whether the child currently had ADHD, and receipt of medication and behavioral treatment for ADHD. Weighted prevalence estimates were calculated overall and by demographic and clinical subgroups (n = 45,736). In 2016, an estimated 6.1 million U.S. children 2–17 years of age (9.4%) had ever received an ADHD diagnosis

  • Cyber security
    Cyber Security involves the practice of implementing multiple layers of security and protection against digital attacks across computers, devices, systems, and networks. Usually, organizations have a system and a framework in place for how they tackle attempted or successful cyberattacks. A good framework can help detect and identify threats, protect networks and systems, and recover in case any attack was successful.
