Attention Deficit Disorder Classification

Classification of Attention Deficit Disorder

The rates at which children and adults are being diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder is startling. In the past, these same people were labeled as slightly brain damaged or hyperactive by the medical community. The American Psychiatric Association says that there are 2 million people with this condition.

For starters, ADD or A.D.D. is a medical term used to describe people who have trouble maintaining focus in school and social settings. ADD and ADHD children are given the label if they exhibit overactive tendencies and cause disruptions in the classroom. On the other hand, you could also have quiet children drawing or looking out the window while sitting at their desk. girl with ADHD

Children with Attention Deficit Disorder or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder are recognized for memory problems, tendency to lose things, or procrastinate for no particular reason other than a lack of concentration and initiative. Not finishing homework or school assignments on time might also attribute to ADD. The right diagnosis also rules out other kinds of problems as well.

According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, there are three types of attention deficit disorders. They are:

  • ADHD Predominantly Inattentive
  • ADHD Predominantly Combined
  • ADHD Predominantly Hyperactive Impulsive

Children and adults must show six of nine symptoms in order to be diagnosed with the condition. In all of these cases, symptoms must persist for no less than six months to a degree that is inconsistent with his or her development level. Most of these symptoms must also surface before age seven and in two different settings that may include work and school. There must be sufficient evidence of hardship and impairment in a social, school, or work setting and cannot be bought on by other disorders like pervasive developmental disorder and anxiety.
