Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Hyperactive Children
2008
Abstract The background, rationale, and status of cognitive-behavior therapies for hyperactive children are summarized. Emerging themes and redirections are identified, including attributional foci, combination therapies, and tailored treatments. Dilemmas for the scientist-practitioner are highlighted, as the uneven track record of tangible improvements is balanced against the potential for less tangible (and more difficult to measure) gains in causal reasoning, self-perceived efficacy, and response to challenge. The article concludes with a set of guidelines and recommendations for cognitive-behavior therapies with hyperactive children.
