Article Abstract:

A focus is made on attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a chronic condition with symptoms experienced over a lifetime, in children and adolescents. ADHD is characterized by the inability to marshal and sustain attention, modulate activity level, and moderate impulsive actions, resulting in maladaptive behaviors that are inconsistent with age and developmental level.
