English | ISBN: 1624171079 | 2013 | 138 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is conceptualized as a neurobehavioural condition that is characterised by developmentally inappropriate levels of inattention, impulsivity and motor over activity. It is estimated to be present in 37% of school-aged populations and can result in significant impairment in academic, social and family functioning. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the cognitive symptoms, genetics and treatment outcomes of ADHD. Topics discussed include the disadvantages and benefits of stimulant treatment; a discussion on whether professions differ in their beliefs about the causes and treatments of ADHD; motor coordination dysfunction in ADHD; nutrition optimisation in the multi-modal treatment of ADHD; and the relation between sluggish cognitive tempo and ADHD.

The nature of bad memories is complex and often intertwined with our emotional and psychological well-being. These memories can arise from various life experiences, ranging from minor setbacks to significant traumas. They tend to occupy a prominent space in our minds, sometimes resurfacing unexpectedly and triggering feelings of anxiety, sadness, or anger. Understanding the mechanics of how bad memories are formed and stored can empower individuals to develop strategies for managing their impact on daily life. By recognizing that memories are not fixed but rather malleable, adults can learn to lessen their grip through various cognitive and behavioral techniques.
