Which treatments are effective for ADHD?

Elementary school teachers in the Netherlands are increasingly experiencing burnout symptoms (DUO Onderwijsonderzoek, 2016). This makes it likely that the quality of education will suffer, with teachers mainly pointing out that having too many students in a classroom in need of additional assistance due to some form of psychopathology is increasing the workload (DUO Onderwijsonderzoek, 2016). One fairly common issue – at three to seven percent of the children in a classroom – is the presence of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a neurodevelopmental disorder in which a child mainly presents with problems controlling impulses, remaining concentrated on the task at hand, and hyperactivity (Wilmhurst, 2015; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2019). Next to making the already challenging task of an elementary teacher more straining, the disorder is associated with a range of negative outcomes, such

What can I find on this page?
On this page, you can find a summary for all the study materials you need for the developmental specialization of the Psychology bachelor's programme at the University of Amsterdam. There is a link for all the separate courses. The courses have been organized into so-called bundles, which contain all the separate literature (book chapters & articles) to make for an easy overview. As all the study materials have been created by an actual student (me!) who has followed the same courses you are following right now, you know the material is up-to-date and focused on you, as a student.

The following courses are included:

• Adolescence: Developmental, Clinical, and School Psychology
• Childhood: Clinical and School Psychology
• Childhood: Developmental Psychology
• Clinical Perspective on Today's Issues
• Clinical Developmental & Health Psychology
• Evidence-based Research Practice
• Youth Interventions: Theory, Research, and Practice

Assessment should include many areas of functioning (1), use multiple techniques (2) and use multiple sources (3). The integration of this information is often difficult due to the low rate of agreement between informants but this may reflect real situational variability in children’s behaviour. Informant disagreement is influenced by the type of behaviour being assessed and the measurement technique used across informants (i.e. assessment strategy).

The level of analysis should be taken into account when assessing a lack of agreement between informants as individual behaviours show less consistency across informants than broader dimensions of behaviours (e.g. diagnosis). To understand the different behavioural manifestations, it is important to understand the demands of different contexts.

Complex schemes refer to systems in which one source of information is weighed more heavily than others. Simple schemes (i.e. either/or approach) refer to systems in which information from all sources is
