Article Synopsis
- Stimulants like methylphenidate hydrochloride, typically not recommended for conduct disorders (CD), were studied to see if they could help children with both CD and ADHD.
- In a 5-week trial with 84 children aged 6-15, those receiving methylphenidate showed significant reductions in antisocial behaviors compared to those taking a placebo.
- The results suggest that methylphenidate can positively impact conduct disorder symptoms in children, regardless of the severity of any ADHD symptoms they may have.
This study evaluated the effectiveness of a 16-week intensive cognitive training program in stimulant-treated, academically deficient ADDH boys. Cognitive training focused exclusively on academic skills and tasks, and included attack strategy training as well as self-monitoring and self-reinforcement of problem-solving behaviors and response accuracy. Control groups included remedial tutoring plus medication, and medication alone.
