Acceptability of a Web-based attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder scale (T-SKAMP) by teachers: a pilot study.

Background: The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that physicians obtain information directly from teachers or other school professionals as a part of the periodic assessment of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This can be difficult for physicians, however, and despite the guideline, treatment decisions are often made without this key information. Hence, alternative means of obtaining data need to be considered.
