A study examined 127 parents' understanding of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and differences by ethnicity, child gender, treatment status, and sociodemographic status. White parents were more likely than African-American parents to apply medical labels, expect a lifelong course, seek school interventions, and address academic and social outcomes. (Author/CR)
