Amphetamines in the Treatment of Hyperkinetic Children
Grinspoon, Lester; Singer, Susan B.
Harvard Educational Review, 43, 4, 515-55, 73
Article is a literature review, but a literature review with definite policy implications. It concerns the widespread use of amphetamines in the nation's schools to control a syndrome which doctors and medical researchers call "hyperkinetic behavior disorder," or "minimal brain dysfunction," and which teachers and parents know as "hyperactivity".
