Alternatives to Drug Treatment for Hyperactivity.
Den Houtter, Kathryn
Elementary School Guidance and Counseling, v14 n3 p206-12 Feb 1980
Results from recent studies on the effectiveness of Ritalin for "hyperactivity" show that this treatment is dubious at best. This article presents an alternative treatment approach, placing emphasis on devising an appropriate learning situation that meets the needs of the so-called hyperactive child. (Author)
