Hyperactivity and Diet Treatment: A Meta-Analysis of the Feingold Hypothesis.
Kavale, Kenneth A.; Forness, Steven R.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v16 n6 p324-30 Jun-Jul 1983
The paper reviews via meta-analysis 23 research studies investigating the Feingold hypotheses which suggests diet modification as a treatment for hyperactivity. Findings indicate that diet modification is not an effective intervention for hyperactivity as evidenced by the negligible treatment effects (only slightly greater than those expected by chance.)
