Teachers' Knowledge and Misperceptions of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
Sciutto, Mark J.; Terjesen, Mark D.; Frank, Allison S. Bender
Psychology in the Schools, v37 n2 p115-22 Mar 2000
Examines teachers' (N=149) knowledge and misperception of ADHD within three specific content areas: symptoms/diagnosis, treatment, and general information. Teachers' scores on the Knowledge of Attention Deficit Disorders Scale (KADDS) show that teacher self-efficacy, prior exposure to an ADD child, and years of teaching experience were all positively related to ADD knowledge.
