Pharmacologic Treatment and Behavior Therapy: Allies in the Management of Hyperactive Children
McDonald, James E.
Psychology in the Schools, 15, 2, 270-3, Apr 78
Proposes reasons for the popular use of stimulant medication in the treatment of hyperactivity, as well as assertions that drug therapy alone is inadequate and insufficient. Behavior modification, although limited in applications with hyperactive children, has demonstrated a favorable effect on disruptive behaviors, self-concept, peer acceptance, and academic performance.
