주의력결핍 과잉행동장애는 미국에서 약 200만 명의 어린이에게 나타나는 심각한 만성 신경행동학적 장애이다. 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애 치료의 중심은 약물요법이다. 그러나 현재 환자의 약 30%는 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애를 적응증으로 갖도록 허가된 의약품들을 사용해도 적절한 치료효과를 얻지 못하고 있는 상황이다. Modafinil은 methylphenidate나 amphetamines와 같은 각성제와는 다른 약리학적 기전으로 중추신경계를 항진시킨다. 본 연구는 modafinil의 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애 치료효과에 대한 최신 지견을 얻고자, 1990년부터 2010년 3월까지 MEDLINE에 등재된 논문을 ADHD와 Modafinil이라는 MeSH terms로 검색하여 추출한 자료 중에서 대조군이 사용된 무작위 배정 및 이중맹검 임상연구 사례만을 선별하여 임상적 유용성을 평가하였다. 현재 modafinil은 주의력결핍 과잉행동 장애 치료제로 허가된 의약품은 아니지만 최근 여러 국가에서 시행된 연구들은 modafinil이 안전하고 효과적인 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애 치료제일 수 있다는 결과를 보여주고 있다.

Results : Total agreement was the range of 75%~95% and the Kappa coefficients was the range of. 45~1.00. Analyzing inter-rater reliability by ICC showed very high reliability: Intrinsic motivation was .96, internal control was .98, suspension of reality was .90, framing was .98, total score was .99. Conclusion : A reliability of Test of Playflness of children with ADHD showed that high. On the basis of this study, it will provide availability for clinical evaluation of children with ADHD, and basic study on the play of children with ADHD.

The purpose of this study is to examine the associations among attention deficit/hyperactivity, social withdrawal, peer relationships, and depression in early adolescence. Gender differences in the associations were also examined. This study investigated these relationships and the gender differences using structural equation modeling multi-group analysis. The third wave data from Korea Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS) of fourth graders were analyzed. The results indicated that attention deficit/hyperactivity had significant effects on depression directly and indirectly through social withdrawal and peer relationships. These results suggest that new programs should be developed to prevent or alleviate depression associated with attention deficit/hyperactivity among adolescents. Specifically, social withdrawal and peer relationships need to be emphasized in planning prevention or intervention programs to promote mental health of adolescents with attention deficit/hyperactivity.

Method：A total of 82 parents, 31 parents having children with ADHD and 51 normal, were involved in this study. The children of ADHD and normal group were 6-11 years old. ADHD group were diagnosed as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder by psychiatric doctor and psychological evaluations using DSMIV criteria and the normal group were excluded by using Diagnostic Rating Scale-Parent, Teacher Form. The mothers of both group completed a series of questionnaire about mother's depressive mood and parenting-related attitude. To investigate the relationships between each variables, Student's t-test, correlation, stepwise regression, and hierarchical regression analysis were performed. Result：In correlation analysis, Mothers with an ADHD child were likely to report more coercive parenting behavior, more negative parenting-related attitudes, and depressive mood than normal group. In regression analysis, mother's parenting stress, dysfunctional thoughts, parenting competence, and depressive mood predicted coercive parenting behavior significantly, total explaining 50% of its variance, and especially depressive mood explained 29% of their coercive parenting behavior. These Results indicated that mother's depressive mood accounted for a substantial portion of coercive parenting behavior. Conclusion：These findings suggested that it is significantly important to reduce Mother's depressive mood through dealing with parenting sense of competence and dysfunctional thoughts, so, both parent education program and cognitive-behavioral therapeutic approach are needed to change parent's coercive parenting behavior. Finally, limitation of the present study and suggestions were discussed for further studies.
