The purpose of the research was to examine the moderating effects of children's prosocial behavior on a potential relationship of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and peer rejection as well as friendship. Participants consisted of 252, 3 year old including 136 boys and 116 girls. They were recruited from day care centers and preschools in Gyeonggi province and Incheon city. Prosocial behavior and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder syndrome were assessed based on teacher ratings. A peer nomination inventory was used to assess peer rejection and friendship. Children were asked to nominate three peers that they liked and considered friends as well as three peers that they did not like and did not consider friends. Findings suggested that prosocial behavior moderated the relation between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and peer rejection as well as friendship. ADHD was related to peer rejection and fewer friends for children with lower levels of prosocial behavior. However, the association of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and peer rejection was not significant for children who had higher levels of prosocial behavior. Moreover, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder did not influence to friendship for children who had the higher levels of prosocial behavior. The results indicate that increasing prosocial behavior may improve peer relationship functioning of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects 4-12% of chool-age children worldwide and is characterized by three core symptoms: hyperactivity, inattention, and impulsivity. Although standard pharmacological treatments, such as methylphenidate and atomoxetine, are available, concerns about drug-induced psychological and cardiovascular problems, as well as growth retardation and sleep disturbances, highlight the continuing need for new therapeutic interventions. Using a neonatal hypoxia-induced hyperactivity model in rats, the potential positive role that oral administration of red ginseng extract may have in relation to the hyperactive phenotype was investigated. Hypoxia was induced in 2-day-old male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat pups by placing them in a nitrogen chamber for 15 min. The neonatal hypoxia-induced rats showed a significant increase in hyperactivity phenotype, such as increased movement duration, movement distance, and rearing frequency, which was determined by monitoring their spontaneous locomotor activity using the Ethovision video tracking system. One week of oral treatment with red ginseng extract decreased the hyperactivity phenotype of the neonatal hypoxia-induced rats and increased the locomotor activity of the control rats. In the neonatal hypoxia-induced rats, expression of the norepinephrine transporter in the forebrain was increased, and red ginseng treatment partially prevented its up-regulation, while increasing its level in the control rats. Taken together, these results suggest that red ginseng extract decreased the neonatal hypoxia-induced hyperactivity phenotype, although it increased locomotor activity in normal animals.

저자들은 Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD) 환자에서 과잉활동증을 동반한 집단과 과잉활동증을 동반하지 않은 집단간에 행동 및 정서적 특성을 비교하고, 각 증상척도들 간의 임상적 관계를 알아보기 위하여 본 연구를 시행하였다. ADHD 환자 36명을 Werry-Weiss-Peters Activity Rating Scale(WWPARS) 평가기준(20점)에 따라 Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity(ADD+H) 집단 19명과 Attention Deficit Disorder without Hyperactivity(ADD-H) 집단 17명으로 분류하여 Conners Rating Scale(CRS), Home Situations Questionnaire(HSQ), School Situations Questionnair(SSQ), Child Behavior Check-list(CBCL) 등을 시행한 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 두 집단간에 인구학적 특성은 차이가 없었다. 2) ADD+H 집단의 CRS 행동증상척도는 점수는 ADD-H 집단에 비하여 유의하게 높았으며, HSQ와 SSQ를 통하여 가정과 학교에서의 행동문제 상황을 비교한 결과, ADD+H 집단의 행동문제 상황의 유형이나 개수 및 증상의 심도가 ADD-H 집단에 비하여 유의하게 높았다. 3) 각 집단의 CBCL 8개 소척도 점수를 비교하였을 때, ADD+H 집단의 비행척도와 공격성 척도가 유의하게 높았다. 4) ADHD의 행동증상과 CBCL의 행동정서척도 간의 상관관계를 조사한 결과, CRS, WWWPARS의 행동증상척도와 CBCL의 공격성척도, 비행척도, 정서불안정척도 간에는 유의한 양성 상관관계가 있었으며, 특히 공격성척도와 과잉활동증 간에는 매우 유의한 상관성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과로 미루어 ADHD는 과잉활동증의 유무에 따라 그 임상적 특징이 차이가 있음을 시사하며, 향후 ADHD의 여러 임상적 유형과 약물치료효과 간의 관련성에 대한 연구 및 ADHD 환자에서 행동 특성과 인지기능이 통합된 연구의 필요성이 요구된다.

The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of ADHD based on estimation of ADHD rating scale between mother-teacher and teacher-teacher. In total, 491 mothers and 23 teachers rated 689 5-year-old children on the K-ADHDDS. Descriptive statistics, in addition to independent and paired samples t-test were performed. Overall, the percentages of children with ADHD on the rating scale were 3% in combined type, 7.1-8.6% in predominately hyperactive-impulsive type, and 4.2% in predominately inattentive type. Boys tended to show greater tendency of ADHD than girls’: Overall, ADHD tendency in boys was 1.3 times greater than girls. Specially, 2.3 times more for hyperactivity, 1.4 times more for impulsivity, and 3.4 more for inattention. The correlation between mothers’ and teachers’ ratings were .35 for total, .40 for hyperactivity, .24 for impulsivity, and .28 for inattention, and there were no significant differences. Alternatively teacher and teacher ratings were .71 for total, .70 for hyperactivity, .70 for impulsivity, and .67 for inattention, and there were significant differences in inattention subscale(p < .01).

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurobehavioral developmental disorder characterized by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity, as well as forgetfulness, poor impulse control or impulsivity, and distractibility. The recommended evaluation includes documenting the type and severity of ADHD symptoms, verifying the presence of normal vision and hearing, screening for comorbid psychological conditions, reviewing the child's developmental history and school performance, and applying objective measures of cognitive function. Prevailing opinion characterizes ADHD as a disorder of executive function attributable to abnormal dopamine transmission in the frontal lobes and frontostriatal circuitry. A clearly defined etiology remains unknown, but studies suggest a strong genetic link. The aim of treatment is to decrease symptoms, enhance functionality, and improve well-being for the child and his or her close contacts. Stimulants remain the pharmacological agents of first choice for the management of ADHD, and psychosocial, behavioral and educational strategies that enhance specific behaviors may improve educational and social functioning in children with ADHD.
