PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION AND TREATMENT OF A CHILD WITH HYPERKINETIC DISORDER – CASE REPORT
Journal Title: Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation - Year 2009, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
Hyperkinetic disorders occur early in child development and are characterized by disturbed attention and hyperactivity displayed in various environments. Restlessness in dangerous situations and desinhibition in social settings with impulsive violation of social rules, are also commonly present. Although the disorder is conceptualized as being primarily biological, psychological treatment is also needed. Psycho diagnostic and anamnestic findings are used as a basis for treatment planning. With regard to the individual differences between children with hyperkinetic disorder, accurate assessment is crucial in order to meet the requirements for successful individualized treatment using different treatment options. Cooperation with parents and teachers is necessary.
