RESUMO -O presente artigo revisa criticamente o amplo escopo da literatura relacionada aos critérios diagnósticos, bases etiológicas e tratamentos farmacológico e comportamental do transtorno do déficit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH) em crianças. Foram consultadas as bases eletrônicas MedLine, Lilacs, PsycINFO e PubMed nas últimas três décadas. Os resultados dessa revisão apontam para uma predominância do critério diagnóstico baseado no Manual Diagnóstico e Estatístico das Doenças Mentais, bem como a necessidade de uma maior interação entre variáveis biológicas e comportamentais na compreensão das bases etiológicas e de tratamento deste transtorno. Sugestões para maximizar a eficácia desta interação são apresentadas e discutidas.Palavras-chave: transtorno do déficit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH); revisão; etiologia; tratamentos.
