“…The prevalence of ODD among American children is somewhat difficult to determine, as many studies measure both CD and ODD simultaneously. One such study estimates that 3.5%, or 1.9 million, 4- to 17-year-olds have been diagnosed with ODD or CD (Visser, Deubler, Bitsko, Holbrook, & Danielson, 2016). Another study measuring ODD alone estimated the prevalence of ODD for 13- to 18-year-olds to be 12.6% (Merikangas et al, 2010).…”

“…These studies show Black children to have increased likelihood of being diagnosed with a DBD than White children (Mak & Rosenblatt, 2002; Mandell et al, 2007; Minsky et al, 2006; Nguyen et al, 2007). In addition, White children are more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD alone, rather than ADHD with comorbid ODD or CD, than Black children (Baglivio, Wolff, Piquero, Greenwald, & Epps, 2017; Visser et al, 2016). The contrast in these two types of methodologies, standardized versus real-world diagnostic practices, suggest that while child behavior may be similar across races, typical diagnostic practices may differ by disorder across race.…”

Although both oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are associated with poor long-term outcomes, ODD may lead to worse outcomes. While epidemiological literature suggests similar prevalence of ODD and ADHD across racial groups, a review of studies assessing “real-world” diagnostic practice suggests Black children may be over-diagnosed with ODD. Critical race theory (CRT) is applied to determine the etiology and sequelae of a racial effect in diagnostic practice to explain this disparity in findings. Social work practice implications include encouraging examination of professional diagnostic training and procedures for racial bias, active questioning of ODD diagnoses, research to build counter-narratives to that of the dangerous Black child, and advocacy for structural changes to disrupt racism.

“…El trastorno por Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad (TDAH) es el trastorno mental durante la niñez más común en los Estados Unidos. El mismo afecta aproximadamente 5.1 millones de niños y niñas, esto es, 9% de los niños y adolescentes estadounidenses (Visser, Deubler, Bitsko, Holbrook, & Danielson, 2016). En América Latina, la prevalencia del TDAH es similar a la estadounidense; sin embargo, varía por país o territorio.…”

Actividad física y TDAH: evidencia sobre el desarrollo, efectos neurocognitivos a corto y largo plazo y sus aplicaciones

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

PROBLEMA: El trastorno por Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad (TDAH) está caracterizado por retrasos en el desarrollo neurobiológico. La actividad física (AF) puede influir en varios de los mecanismos neurocognitivos que también son afectados por el TDAH, por lo tanto, puede considerarse parte del tratamiento y manejo del TDAH. Esta revisión sobre TDAH resumirá estudios que evaluaron AF, aptitud física y coordinación motora. CRITERIOS DE INCLUSIÓN/EXCLUSIÓN: Fueron incluidos artículos sobre AF en la niñez en el espectro de TDAH. RESULTADOS: Estudios transversales: los niños con TDAH presentan niveles de AF más altos que aquellos niños aparentemente saludables. La niñez coincide con oportunidades para participar en juego libre, pero esta ventaja es reducida durante la adolescencia, en la cual la AF es estructurada y menos inclusiva. Durante la adultez, las personas con TDAH están más propensas a ser obesas y a no adoptar las recomendaciones de estilos de vida saludables. Estudios longitudinales: AF durante etapas tempranas predice la severidad de los síntomas del TDAH en etapas subsecuentes. Otros estudios: la AF moderada de corta duración brinda beneficios neurocognitivos. Los resultados sobre intervenciones de varias semanas difieren según la variable de interés y el grupo con el cual es comparada la intervención. CONCLUSIÓN/IMPLICACIONES: Las intervenciones de AF que retan las habilidades cognitivas y destrezas de movimientos brindan beneficios a los niños con TDAH. Además, estimulan a niños, niñas y adolescentes a participar en AF estructurada, a cumplir con la recomendación de AF y a incluir AF de corta duración como parte de las rutinas diarias.

“…Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most common childhood mental health disorder in the United States, affecting an estimated 5.1-million children, 9% of American youth (Visser, Deubler, Bitsko, Holbrook, & Danielson, 2016). Across Latin America, prevalence rates are similar with estimates ranging from 5-6% in Brazil (Arruda, Querido, Bigal, & Polanczyk, 2015) and Puerto Rico (Bird et al, 2006) to 10% in Chile (Vicente et al, 2012) and Venezuela (Montiel, Peña, Montiel-Barbero, & Polanczyk, 2008).…”

Physical Activity and Adhd: Evidence on Developmental Trajectories, Transient and Durable Neurocognitive Effects, and Real-World Applications

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

THE PROBLEM: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), the most common childhood mental health disorder in the United States, is the behavioral manifestation of neurodevelopmental delays. Physical activity (PA) is broadly accessible, culturally acceptable, and influences many of the same neurocognitive systems delayed in ADHD. These factors make PA a potential tool in treatment and management plans. This selective qualitative review synthesizes findings from studies investigating PA, fitness, and motor coordination in ADHD. INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Studies of PA [and related constructs] in youth on the spectrum for ADHD. MAIN RESULTS: Cross-sectional studies suggest children with ADHD evidence similar or higher PA levels than typically developing peers in childhood-a period when most PA is free play-but any advantages dissipate by adolescence, as PA programs become increasingly structured and selective. In adulthood, individuals with ADHD are more likely to be obese and less likely to meet healthy lifestyle guidelines. Longitudinal studies suggest that PA at earlier life stages predicts symptom severity in subsequent stages. Acute bout experiments suggest transient benefits on neurocognitive function following moderate-intensity activity of limited duration. Multi-week intervention studies have tested diverse formats with results that differ based upon the chosen outcome and comparison group utilized. CONCLUSION AND PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Existing research suggests youth with ADHD may benefit most from PA interventions that challenge cognition and fundamental movement skills in childhood, empower youth to participate in structured programs and meet PA guidelines in adolescence, and strategically time PA bouts to maximize focus during difficult periods of daily routines.

These are symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Conventional treatments for ADHD are therapy and medication. Findings from a modest number of crosssectional, longitudinal, short bout, and multi-week intervention studies show benefits of physical activity for brain function, thinking, ...
