“…While there have been suggestions that inattention and poor planning associated with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be responsible, MD and ADHD are thought to be comorbid separate disorders that are independently transmitted in families (57). A Spanish study (58), which attempted to distinguish the cognitive profiles between ADHD and MD children, revealed that simultaneous processing was more predictive in the MD group while executive processes was predictive in ADHD group.…”

Math skills are necessary for success in the childhood educational and future adult work environment. This article reviews the changing terminology for specific learning disabilities (SLD) in math and describes the emerging genetics and neuroimaging studies that relate to individuals with math disability (MD). It is important to maintain a developmental perspective on MD, as presentation changes with age, instruction, and the different models (educational and medical) of identification. Intervention requires a systematic approach to screening and remediation that has evolved with more evidence-based literature. Newer directions in behavioral, educational and novel interventions are described.

“…The latter, as underlined by Marzocchi and colleagues 7 , can be explained in the light of a vicious circle between the deficit of self-regulation cognitive processes and the inability to adopt effective organizational and executive strategies appropriate to the task. This profile negatively affects the performance in the comprehension of written texts, studying, and resolution of arithmetic problems 19,20 . In this study, we found that mothers with positive tests showed higher scores in the questions investigating school impairment, compared to fathers, whose tests were positive.…”

Background: Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a multi-factorial condition, with inheritance playing a major role. Recognizing parents’ ADHD represents a clue not only for an earlier diagnosis of the disease in their children, but also to optimize psycho-educational therapy outcome, by addressing the impairment of parenting related to untreated ADHD. This study aimed to assess the frequency of features suggestive of ADHD during childhood among parents of affected children, and the presence of school and emotional impairment.Methods: We administered the Wender Utah Rating Scale-25, a self-assessment tool for the retrospective identification of symptoms consistent with ADHD during childhood, to a cohort of 120 parents of 60 children diagnosed with ADHD, and to a consistent number of “controls”.Results: The WURS-25 proved positive in 49.1% of fathers and 30.0% of mothers of ADHD patients, compared to 1.7% of fathers and 1.7% of mothers of non-ADHD patients (p < 0.0001). The questions addressing learning and emotional impairment provided significantly higher scores in parents with an overall positive test compared to those with negative test (p < 0.0001).Conclusions: This study demonstrates a remarkably high rate of symptoms consistent with ADHD during childhood in parents of affected children. Physicians should be aware that this is a relevant anamnestic clue and, given the relevance of parents’ role in the management of children with ADHD, an important issue in order to improve patients’ treatment.

“…There are 4 aspects of assessment in developed modules, the first of which is the content feasibility aspect. To maximize the success of learning in learning activities, this module includes exercises to train students to think critically to solve problems (Ruggiero & Green, 2017;Kashani-vahid et al 2017;Iglesias-sarmiento et al, 2017;Kim et al, 2016;Chow et al, 2016). Second, the aspect of the feasibility of presentation.…”
