This study assesses whether anger in the context of driving is associated with the negative driving outcomes experienced by individuals with ADHD.
ADHD adults (n = 56) complete measures of driving anger, driving anger expression, angry thoughts behind the wheel, and aggressive, risky, and crash-related behavior. Results are compared to two non-ADHD...
This study examined differences in the ability to decode emotion through facial expression, prosody, and verbal content between 14 children with Asperger's Syndrome (AS) and 16 typically developing peers. The ability to decode emotion was measured by the Perception of Emotion Test (POET), which portrayed the emotions of happy, angry, sad, and neutr...
The purposes of this study are (a) to identify coping resources that differentiate academically high-achieving college students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) from their less academically successful ADHD peers, and (b) to use qualitative methods to initiate an investigation of other possible predictors of academic success amon...
The purpose of this study was to examine gender differences in the perception of courtship abuse. Scenes of emotional, physical, and sexual abuse of both female and male victims were depicted in written vignettes. Two-hundred-forty male and 240 female college undergraduates rated the vignettes in terms of nine dimensions, including typicality of th...
This study examined differences in empathy and other emotions between boys with and without attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Empathy was measured by an empathy response task (ERT) and through self- and parent reports of emotion. On the ERT, children responded verbally to 8 fictitious stories. Results from the ERT revealed that boys...
The Marital Attitude Scale (MAS) was developed by Braaten and Rosen (1998) to overcome shortcomings found in earlier marital attitude scales. This article reports test-retest reliability for the MAS. Two hundred and six participants were surveyed for this study. Of these participants, 113 were introductory psychology students and 93 were students i...
The association between conduct disorder (CD) and the construct of avoidance of responsibility was investigated in a sample of junior and senior high school-aged adolescents. Each adolescents CD symptomatology was determined using a self-report checklist keyed to DSM-IV symptoms. In addition, participants completed an avoidance of responsibility me...
Differences in anger, aggression, depression, and anxiety between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disordered (ADHD) and Non-ADHD children were explored in this investigation. Data were collected from ADHD and Non-ADHD children and their mothers and teachers. Analysis of the self-report data indicated that the ADHD children were significantly more a...
This article reports the development and validation of a scale to measure attitudes toward marriage, the Marital Attitude Scale (MAS). The MAS assesses global satisfaction toward heterosexual marriage. The MAS is shown to have favorable psychometric properties, including high internal consistency. Scores on the MAS correlate moderately with other m...
Fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grade students were surveyed to investigate whether self-care was related to self-reports of behavioral or attitudinal deviance, liking for school, or both. The Child Self-Care Measure (CSCM), a multiscale self-report instrument, measured self-care as a developmental task with four major dimensions: temporal, physical, str...
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a debilitating disorder which affects children and adults in this country and around the world. Diversity variables such as ethnicity, age, gender, and socioeconomic status have been relatively neglected in ADHD research. Additionally, these variables have not traditionally been incorporated into c...
The relationship between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms, coping strategies, and academic success is investigated. A self-report measure of ADHD symptoms and two measures of coping behaviors were used. Results indicated high-symptom students used fewer coping behaviors. However, intelligence was associated with academic ach...
We investigated the association between ‘Avoidance of Responsibility’ and Disruptive Behavior Disorder symptoms (Conduct Disorder and Oppositional Defiant Disorder) in a sample of college students. Each subject's Disruptive Behavior Disorder symptomatology was determined using a self-report symptom checklist. In addition, subjects completed the Avo...
Differences in self-esteem between college students who indicated a childhood history of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and college students in general were examined. Factors predictive of self-esteem among those college students who identified themselves as ADHD in childhood were also studied. Significant differences in self-estee...
Adults with a high number of symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) were examined with regard to their emotional reactions to reward and punishment, emotional intensity, and the traits of introversion/extraversion and neuroticism. The Emotional Reactions to External Consequences Scale (ERECS) was developed to assess the strengt...
College students completed questionnaires regarding their abuse history and their current psychological functioning (Symptom Checklist 90-Revised). It was found that emotional abuse in childhood, even with no other type of abuse present, was significantly related to long-term negative consequences for these students. Survivors of childhood emotiona...
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects a significant portion of the population--some 5% of all school-aged children--and approximately half of these individuals continue to show the full disorder in adulthood. Recent studies point to a strong genetic component in the etiology of this disorder. Questions have been raised as to the r...
A comprehensive classroom behavior management program, the Boy's Town System (BTS), was evaluated in a US school setting. The BTS was used in four programs for emotionally/behaviorally disturbed (EBD) students. Two other EBD programs served as control groups. Academic performance was measured using the Three R's Achievement Test and curriculum base...
Examined students' satisfaction with peer counseling programs and with peer counselors' helping styles. Questionnaire data were gathered from 159 students who had met with a peer counselor during the 1988–1989 academic year. Peer counselors all received training and met twice a week during their senior year for supervision and discussion of ongoing...
We examined five hundred college students from intact and divorced families along several measures of adjustment. Further, comparisons within the divorce group were made across gender and number of years since the divorce with the covariates of parents' marital happiness prior to the divorce, remarriage, and who the student lived with after the div...
Two studies documented methods used by elementary school teachers to manage classroom behavior. Study 1, using a self-report format, examined the proportion of teachers endorsing specific management techniques, as well as the extent to which those practices were reportedly used. Distinctions were made between teachers' responses to children's inapp...
The effects of two types of home-based treatments designed to reduce the school problems of disruptive junior high school students were investigated. Ten disruptive students were randomly assigned to the two treatments: One program instructed parents to use only positive consequences in response to daily reports brought home from school and the oth...
The contribution of self-esteem and locus of control to the discrepancy in academic achievement between Hispanics and Anglos was investigated. Subjects were 67 Hispanic and 304 junior high school students. Variables were: (a) ethnicity, (b) grade-point average, (c) academic self-esteem, (d) academic locus of control and (e) socioeconomic level. Res...
Millions of people each year report personal discomfort or behavioral problems resulting from allergies (Faelten, 1983). An allergy is defined by Webster’s Dictionary (1974) as a “hypersensitivity to a specific substance (such as a food, pollen, dust, etc.) or condition (as heat or cold) which in similar amounts is harmless to most people: it is ma...
Assessed a high school peer counseling program by surveying 893 10th–12th graders on the level of student concerns and on satisfaction with counseling. Sophomores used peer counseling more than either juniors or seniors, suggesting that such usage is a consequence of transition from junior high to high school. Girls were more likely than boys to me...
Many studies examining the effects of treatments for socially isolated/withdrawn children have used behavioral measures to assess children's peer relations. In an attempt to examine the concurrent validity of these measures, we observed 258 preschool children during free play and coded their interactions into the categories of positive, negative, a...
We examined the effects of sugar on the behavior of 45 preschool and elementary school children. Using a double-blind within-subject challenge design, we provided all children with a basic breakfast that included a challenge drink containing either 50 g of sucrose, a placebo (aspartame) of comparable sweetness, or only a very small amount of sucros...
An 11-year-old girl with a severe and recalcitrant case of trichotillomania was successfully treated with a modified habit reversal procedure. Erosion estimates and serial photographic assessment methods were used to document client progress over a one-year period. Treatment effects were socially validated by attractiveness ratings of 20 same-aged...
Teachers report using both reprimands and encouragement as strategies to reduce offtask behavior in the classroom. Although numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of reprimands, none has examined the efficacy of encouragement. In order to answer this question, two experiments were performed. Subjects were 16 children with academic and...
The effects of continuous and intermittent verbal reprimands and response cost (loss of recess time) on the off-task classroom behaviors of children with behavior problems were examined. Results indicated that all four interventions significantly decreased off-task behavior compared to a no-treatment baseline. The continuous use of response cost re...
This case study documents the difficulties involved in withdrawing a 9-yearold hyperactive boy from methylphenidate (Ritalin), and highlights the detrimental effects caused by this child's maladaptive attributions. Treatment involved a behavioral approach and cognitive procedures aimed at changing the dysfunctional attributions. The role of attribu...
This study addressed the question of whether an all-positive approach to classroom management can be effective. The on-task behavior and academic performance of eight, second- and third-grade children with behavior problems were examined. Results indicated that an all-positive approach that relied primarily on praise was not effective. However, whe...
Teachers use both positive and negative consequences to influence classroom behaviors. Four experiments were conducted to examine the differential affects of these two types of consequences on the maintenance of appropriate behaviors of hyperactive children. Results of Experiment 1 showed that the use of both positive and negative consequences (com...

... Barkley (1987) hypothesized that the discrepancy in the results of these studies is probably related to the different ages of the participants (i.e., parental praise is more likely to function as a powerful reinforcer for younger children than for older students) and to behavior problem severity (i.e., more severe behavior problems may require more concrete backup reinforcers). Rosen, Gabardi, Miller, and Miller (1990) showed that the combination of reinforcement plus response cost may be more effective than reinforcement alone in home-based reinforcement programs. More recently, McCain & Kelley (1994) compared the effectiveness of a school-home note with and without response cost on the disruptive and on-task behavior of three preadolescents. ...
... For the physical abuse scenarios, behaviors of tightly grabbing their partner's arm and slapping their partner in the face were used based on vignettes of physical abuse used in prior work (e.g., Hamby & Jackson, 2010). For the psychological abuse, behaviors of cursing, accusing their partner of flirting with someone else, and threatening to break up with their partner were used based on vignettes of psychological abuse used in prior work (e.g., Beyers et al., 2000). ...
... Participants with divorced parents had a significantly higher MAS score than those with married parents, probably because they were worried they might experience the same marital problems as their parents. Earlier research has also shown that people with divorced parents are more likely to have negative views about marriage (Ergin, Bekar & Aydemir Acar, 2019;Gabardi & Rosén, 1991;Long, 1987;Tasker, 1992;Yılmaz & Yalçın, 2021). These results indicate that parents' marital status affects their children's worries about and attitudes toward marriage. ...
... The association between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and aggression has been well documented across both past (Kitchens et al., 1999) and recent (Murray et al., 2021) work, and is known to contribute to psychosocial impairment in those with the neurodevelopmental condition (Zucchetti et al., 2015). For example, antisocial behavior linked with ADHD may put young people more at risk of peer alienation, poorer academic achievements, and difficulties in their home life (Timimi, 2005). ...
... The model attempts to meet specific needs through teaching students appropriate social skills and reinforcing the use of those skills through a token economy. This model is typically used in residential treatment settings, but has been adapted for school settings (Bishop et al. 1996). In a school setting, students are taught appropriate classroom behaviors (i.e., following directions) and earn points for using the learned skills or lose points for engaging in inappropriate behaviors, and the appropriate skill is taught. ...
... However, although academic success can be considered the average score a student achieves in courses in an academic program, it is influenced dramatically by many "non-intellectual" factors (Jamil & Khalid, 2016, Özgüven, 1998. These factors include starting school earlier or later (Küçüker, 2016), form of self-perception (Greven, Harlaar, Kovas, Chamorro-Premuzic & Plomin, 2009), social withdrawal and sense of guilt (Jamil& Khalid, 2016), familial support for the child's personality and socio-cultural development, parents' voluntary participation in school events and positive communication with their children (Şad, 2012), family socio-economic characteristics (Yelgün & Karaman, 2015), and self-regard (Strassburger, Rosen, Miller, & Chavez, 1990;Keltikangas-Järvinen, 1992;Zuffianò, Alessandri, Gerbino, Kanacri, Di Giunta, Milioni & Caprara, 2013;Di Giunta, Alessandri, Gerbino, Kanacri, Zuffiano & Caprara, 2013;Alyami, Ullah, Alyami, Hill, & Henning, 2017). ...
... In early work, Wender (1995) noted the reduced ability to endure stress as a feature of ADHD. Recent research supports his observation, showing that individuals with ADHD have reductions in coping ability (Kaminski et al., 2006;Riley et al., 2006). We know of no study that has investigated whether resilience factors mediate the relationship between ADHD symptoms and perceived stress in college students. ...
... Although the true prevalence of ADHD among college students (i.e., typical adult-level education) is unclear, estimates range from 4% to 8% of students (Weyandt & Dupaul, 2008), consistent with the transition from pediatric to adult ADHD prevalence estimates (Kessler et al., 2006;Polanczyk et al., 2007;Willcutt, 2012). College students who self-reported greater ADHD symptomology were less organized, less methodical in their work, had fewer self-control behaviors, and procrastinated significantly more than low-symptom peers (Turnock et al., 1998). Like their peers with learning disabilities, college students with diagnosed ADHD scored significantly worse than controls on measures of motivation, information processing, and self-testing (Reaser et al., 2007). ...
... Test-retest reliability of the MAS was assessed using 206 participants (113 from introductory psychology students, 93 from a child psychology course; Bassett et al. 1999). Participants completed the MAS at Time 1, and again 6 weeks later. ...
