ADHD in the Schools, Third Edition

"DuPaul and Stoner have once again produced a significant, 'must-read' volume. Recognizing ADHD as a complex neurocognitive disorder, the authors eloquently describe the importance of early screening and assessment for informing individualized supports, accommodations, and evidence-based interventions. The volume includes excellent case examples, highly useful strategies for communication and collaboration with other professionals and parents, and resources such as referral letters and relevant websites. Highly recommended." --Linda A. Reddy, PhD, School Psychology Doctoral Program, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey

"An exceptional resource for health care professionals and educators and an ideal text for graduate-level psychology and education courses. The third edition has been fully updated and expanded with the latest research, including advances in school-based screening and assessment, academic and behavioral interventions, promoting school-home collaboration, and medication management. Across all topics, state-of-the-art research findings are translated into clear, usable practices highlighted by pertinent case examples and ready-to-use tools and tips. This should be the standard guidebook for ADHD services in schools across the country." --Linda Pfiffner, PhD, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of California, San Francisco
