Recently, I participated in a forum with my cohort in the PsyD in Clinical Psychology I am active in. The topic of the ineffectiveness of treatment methods for ADHD and ODD in children and adolescents is worth exploring to be sure. Ray (2018) noted ADHD incorporates two dimensions: inattention and hyperactivity as well as impulsivity. Children who exhibit hypersensitivity and impulsivity might also have conduct problems. The researcher explained that a single treatment cannot address other conditions that the individual suffers from. Pharmacological interventions might reduce impulsivity in individuals with ADHD. However, cognitive behavioral therapies might be more effective although it can take a longer amount of time. The researcher noted parent -child interaction therapy can also be helpful for children with both ADHD and other disorders.
