摘要
This study of 14 hyperactive boys reports that activity and attention span appear to be affected by methylphenidate even in highly stimulating, informal settings. Comparison of the hyperactive boys with a group of 14 normal controls suggests that this drug‐induced reduction of activity and inattentiveness is not a “normalizing” effect. Implications of the findings are discussed. 1979 American Orthopsychiatric Association
