ADHD Tests for Children

For a family, children are the most important bond of the family, so if a child shows some symptoms, the whole family will be in trouble. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children is a hidden danger for many children, so many parents want to know the diagnosis methods of this disease in daily life so that they can detect and treat it early. So, how can we correctly diagnose ADHD? Let's talk about the diagnosis of ADHD in detail.

1. The use of ADHD drugs is effective in treating ADHD, but ineffective for autism. This can also be used to diagnose ADHD.

2. Intelligence problems are also a basis for the diagnosis of ADHD. Children with autism have significantly low intelligence, and some are even unable to undergo psychological tests. This is completely different from the normal intelligence of children with ADHD. Of course, they also have special skills in some areas (such as counting, singing, painting, etc.).

3. If autism develops seriously, it may cause mental disorders similar to schizophrenia, with children not afraid of danger, laughing or crying wildly, and having temper tantrums, etc. However, children with ADHD will not develop to the severity of schizophrenia.

Being active and naughty is different from being active and naughty. Being active and naughty is a child's nature. However, if a child's physical activities are obviously more than children of the same age, and his self-control is poor and he cannot calm down, you should be alert to whether your child has ADHD.

The study found that there are four essential differences between ADHD and children's naughtiness:

① In terms of attention, naughty children can concentrate on things that interest them and hate being disturbed by others, while children with ADHD are absent-minded and cannot finish what they play; ② In terms of self-control, naughty children can restrain themselves and sit still in an unfamiliar environment and under special requirements, while children with ADHD cannot sit still at all; ③ In terms of behavioral activities, the active behavior of naughty children usually has reasons and purposes, while the behavior of children with ADHD is mostly impulsive and lacks purpose; ④ In terms of physiology, naughty children have quick thinking, coordinated movements, and no defects in memory and recognition, while children with ADHD have obvious deficiencies.

If parents want to understand the diagnosis methods of ADHD in children in daily life, they must read the above content in detail so that they can check and diagnose their children in daily life. However, parents must pay attention to the difference between ADHD and children's naughtiness before diagnosing this disease to avoid misdiagnosis that affects their children's physical health.
