PSYC-8080: ADHD/LD Assessment & Consultation

Addresses the issues involved in assessment, intervention and consultation in the areas of Attention Deficit Disorder and Learning Disability, both of which are strongly implicated in virtually all neurologic and neuropsychological disorder. This course reviews varying models of Attention Deficit Disorder, theories of resilience and self-efficacy which are integrally bound up with ADD and learning disability as well specific cognitive, academic and organizational presentations of learning disability. The overarching goal of this course is a comprehensive understanding of the varying constructs available as regards ADD/LD and associated co-morbidities, the ability to use well standardized assessment tools for comprehensive evaluation; the ability to develop effective and appropriate interventions and finally the ability to provide effective consultation to the patient, stakeholders and the larger environment in which the client is expected to function.
