Five hundred forty-three students participated in the study. The prevalence of ADHD according to criteria of DSM-4 among them was 15.2%, including three subgroups: ADHD (inattentive)- 9.7%, combined- 4.5%, and ADHD-hyperactivity-impulsivity (HI)- 1%. The prevalence of learning disability (LD) was 17.6%. The gender ratio in both groups (ADHD and LD) was equal. These pupils had lower academic achievements with lower marks. The prevalence of ADHD/LD found in the present study in Israel is in a higher range of those reported in the literature. We should remember that ADHD/LD is a neuro-behavioral disability and these children and adolescents need an early educational correcting program at home and at school.
543名学生参与了这项研究。根据《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第四版(DSM - 4)标准,他们中注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的患病率为15.2%,包括三个亚组:注意力不集中型ADHD——9.7%,混合型——4.5%,以及多动冲动型ADHD(HI)——1%。学习障碍(LD)的患病率为17.6%。两组(ADHD组和LD组)的性别比例相同。这些学生的学业成绩较低,分数也较低。本研究在以色列发现的ADHD/LD患病率高于文献报道的范围。我们应该记住,ADHD/LD是一种神经行为障碍,这些儿童和青少年在家庭和学校都需要早期教育矫正计划。
