THE CHARACTERISTICS OF SITUATIONALLY AND PERVASIVELY HYPERACTIVE CHILDREN: IMPLICATIONS FOR SYNDROME DEFINITION

Schachar, Russell, Rutter, Michael, Smith, Alan·1981·Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry

Abstract

SUMMARY: Types of “hyperkinetic syndrome” were studied using data from the general population epidemiological study of 10‐to 11‐year‐olds on the Isle of Wight who were followed up at 14–15 years old. Characteristics of situationally hyperactive children were compared with those of pervasively hyperactive children, as defined in terms of the hyperactivity factor scores on the Rimer parent and teacher questionnaires. The association of situational hyperactivity with general emotional/behavioural disturbance was a nonspecific Ending; situational unsociability was also related to disturbance. In contrast, pervasive hyperactivity, a clinically distinctive behaviour pattern, was strongly associated with general behavioural disturbance, persistence of overall disorder and marked cognitive impairment. These findings indicate the importance of identifying the type of hyperactivity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
