Abstract

One of the most globally prevalent neurobehavioral disorders, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), affects approximately 6.1 million children in the United States alone (CDC, 2020). It was found that childhood ADHD cases from 2003-2011 increased by 42 percent, resulting in questions about the validity of diagnosed cases (NIH, 2017). Furthermore, when compared to other countries, the United States shows an alarmingly high prevalence of ADHD cases in children.
