Kinder sind grundsätzlich aktiver, überschwänglicher, weniger konzentriert und impulsiver als Erwachsene. Schwierigkeiten, die daraus entstehen, werden sich in der Regel «auswachsen». Doch es gibt Ausnahmen, und so selten sind diese nicht: Bei Kindern, deren Unaufmerksamkeit, Bewegungsdrang und Unbeherrschtheit ein gewisses Maß übersteigt, besteht der Verdacht auf eine Entwicklungsstörung. Diese wird als Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-/Hyperaktivitäts-Störung oder ADHS bezeichnet. Um diese Störung geht es in Barkleys Buch!

To diagnose a mental disorder or make a disability determination, clinicians must assess functional impairment--not just the presence of symptoms. Meeting a key need, the Barkley Functional Impairment Scale--Children and Adolescents (BFIS-CA) is an empirically based, norm-referenced tool that exceeds other available scales in its comprehensive coverage of domains of psychosocial impairment. The BFIS-CA is designed to obtain parent reports on possible impairment in 15 different domains of everyday activities for children and teens. The scale typically takes a parent 5-7 minutes to complete....

The Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale (BDEFS) is an empirically based tool for evaluating dimensions of adult executive functioning in daily life. Evidence indicates that the BDEFS is far more predictive of impairments in major life activities than more time-consuming and costly traditional EF tests. The BDEFS offers an ecologically valid snapshot of the capacities involved in time management; organization and problem solving; self-restraint; self-motivation; and self-regulation of emotions. Provided are both self- and other-reports in a long form (15-20 minutes) and a short...

This groundbreaking book offers a comprehensive theory of executive functioning (EF) with important clinical implications. Synthesizing cutting-edge neuropsychological and evolutionary research, Russell A. Barkley presents a model of EF that is rooted in meaningful activities of daily life. He describes how abilities such as emotion regulation, self-motivation, planning, and working memory enable people to pursue both personal and collective goals that are critical to survival. Key stages of EF development are identified and the far-reaching individual and social costs of EF deficits...
