Article Abstract
Background: The study of ADHD has predominantly focused on individual-level risk-factors, and less is known about contextual factors that promote adaptive functioning.
Aims: The present study is the first to evaluate the longitudinal association between five dimensions of school climate (academic expectations, student engagement, disciplinary structure, respect for students, willingness to seek help) and student outcomes, and whether ADHD symptom severity moderates those associations.
Methods And Procedures: Participants included 274 adolescents (45 % female) who completed assessments in 8th (T1) and 10th (T2) grades.
Results: Hierarchical regressions revealed that school climate predicted multiple outcomes over and above ADHD symptom severity, including academic motivation, homework performance, emotion dysregulation, internalizing symptoms, and close friendships. A fair but strict school disciplinary structure and respect for students were the most consistent predictors of study outcomes regardless of ADHD symptom severity. Further, higher levels of disciplinary structure and willingness to seek help attenuated the association between ADHD symptom severity to internalizing symptoms and emotion dysregulation, respectively.
Conclusions And Implications: Interventions are needed that target school level contextual factors, such as applying fair and consistent discipline and demonstrating respect for students. Structural level school factors may partially mitigate the negative impact of ADHD symptoms.

Background: Temperament has been increasingly studied in relation to neurodevelopmental disorders, including Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study examines the association between ADHD and affective temperament traits using the Temperament Scale of Memphis, Pisa, Paris, and San Diego (TEMPS-A) in a clinical outpatient sample in Beirut, Lebanon.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 2564 psychiatric outpatients aged 15 or older who completed the TEMPS-A.

This systematic review was conducted to provide a comprehensive summary of biopsychosocial factors associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), and identify key limitations and gaps in the current literature. Systematic literature searches were conducted in Scopus, PsycINFO, Web of Science, PubMed, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global in March 2024. The searches identified 2,345 unique articles.

Background: Subclinical hypomanic symptoms are fairly common in the general population but are linked to psychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions. However, the genetic and environmental origins of these associations are unclear. This twin study examined the phenotypic and aetiological associations between subclinical hypomania and psychiatric and neurodevelopmental diagnoses.

Objective: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common childhood psychiatric disorders and a common presenting concern in primary and developmental pediatric care. However, objective diagnostic tools are currently not available, leading to delayed and missed diagnoses. The current systematic review aimed to determine whether objective indices can serve as diagnostic markers for pediatric ADHD.

Background: Vitamin interventions have emerged as a cost-effective and accessible approach to managing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), primarily for alleviating gastrointestinal symptoms such as constipation. Recent studies suggest vitamins may also improve core symptoms, yet most existing research focuses on comparisons between patients and healthy controls, lacking clinically relevant, evidence-based insights.
Methods: A meta-analysis was conducted using studies retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library, focusing on vitamin interventions in ASD and ADHD populations.
