title: Multimodality approaches in the treatment of attention deficit disorders.
abstract: This article describes the diagnostic process and various etiologic considerations that underpin the formulation of a comprehensive treatment program for a child with attention deficit disorder and then goes on to describe treatment modalities and strategies. The authors then suggest that the coordinated use of problem-specific treatment modalities is likely to prove more therapeutic and cost-effective than a global treatment.
