Abstract
ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) represents one of the most important disorders in child psychiatry and psychology. Despite multifactorial attitude to ADHD has predominantly been presented, this disorder keeps eliciting controversies in therapeutic approaches, both in psychopharmacological trends and in preferences of psychosocial interventions.
The authors describe theoretical basis and therapeutical methods of both trends and show benefits of their reciprocal combination. Controversial attitudes proceed mainly from personal prejudices than from scientific incompatibility of different approaches.
