"This study
was designed to assess general and special education teachers'
knowledge, opinions, and experience related to the diagnosis of
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and its treatment with
stimulant medication. A random sample of 200 general educators and 200
special educators from Wisconsin were surveyed. Results revealed that
teachers had limited knowledge about ADHD and the use of
psychostimulant medication. Teachers' opinions about the effect of
stimulant medication on school-related behaviors were generally
positive, although special education teachers were more positive than
general educators. The survey confirmed previous research indicating
that teachers were the school personnel who most frequently recommended
an assessment for ADHD. The results are discussed In terms of their
educational significance and implications for teacher preparation and
continuing education.
