Airplane Mode Off: Living a Life with Dynamic Behavioral Pattern of an ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) Patient

Abstract

ADHD is a disorder that includes inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity of a certain child or person. As claimed by Matthew Smith in his study, ADHD is present in 5.29% of the world’s children, with an increasing number every year. This study sought to describe the behavioral pattern of an ADHD patient. The study aimed to describe the pattern of behavior, uniqueness of the patient, and the intervention done by the teacher. The researchers processed a letter that seeks for the permission of the school heads and other people involved for the study to be conducted. The data were gathered via interview, which consisted of questions concerning the objectives of the study. The data gathered relevant information. Also, based on the interview, it proved that the patient is unique because of his capability to read very well compared to the other pupils, yet consists of flaws that a normal ADHD patient would experience.
