ADHD and medicalization: consideration of the senses and meanings of symptoms presented by children diagnosed

The present paper is a reflection on the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and its relations to the process of medicalization as well as the meanings and perspectives apprehended through three case studies of children diagnosed with such disorder in a doctoral research in which the main purpose was to understand the meanings and peculiarities of ADHD symptomatology .We’ve utilized the model of qualitative research, grounded in psychoanalytic perspective, and conducted the psychodiagnosis for three children who were referred for psychological treatment. The survey found that those children had few experiences of both continence and frustration tolerance. It was evidenced how the school uses the logic of medicalization to try solving the problems with their children when it came to the school dimension. The variety of symptomatic manifestations and psychic dynamics presented by the cases that were studied revealed the weaknesses and inconsistencies of the referred diagnosis.

A explosão do consumo de Ritalina

A sociedade atual vive desde a década de 50 uma “revolução psicofarmacológica”, em que os avanços tecnológicos da psiquiatria e da neurologia possibilitam a criação de dispositivos que conseguem ter uma melhor visualização do funcionamento físico-químico do cérebro, onde o paradigma de tratamento de sofrimento psíquico passou a ser baseado na utilização de psicotrópicos. Dessa forma, a medicina buscou tratar neurocientificamente comportamentos desviantes da norma social. Nesse cenário, o diagnóstico do Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade (TDAH) desponta com certa freqüência e com uma constância ainda maior o uso de Ritalina, nome comercial do metilfenidato, no tratamento do suposto transtorno, principalmente em crianças. Esse presente trabalho faz uma reflexão, a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica, a cerca do aumento do consumo de Ritalina nos últimos anos, procurando problematizar a forma indiscriminada de diagnosticar e tratar o TDAH.

Sociocognitive performance in autism spectrum disorders and interference of the therapeutic environment

To analyze the sociocognitive performance of children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders in two environments of language therapy, which differ as to the physical structure. Ten children and adolescents with ages between 4 and 13 years, of both genders, diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders took part in the study. For data collection, eight filming sessions were performed during individual language therapy lasting 30 minutes, being four in a room with conventional environmental organization (common room) and four in a room with specific ambiance [children's interaction core (CIC) room], interspersed during a month. For the analysis of filmed situations, the Sociocognitive Performance Protocol was used and obtained data were subjected to statistical analysis. No statistical significance was found in sociocognitive performance of 10 subjects in the common and CIC rooms, although specific differences were observed in some cases. The creation of preestablished physical environments or specific materials is not and should not be considered essential for language therapy. It is noteworthy, however, that the absence of a large volume of statistically significant data does not indicate that the results are not expressive, reiterating the need for further research in the area.
