The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of story mapping on the reading comprehension scores, on-task behaviours, and attitudes of third-grade students (N = 6) with ADHD. Students’ reading grade equivalencies were assessed before and after the study. The teacher-researcher compared two other achievement measures before and during story mapping to assess growth. The practical difference in scores as calculated with Cohen’s d revealed that story mapping was successful in improving students’ comprehension. On tests from the reading basal, students’ scores improved an average of 16.00%, while tests from a computerized reading program improved 20.00%. Students exhibited on-task behaviour 79.33% of the time and positive attitudes 82.33% of the time during the intervention. The implications of this study are important in determining effective instructional strategies to promote the active engagement of students and combat the core symptoms of ADHD.

The paper surveys the clinical profile of childhood executive disorders and then presents the test battery adopted and elaborated to investigate these types of disorders. The Hungarian studies done on several hundred clinical and control subjects allow for a careful analysis of comorbidity patterns as well. ADHD was accompanied by a challenge to all prefrontal functions, while Tourette syndrome was typically accompanied by impaired prefrontal inhibitory functions. At the same time the obsessive-compulsive disorder was not accompanied by impairments in the dorsolateral circle. Emotional decisions were impaired in this as well, however. In anorexia nervosa the prefrontal system was challenged while according to our neuropsychological data it is a symptom alike obsessive-compulsive disorder.
