Abstract
The study examines how medication impacts the use of adaptive coping strategies by children with ADHD. Preliminary findings show no significant differences in coping strategy use between medication and non-medication groups. Analyses will examine relevant sub-scales and compare the impacts of medication and coping strategies on ADHD symptoms.
