Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not long ago, conventional wisdom held that ADHD was a disorder of childhood only—that somewhere during puberty or adolescence, the child would outgrow it. Now we know better: the majority of children with the disorder continue to display symptoms throughout adolescence and into adulthood. It is during the teen and young adult years that the psychological and academic needs of young people with ADHD change considerably, and clinical and campus professionals are not always sufficiently prepared to meet the challenge. College Students with ADHD is designed to bring the professional reader up to speed. The book reviews the latest findings on ADHD in high school and college students, assessment methods, and pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions. Practical guidelines are included for helping young adults make the transition to college, so they may cope with their disorder and do as well as possible in school and social settings. Coverage is straightforward, realistic, and geared toward optimum functioning and outcomes. Among the topics featured: - Background information, from current statistics to diagnostic issues. - ADHD in high school adolescents. - ADHD in college students: behavioral, academic, and psychosocial functioning. - Assessment of ADHD in college students. - Psychosocial/educational treatment of ADHD in college students. - Pharmacotherapy for college students with ADHD. - Future directions for practice and research. The comprehensive information in College Students with ADHD provides a wealth of information to researchers and professionals working with this population, including clinical and school psychologists, school and college counselors, special education teachers, social workers, developmental psychologists, and disability support staff on college campuses, as well as allied mental health providers.

Book excerpt: Feelings of apprehension and fear brought on by mathematical performance can affect correct mathematical application and can influence the achievement and future paths of individuals affected by it. In recent years, mathematics anxiety has become a subject of increasing interest both in educational and clinical settings. This ground-breaking collection presents theoretical, educational and psychophysiological perspectives on the widespread phenomenon of mathematics anxiety. Featuring contributions from leading international researchers, Mathematics Anxiety challenges preconceptions and clarifies several crucial areas of research, such as the distinction between mathematics anxiety from other forms of anxiety (i.e., general or test anxiety); the ways in which mathematics anxiety has been assessed (e.g. throughout self-report questionnaires or psychophysiological measures); the need to clarify the direction of the relationship between math anxiety and mathematics achievement (which causes which). Offering a revaluation of the negative connotations usually associated with mathematics anxiety and prompting avenues for future research, this book will be invaluable to academics and students in the field psychological and educational sciences, as well as teachers working with students who are struggling with mathematics anxiety

This book was released on 2017-01-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical anxiety is a feeling of tension, apprehension or fear which arises when a person is faced with mathematical content. The negative consequences of mathematical anxiety are well-documented. Students with high levels of mathematical anxiety might underperform in important test situations, they tend to hold negative attitudes towards mathematics, and they are likely to opt out of elective mathematics courses, which also affects their career opportunities. Although at the university level many students do not continue to study mathematics, social science students are confronted with the fact that their disciplines involve learning about statistics - another potential source of anxiety for students who are uncomfortable with dealing with numerical content. Research on mathematical anxiety is a truly interdisciplinary field with contributions from educational, developmental, cognitive, social and neuroscience researchers. The current collection of papers demonstrates the diversity of the field, offering both new empirical contributions and reviews of existing studies. The contributors also outline future directions for this line of research.

This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotions play a critical role in mathematical cognition and learning. Understanding Emotions in Mathematical Thinking and Learning offers a multidisciplinary approach to the role of emotions in numerical cognition, mathematics education, learning sciences, and affective sciences. It addresses ways in which emotions relate to cognitive processes involved in learning and doing mathematics, including processing of numerical and physical magnitudes (e.g. time and space), performance in arithmetic and algebra, problem solving and reasoning attitudes, learning technologies, and mathematics achievement. Additionally, it covers social and affective issues such as identity and attitudes toward mathematics. - Covers methodologies in studying emotion in mathematical knowledge - Reflects the diverse and innovative nature of the methodological approaches and theoretical frameworks proposed by current investigations of emotions and mathematical cognition - Includes perspectives from cognitive experimental psychology, neuroscience, and from sociocultural, semiotic, and discursive approaches - Explores the role of anxiety in mathematical learning - Synthesizes unifies the work of multiple sub-disciplines in one place

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to compare rates of anxiety disorders and symptoms in college students with and without ADHD and to identify factors that protect against anxiety in this population. Forty-six college students with ADHD and a matched control group of 46 students without ADHD participated in this study. Participants completed a diagnostic interview to assess for lifetime and current anxiety disorders; they also completed several measures of anxiety symptoms. As expected, participants with ADHD were more likely to have a lifetime history of an anxiety disorder than participants without ADHD, and were also more likely to report having entered college with a previous history of an anxiety disorder. Participants in the two groups were equally likely to meet diagnostic criteria for a current anxiety disorder. Participants in the ADHD group endorsed significantly lower self-efficacy and significantly higher maladaptive beliefs about worry and obsessive-compulsive symptoms compared with the control group, though the between-group differences in maladaptive beliefs about worry and obsessive-compulsive symptoms were no longer significant when depressive symptoms were covaried. The two groups did not differ on symptoms of panic, social anxiety, or worry, which was unexpected. Perceived social support was associated with a lower risk of having a current anxiety disorder in the ADHD group. The findings of this study highlight the substantial comorbidity that students with ADHD display upon college entry."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the frameworks of Malloy (1994) and Montague (2003), I was able to make the following recommendations. (1) Exhibiting mathematics anxiety symptoms may not completely hinder student performance. (2) Drawing pictures or diagrams maybe important for high mathematics anxiety students when solving problems, but not necessarily meaningful. (3) Mathematics anxiety may lead to an inability to recall previously studied material which hinders student performance. (4) Failure to use all of the thinking processes described by Montague (2003) does not hinder the student's ability to successfully solve mathematical problems. (5) Difficulty with reading skills may hinder the problem solving process. (6) Students must be able to check their calculations and check for the use of correct procedures. (7) Mathematical anxiety symptoms can be visibly present even if a student does not notice the symptoms himself.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) creates profound impairments. Even when K-12 school-based interventions are successful and students with ADHD matriculate to college, there is a high likelihood of college dropout, failing grades, substance use, dangerous driving, and risky sexual behavior. Unfortunately, there are few proven mental health treatments for college students with ADHD, and little is known about what works for whom. The present study examined the acceptability and efficacy of ADHD coaching for college students and examined the moderating impact of anxiety on psychoeducational outcomes. Fifty-nine students were randomly assigned to ADHD coaching (n = 30) or a control condition (n = 29). Consistent with previous research, students were significantly more satisfied with ADHD coaching and rated the intervention as significantly more acceptable than students in the control condition. The main effect of ADHD coaching was inconclusive, but a small positive effect on grade point average (GPA) was noted. Results from simple moderation analyses were similarly inconclusive, but trends tentatively suggest that high levels of anxiety may be a risk factor for self-reported psychoeducational outcomes but also may confer treatment benefit for academic outcomes. Recruiting large samples of college students representing a wide range of trait anxiety appears necessary to examine the impact of comorbid anxiety on psychoeducational outcomes.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to determine whether the use of anxiety reduction and mathematics study skills techniques incorporated in a Basic Math course would lower students' math anxiety and increase achievement in African American students enrolled in a Historically Black College. This study was limited to only African American students enrolled in two sections of Basic Math at Rust College, in Holly Springs, Mississippi: one control class (33 students) and one treatment class (33 students). One professor, the researcher, taught the same lectures and used traditional methods of teaching in both classes. In the treatment class the teacher used anxiety reduction and math study skills techniques such as collaborative learning, journal writing, learning activities, relaxation instructions, and test taking skills over an eight week period. Identical math content was covered in both sections. Achievement was measured by the Rust College Placement Exam and mathematics anxiety was measured by administering the Math Anxiety Rating Scale after each class test. The obtained results indicated a significant reduction in anxiety (p = .000) and a significant increase in achievement (p = .000) for the treatment group. Additionally, a significant difference in gender was indicated for anxiety (p = .019), but not for achievement (p = .779) for the treatment group.
