Identifying Emotional and Behavioral Problems in Children Aged 4-17 Years
This report compares three measures of emotional and behavioral problems, using data for children aged 4-17 years old from the 2001-2007 National Health Interview Survey in the United States. The measures were a brief version of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, a single answer checkbox on the survey, or a combination of both. The findings indicate that the recorded prevalence of emotional and behavioral problems depends on the measure selected.
Diagnosed Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Learning Disability: U. S. , 2004-2006
Presents national estimates of the prevalence of diagnosed attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and learning disability (LD) in U.S. children 6-17 years of age and describes the prevalence of these conditions for children with selected characteristics. The use of educational and health care services and the prevalence of other health conditions are contrasted for children with ADHD without LD, LD without ADHD, both conditions, and neither condition. Estimates are based on data from the National Health Interview Survey, an ongoing national household survey of the civilian non-institutionalized population of the U.S. The analysis focuses on 23,051 children 6-17 years of age in a child sample from 2004, 2005, and 2006.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Among Children Aged 5-17 Years in the United States, 1998-2009. NCHS Data Brief. Number 70
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common mental health disorders of childhood. The symptoms of ADHD (inattention, impulsive behavior, and hyperactivity) begin in childhood and often persist into adulthood. These symptoms frequently lead to functional impairment in academic, family, and social settings. The causes and risk factors for ADHD are unknown, but genetic factors likely play a role. Diagnosis of ADHD involves several steps, including a medical exam; a checklist for rating ADHD symptoms based on reports from parents, teachers, and sometimes the child; and an evaluation for coexisting conditions. Recent national surveys have documented an increase in the prevalence of ADHD during the past decade. This report presents recent trends in prevalence and differences between population subgroups of children aged 5-17 years. (Contains 4 figures.).
Association Between Diagnosed ADHD and Selected Characteristics Among Children Aged 4-17 Years
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder diagnosed in U.S. children (1). While this disorder is most often diagnosed in children when they are in elementary school, it is increasingly being identified in preschool children (2-5). This report describes the prevalence of diagnosed ADHD among children aged 4-17 years using parent-reported data collected in a large, nationally representative health survey. Differences in the prevalence of diagnosed ADHD are examined by selected demographic and socioeconomic variables: the child's sex, race and Hispanic ethnicity, health insurance coverage, and poverty status for all children aged 4-17 and among age groups 4-5, 6-11, and 12-17.
