%0 Journal Article %T School strain as specific stressor for children with hyperkinetic syndrome %A Zde¨¾ka Michalov¨¢ %A Ilona Pe£¿atov¨¢ %J GRANT journal %D 2012 %I Institute of Developing Politics %X The paper focuses on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder within the educational process. On the basis of a nonrandom sample of integrated seventh to ninth grade pupils with ADHD/ADD (experimental group) and intact pupils of the same age (checking group), preferences of the used coping strategies obtained through a non-standardized questionnaire are analysed. Using the SPAS questionnaire, the level of pupils¡¯ self-assessment in both groups is examined. Although the data obtained are not generalised, the lower self-assessment in boys with ADHD can be documented together with the choice of less mature coping strategies in children with ADHD when addressing the problem situation. %K ADHD %K coping strategy %K education %K hyperkinetic syndrome %K specific behavioural disorders %K school strain %U http://www.grantjournal.com/issue/0102/PDF/0102michalova.pdf
