Summary: Medical papers dating back to 1798 always include emotion in the conceptualization of ADHD. This continued up to the 1970 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 2nd Ed. (DSM-II). Since then, emotional dysregulation has been excluded from the clinical conceptualization of the condition. In this episode, host, Jeff Copper, will interview Dr. Russell Barkley who will argue why emotion needs to be returned to a central place in ADHD. Call 646-652-4409 and listen to his show live.
