Summary
This study will test the efficacy of a systematic, multi-modal intervention protocol designed
to improve sleep functioning and subsequent alleviation of daytime cognitive and behavioral
difficulties among children diagnosed with ADHD. It is hypothesized that children receiving
behavioral and (if necessary) pharmacologic interventions targeting sleep will display
improvement on objective and subjective sleep measures, neuropsychological tests, and
teacher-, and parent-ratings of ADHD behaviors.
