Hyperactivity

A Cultural Perspective

Gerald H. Block, PhD

Gerald H. Block, A Learning Place, 6472, Moraga Ave., Oakland, Calif. 94611

Most research on hyperactivity views the problem as either organic or emotional in nature, originating exclusively within the child or his immediate home environment. By comparison, little research has taken into account the effect on this problem of the tremendous cultural changes which have occurred in the last century. A number of such cultural (and environmental) studies are reviewed, and a new direction for further research on hyperactivity is suggested.
