Abstract

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Asperger’s Syndrome, which now falls under Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) according to the DSM- 5, represent two distinct yet sometimes overlapping neurodevelopmental disorders. Both conditions present significant cognitive, behavioral, and social challenges from early childhood through adolescence. As clinical understanding of these disorders has evolved, so too have the neuropsychological approaches to treatment. This chapter explores innovative intervention strategies that incorporate cutting- edge technology, evolving therapeutic practices, and a strengths- based approach to managing ADHD and Asperger’s Syndrome. By doing so, it offers a modern, comprehensive framework for treating these conditions in pediatric neuropsychology.
