    Description

    This study investigated the relationship between caregivers’ early views of ADHD treatment and the decision to initiate and continue medication for their child. 48 caregivers of newly diagnosed children participated in qualitative, semistructured telephone interviews with 6 and 12 month follow-ups. Analysis of the initial interview responses revealed 4 categories associated with caregiver perspectives: a) illness oriented, b) problem oriented, c) generally acceptable and, d) unacceptable. This dataset includes demographic information, family history of psychiatric illness, comorbid diagnoses, use of medication, and transcripts of initial, 6 month, and 12 month follow-up interviews.

    Description

    Survey data of psychometric properties was evaluated to investigate the prevalence of research misbehaviors in the Middle East. The survey implemented an "attitude" scale, a 21 question survey using a five-point Likert scale. The 254 respondents included academic faculty, individuals with master's and PhD degrees, postdoctoral students, senior undergraduates, and individuals working in research positions. The attitude scale was adapted from a prior questionnaire survey - A Cross-Sectional Survey Study to Assess Prevalence and Attitudes Regarding Research Misconduct among Investigators in the Middle East doi /10.1007/s10805-017-9295-9

    This dataset consists of survey responses from 57 African American parents/caregivers whose child was receiving care for ADHD in a university-affiliated pediatric primary care unit.

In addition to demographic information, the dataset includes treatment characteristics, whether or not the child received counseling, and responses to 7 items specifically related to attitude toward medication. A copy of the survey is available from Dr. Susan dosReis upon request.
