For this assignment, you are asked to focus on the diagnosis of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). ADHD is a disorder characterized by inattention (e.g., distractibility, disorganization), hyperactivity (e.g., restlessness, fidgeting) and impulsivity (e.g., quick decision-making, interrupting others). After reading the article Culture and Classification, viewing the recorded lecture for this module, and watching the video on ADHD, consider what both the universalist and relativist perspectives would be on a diagnosis such as ADHD. First, write as if you were a psychologist with a universalist point of view. Provide a few statements about the disorder that support your position. Second, write as if you were a psychologist with a relativist point of view. Provide a few statements about the disorder that support your position.
