The parent of a 4-year-old says, My child moves constantly. I try to get him interested in toys, but he is easily distracted. He talks all the time and is awake every morning before I am.
 
  I enrolled him in preschool, but the teacher could not handle him.. The child's problem meets criteria for: a. attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
  b. pervasive developmental disorder.
  c. posttraumatic stress disorder.
  d. oppositional defiant disorder.

A
Excessive motion, distractibility, and excessive talkativeness characterize attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The behaviors presented in the scenario do not support the distracters. Developmental delays would be seen if pervasive developmental disorder were present. Oppositional defiant disorder would include serious violations of the rights of others.
