Summary:
This dissertation was developed within the framework of the transnational curriculum "School Counseling and Guidance" of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and the University of Cyprus, for the acquisition of a postgraduate diploma by Seretis Fotios. The purpose of the research was to investigate the knowledge, perceptions and attitudes of teachers on issues related to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
In particular, 110 primary school teachers from the municipality of Ilion participated in the survey and studied the degree of information on ADHD. The correct answer rate was 59.1% (vs. 18.7% error). The results showed that the participants in the present study appear to be more aware of ADHD's Symptomatology and Definitions and less aware of its Causes and Treatment. Teacher's knowledge was found to be influenced by age, years of service, and previous teaching experience with students with ADHD, but they were not found to be affected by teacher training, gender, or attending an ADHD seminar . Research findings suggest the need to educate teachers on general and specific issues per-taining to the particular disorder as well as the importance of their role in supporting students with ADHD in the classroom.
