A. D. D. & Handwriting Analysis:

A Special Research Project

Attention Deficit (/ Hyperactivity) Disorder
(ADD / ADHD)

Have you, or has anyone you know been diagnosed with 'ADD' / 'ADHD'?

We are currently conducting a special series of research & investigation specifically pertaining to Attention Deficit Disorder, its diagnosis & medication, and potential reportability through handwriting of affected individuals.

If you would like to contribute a sample to the study, then by all means, please contribute a basic sample to us via our standard means. Plus, if at all possible, we'd love to see as representative a sample set as possible from the following stages of treatment & diagnosis (as appropriate):

[Age & Handwriting Sample of ADD/ADHD individual at these stages:]
Prior to Diagnosis
After Diagnosis, before any medication
During period when medicated -- when on meds
During period when medicated -- when not on meds
After Medication was terminated (if applicable)
As there is some research evidence of the bio-chemical nature of the disorder, and its possibile linkage to heredity, HW Samples from other family members could be most helpful. Handwriting Samples from parents would be of special interest, if at all possible, but a sample from any other diagnosed or undiagnosed family members is welcome. Please indicate family relationship between subjects whose samples are submitted.
Confidentiality is assured: Study will neither post nor make available any identifying information on any of the study's participants.

Do you have any questions or comments about this study? We'd love to hear from you!
