Mixed-methods study explores teachers' perceptions and practices regarding ADHD support, indicating significant correlations with pedagogical strategies.
This research study investigates the attitudes, perceptions, and teaching practices of primary education teachers regarding the support of students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Utilizing a mixed-method approach, the study analyzes both quantitative and qualitative data from educators, focusing on the challenges they face, the instructional adaptations they implement, and the types of resources or training they identify as necessary. The findings reveal statistically significant differences and correlations among pedagogical practices, personal beliefs, and observed student behaviors, confirming the critical importance of appropriate teacher training, collaboration with specialists, and curriculum adaptation. Additionally, the results indicate that a higher level of teacher understanding of ADHD is associated with more frequent interventions and a more favorable evaluation of applied methods. The study links these outcomes to the theoretical literature on developmental disorders, educational psychology, and inclusive pedagogy, and it proposes directions for future research and institutional policy aimed at enhancing the educational support provided to students with ADHD.
