چکیده
ADHD is the most common behavioral disorder in children, manifesting as a cluster of abnormalities including attention deficit/inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity, all of which impair the child's ability to function. Autism, on the other hand, is characterized by dysfunction in social interaction and communication and is associated with restrictive, repetitive, and stereotypic behaviors. The exact cause of these disorders has not been clearly established; however, ongoing research suggests that biological and/or environmental factors may be associated with their onset.
