  • Children with ADHD require specific and frequent feedback and/or reinforcement immediately following the demonstration of desired behaviors. When students are learning new behaviors, it is generally important to reinforce close approximations first as a way to shape behavior. Once a behavior is established, the frequency of reinforcement can be gradually decreased. Students with ADHD tend to quickly lose interest with repetition, so a variety of easy-to-implement reinforcers should be considered.
