Motivating this focus is the fact that the landscape for private-sector research is changing, and future research might well emphasize America's "new geography of innovation." Thus, university research and science parks might face, if they are not already doing so, pressure to retain current tenants and competition for future tenants. We find that only 11 of 146 research and science parks in the USA have, in the spirit of public accountability, conducted an economic impact study. One reason for the paucity of such studies is that universities are unfamiliar about how to conduct as well as how to interpret the findings from such a study. We offer an economic impact method for park administrators to follow if they proceed to document the regional economic impact of their park.

In addition to covering the similarities and differences between these two systems, this paper critically discusses continuing limitations in these approaches to clinical diagnosis. Despite these ongoing diagnostic limitations, substantial research in both Great Britain and North America exists to show that ADHD is a valid condition that is separable from yet often associated with conduct disorder and hostile-defiant behaviour. Further research will no doubt help to resolve the current problems with diagnostic criteria to yield even greater separation of the construct of ADHD from other childhood psychological disorders. Article: Within the United States and Canada, clinicians and researchers typically use the term, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), to describe individuals who display developmentally excessive levels of inattention, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity. In Europe and in many other parts of the world, individuals who display many of these same symptoms might instead receive a diagnosis of Hyperkinetic Disorder, or more likely conduct problems or Conduct Disorder. Such differences in diagnostic labelling, of course, stem from the use of different diagnostic classification systems, with the former terminology emanating from the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV; American Psychiatric Association, 1994), and the latter coming from the tenth edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10; World Health Organization, 1990). In view of the recent changes that have occurred within the DSM system, a major purpose of this paper is to outline the new criteria for establishing a diagnosis of ADHD. Following up on a previous publication (Barkley, 1990a), this paper will also compare and contrast the DSM IV criteria with those currently available from the draft version of the ICD-10 system. A critique of both systems will then ensue, followed by a discussion of the implications that these criteria have for clinical practice and research. Prior to discussing such matters, however, a brief review of the history of this disorder will be presented in order to provide a more meaningful context for appraising the current diagnostic criteria.

This monograph is the third revision of the 1987 landmark publication titled Family-Centered Care for Children with Special Health Care Needs. The revision incorporates several changes: the key elements of family-centered care are reworded for clarity; the order in which the elements are presented is changed to better illustrate their inter-relationships; new understandings about family-centered care are integrated; program examples are updated; and research findings are incorporated. The revised key elements of family-centered care are listed and described here in material excerpted from the 1994 monograph.

An introductory section reviews the development of the first edition of the monograph in 1987 and its widespread dissemination and acceptance since that time. Each of the following eight chapters then addresses one of the following elements: (1) recognition that the family is the constant in the child's life, while the service systems and support personnel within those systems fluctuate; (2) facilitation of family/proFessional collaboration at all levels of hospital, home, and community care; (3) exchange of complete and unbiased information between families and professionals in a supportive manner; (4) respect for cultural diversity within and across all families including ethnic, racial, spirituai, soci. 1, economic, educational, and geographic diversity: (5) recognition of different methods of coping and promotion of programs providing developmental, educational, emotional, environmental, and financial supports to families; (6) encouragement of family-to-family support and networking: (7) provision of hospital, home, and community service and support systems that are flexible, accessible, and comprehensive in meeting family-identified needs; and (8) appreciation of families as families, recop,nizing their wide range of strengths, concerns. This monograph represents the collaborative effort of many family members and professionals with diverse backgrounds and experiences. The heart and spirit of family-centered care in practice is truly evidenced by their valuable input and assistance, and their clear commitment to the total health and well-being of children with illnesses and physical, mental, or em. tional disabilities. These individuals have formally or informally reviewed, advised, encouraged, supported, or otherwise helped to make this a better resource for others who are also striving to incorporate into policy and practice the philosophy of family-centered care for children needing specialized health and developmental services and supports and their families. The Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has provided national vision and leadership for the family-centered care agenda since the mid-1980s. MCHB has supported this publication through a grant to the National Center for Family-Centered Care (NCFCC, #MCJ 115039) at the Association for the Care of Children's Health (ACCH). Across the years, MCHB has created many opportunities for family/ professional collaboration, which have been critically important to our understanding of familycentered care and to the writing of this publication. We are grateful to Merle McPherson, John Shwab, and Diana Denboba, in the Division of Services for Children with Special Health Care Needs. We are also grateful to William Sciarillo, Executive Director of ACCH, for his leadership in ensuring the total commitment of ACCH to the completion of this monograph, and for his own commitment to comprehensive services for children and families with a distinctive human touch the hallmark of ACCH. The revision of this monograph would not be possible without the talent, time, and effort put forth by Sue Sandmeyer. Publications Manager at ACCH. We greatly appreciate her hours and hours of input and work on both the design and the content of the monograph, and her dedication to the goal of "best practice" in children's health and developmental care. Karen Lawrence, Project Coordinator of the NCFCC, and Sandra Newcomb, Project Coordinator of the Project Assist Family Support Group, have exceeded the standards as professionals practicing family-centered care, and as friends. We are very grateful for their energy and motivation, and for all of their skillful guidance and assistance in ensuring that the content of this monograph in fact delivered the message we intended. We are also grateful to Arlene Kiely, a lay-minister, parent, and former staff member of the NCFCC, whose skills in consultation and training were valuable to this publication. The chapter exploring the fourth clement of family-centered care honoring the diversity of families was largely adapted from an unpublished manuscript contributed by David Allen Jones, President of the Institute on Cultural Dynamics and Social Change. We appreciate his time and effort on this project and his endeavor to ensure that family-centered care is a reality for all families. socioeconomic diversity of families" (National Center for Family-Centered Care, 1990). With the current 1994 revision of the monograph, the wording of this element has been refined to Family-Centered Care for Children For more information, contact Rainbow Babies and Children's

Emerging research is beginning to provide better information about mechanisms underlying individual differences in risky behavior (e.g., differences in self-regulation) and providing insight into unique vulnerabilities that occur during adolescence (e.g., increases in reward seeking). This work suggests ways in which prevention programming can be designed to be sensitive to both individual differences and developmental timing. Psychobiological models of risk also have practical implications for the manner and methods of conducting prevention and intervention work. Future work in both the etiology and prevention of risky behavior can benefit from ongoing dialogue and has the potential to result in a more sophisticated understanding of the mechanisms of change related to risky behavior.

Specifically, there is a need for healthcare professionals to understand social determinants of health (e.g., low socioeconomic status, lack of health insurance, and poor education) and how these lead to disparities in health for people of minority racial and ethnic groups. Little is known about how students are developed as health disparities researchers or how their research experiences impact their views about addressing social determinants of health as a career goal. The purpose of this paper is to describe how health and human sciences students were integrated into three minority HIV prevention and testing projects using the lifelong learning for health professionals (LLHP) principles and activities framework, which entails a focus on: (a) education, (b) community, and (c) organization in the planning, development, implementation, and evaluation of interdisciplinary research.

Compared with a simplistic unidirectional view, researchers and clinicians increasingly have conceptualized parent-child influences from a more realistic transactional pattern 14,15,62 or a systems perspective. 45 For example, developmental researchers such as Baumrind, 12 Maccoby and Martin, 42 and Schaefer 63 have consistently found that healthy child development is most likely to occur in the context of high levels of parental warmth and acceptance, consistent behavioral control, and acceptance and encouragement of individuality and psychological autonomy. Consideration of parental influence is, however, important when development is disrupted in some way.
