Looking for rubric that relate to inconsistant mental focus. Case involves a child that can focus well on certain things but not others. Focus seems to be driven by subject matter not environment (time of day, people, food, location, etc).
So far - I am stuck at Mind - Concentration - difficult (with it's specifics) , Mind-Comprehension - difficult (which is under dullness - not a good fit at all), Mind - Inconsistant etc.
Since so many of you have experience with individuals diagnosed with ADD - I was hoping you may have located more appropriate rubrics. Or perhaps you might suggest remedies that I should put on my 'must read' list.
Thank you in advance.

Re: Mental Focus - Rubric help request
Hi Donna,
Unless you are saying the child 'has' ADD, then I'm wondering how unusual it
actually is ? Is it characteristic of him to such a high degree - as most boys of a
certain age seem to have this trait in spades !? Rubrics like Monomania perhaps ?
Or maybe you can work from the remedies if Refworks entries prove useful -
Distracted easily (30): 3Madia, 2lith-p., aesc., agra., am-c., androc., arg-s., bute-j.,
calc-o-t., ch-bd-b., cocc., falco-p., fic-mac., germ., haliae-lc., hydrog., irid., lac-cpr.,
lap-c-b., lav-v., nat-ar., nat-p., oro-ac., phos., plat., posit., sel., sil., stram., sulph.
Attention deficit (18): 3Aeth., 3Carc., 3Lac-eq., 2dpt, 2tub., cann-i., caps., choc.,
corn., hyos., lac-cpr., lac-del., mand., mdma, med., phos., stram., thuj.
