Three of the following children have been identified as having attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Which one is least likely to have ADHD?
◦ Ben's favorite times of day are recess and gym because he enjoys physical activity. It's hard for him to sit still on rainy afternoons when he hasn't had a chance to burn off some energy, but he does get his assignments done.
◦ Martin rarely stays in his seat for more than ten minutes, and his hands are always fidgeting with something. He needs frequent reminders to get back on task, and transitions are challenging for him.
◦ Eva daydreams in class a lot. She tends to stare at books without reading them, and her teacher often needs to repeat the same instructions several times.
◦ Caroline turns her head toward every sound she hears. The sound of a pencil dropping catches her attention as easily as a fire alarm. Often she is so engrossed in listening to happenings in the hall or across the room that she does not hear someone speaking directly to her.
