An increasing number of children who have ADHD are visiting pediatric clinics. In this study, we focused on the behavior of ADHD children in different situations.The behavior of ADHD children was evaluated with a specially designed checklist in a person-to-person situation in which the subject was face to face with the clinical psychologist at the counseling room and in a group situation in which the subject participated in an outdoor program organized by the Department of Pediatries of Enshu General Hospital.In the person-to-person context, all of the performance scores with respect to attention-deficit, impulsivity, hyperactivity and difficulty with communication were decreased after psychotherapy. This suggested the regular person-to-person therapy with medication could improve the behaviors and development of ADHD children. On the other hand, the hyperactivity score was increased in the group context because of a lot of stimulation. These findings suggested ADHD children’s behavior changes according to the situation, and that we should take care of them with this fact in mind.

Integrated lecture programs for high school students involving university teaching staff have recently become popular. Here, we report on such a program involving lectures on tumor pathology attended by 110 high school students at the Yokohama City University School of Medicine. Two weeks before the lectures at our university, the students were given a 45-minute introductory lecture by a teacher at their school. The 1-day course at our university comprised an overview lecture by the author (40 minutes), light-microscopic observation of histologic specimens of normal and tumor tissues (50 minutes), and a summary with an introduction to diagnostic pathology (20 minutes). During light-microscopic observation, medical students served as teaching assistants. The high school students were given handouts of microscopic
