The late Keith Conners, a Rhodes Scholar, developed the standards for diagnosing ADHD. He also developed the tests, still the most popularly used today, for diagnosing ADHD. Here he explained to me how stimulants were found, serendipitously, to quiet restless patients at Bradley Hospital. He remarked to me before his death that he thought that one of his tests, put out by MHS, needed to be readjusted because it overpredicted ADHD. Jennifer Lish, a clinical psychologist in Massachusetts (Columbia PhD) liked the post. Her dad was Gordan Lish.
