Overview
The project analysed existing research to highlight unique cultural, social, and environmental factors influencing the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD in these areas. By identifying gaps in current knowledge, the project helped lay the groundwork for future research initiatives. The intern conducted systematic literature searches, performed thematic analyses, and produced a detailed report summarising findings and recommending directions for future study.
This project provided a valuable opportunity for the intern to develop research skills while contributing to an important and underexplored area of inquiry.
This internship project, aimed to compile an extensive literature review on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with a focus on the Australasian and Pacific regions.
