Discussion: Concentration and focus during adolescence
Provide a sample in-text citation that you plan to use in your evaluation essay you are currently writing. Use one of the head/body/tail combinations from our textbook (chapter 2). Then create a second citation for the same source, but use a different head/body/tail combination. As the week progresses, comment on your classmates’ in-text citations. Do you think they were cited correctly? Why or why not? How do different patterns create different impressions about the source?

Although Health line (2020) argued that “Experts also think that many children with the inattentive type of ADHD may not receive a proper diagnosis” (Predominantly Inattentive)
Timothy Legg a doctor of philosophy has studied different types of ADHD to help diagnosis be more consistent he explains “The APA has grouped the condition into three categories or types. These types are predominantly hyperactivity impulsive and a combination of both. (Timothy, Legg, 2020, Types of ADHD)

Re: Topic 5 DQ 3
Most children with ADHD will continue having problems with concentration and focus during adolescence and adulthood (Pediatric Psychiatrist, 2020).
There are many other ”treatments’ on the market that promise to be the answer for your child (Pediatric Psychiatrist, 2020).

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
