Neurobehavioral

Neurobehavioral is the way the brain affects emotion, behavior, and learning. It is the relationship between the action of the nervous system and behavior disorders such as ADHD.
Hyperactivity is a condition of excessive muscle activity. This term is also used to describe a situation when a particular portion of the body is too active, such as when a gland produces too much of its particular hormone.

Hyperactive behavior usually refers to a group of characteristics, including constant activity, being easily distracted, impulsiveness, inability to concentrate, aggressiveness, and similar behaviors.

Typical behaviors may include fidgeting or constant moving, wandering, too much talking, and difficulty engaging in quiet activities (such as reading).

Hyperactivity presents more of a problem for schools and parents than it is for the affected child. However, many hyperactive children are unhappy or even depressed. Hyperactive behavior may make a child a target for bullying, or make it harder to connect socially. Schoolwork may be harder, and hyperactive kids are frequently disciplined for their behavior.
