Not sure if this will help anyone or not but just thought I'd share it.

Tip for people searching pubmed.

http://pubmed.gov

If you have never used PubMed before here is what I did to locate some good ADHD sources.

1. Look at the blue area on the left-hand side of the page. Half way down there is a section called PubMed Services. In this area click on the link called Clinical Queries.

2. Search by Clinical Study Category or Systematic Reviews (SR) both lead to good, credible references.

3. I did a quick search using the the Clinical Study field and limited my search by using the Category and Scope buttons below the search field to limit your search. I selected the Therapy and Narrow specific search options

3. I used a simple search string like "ADHD and Adults"

4. This returned 112 hits, which is manageable.

5. The references with the orange and green stripped icon indicate that the full text is available.

I would love to know if anyone else has any tips for locating sources.
