" Pearson Acquires ADHD Testing Company BioBehavioral Diagnostics", Bloomington MN August 27, 2014 ADHD is the most common neurobehavioral condition in children, and symptoms persist into adulthood in approximately 60 percent of cases. It affects approximately 6.7 million children and adolescents and nearly 15 million adults in the United States. ADHD makes it difficult for a person to control behavior and may have serious consequences, including failure in school, family stress and disruption, depression, problems with relationships, substance abuse, delinquency, risk for accidental injuries and job failure. Early identification and effective treatment are extremely important. As such, ADHD is a condition that is central to Pearson’s vision to meet the educational needs across a spectrum of individuals.

Not sure about their pharma holdings, but I do know that, since purchasing CogMed a couple of years ago, they have been aggressively marketing it to schools and clinics as a treatment for working memory and attention (aka, ADHD). Despite hedgy efficacy results.
