ADHD Review Site

Various disorders exist and one of them is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

(ADHD) that is a mental health disorder. The disorder leads or might lead to above the normal

levels of impulsive and hyperactive behaviors. Individuals suffering from this disorder also

experience troubles in focusing their attention on a certain task or even remaining still for long

moments. Similarly, as much as these disorders such as ADHD exist, various Web pages or

medical Websites are available that provide essential information concerning such as a disorder.

An example of such a Web page and the one that is selected for this discussion and the involved

disorder is the National Institute of Mental Health, (NIMH). It is among the 27 large institutes

and centers making up the National Institutes of Health. The institute was founded on 15 th April

194 and has its headquarters in Bethesda, Maryland in the United States. The parent organization

is the National Institutes of Health and its mission is transforming an understanding as well as

the treatment of the mental illnesses by offering basic and also clinical research that paves way

for prevention, recovery, and even cure. After gaining essential insight into this Web page, the

following discussion is a review of the Website by considering the criteria of reviewing that

considers currency, coverage, accuracy, objectivity, and even authority.

As far as the above criterion is concerned, the essential aspect included here entails the

modernity of the Web page. Despite having been created a long time ago, the page might be

deemed as being current because it is updated regularly. The link to the website is also current as

an individual might be directed to the website by just clicking the link to the Web page.

Therefore, the link to the web page is up to date and the page is updated regularly according to

the intentions of the Web page to be accessed by the majority of the individuals that require the

services of the webpage. As a result, the Web page might be claimed to be important since the

currency criterion has proven that the website is up to date.

Concerning the coverage criterion, the review of the website will be based on the

evaluation of the links, and whether or not they complement the theme of the document. In this

case and concerning the NIMH, it is important to argue that the links complement the theme of

the document, i.e., the website. The other thing to consider is the balance between images and

texts and whether information has been cited appropriately. Regarding the balancing of text and

images, the issue has been considered especially where the image of the NIMH director, i.e.,

Joshua A. Gordon has been provided and the titles owned and this shows that the website is full

of professionals. The information has also been correctly and appropriately cited.

Under this criterion, the distinction between the author and the Webmaster has to be

considered and this has been made on the Web page. The other issue considered under the

accuracy criterion is the provision of essential links that would aid in accessing the web page and

in this case, the link has been provided for the website and this qualifies the website to be

accurate whenever gauged under the accuracy criterion (Kapoun, 2019). The purpose of the

document as well as the reason for producing it must be examined in this criterion and it has also

been provided.

Under the objectivity aspect, the goals, or objectives that the page intends to meet have to

be described as it has been done by the website. The issue of how detailed the website tends to be

is also considered and, in this case, no individual would argue that the website is not detailed as a

variety of information has been provided, (Janet, 2017). The opinions of the author are also

important to consider under this criterion and undoubtedly, the author has provided opinions

such as how useful people would find the website to be.

One of the important considerations under this criterion is how easy a person could

access the website. In other words, it would entail the aspect of assessing the website without

paying a fee(s). As for this website, an individual can access the site by following the link

without paying a fee. The other thing considered in this criterion is whether the author and all

that are involved in the website have provided the qualifications. The author and also the

Managing Director have provided their credentials and qualifications, and these are important for

revealing to the people that the website is highly important in dealing with the concerned

disorder, i.e., ADHD

As mentioned under the introductory part, various disorders exist and the same case

applies when it comes to the Web pages that provide essential information concerning these

disorders. As an example, ADHD exists and its relevant Web page, i.e., the NIMH is available

that offer important information concerning this disorder and has an important mission that

would aid in dealing with the disorder. However, an individual would not identify the usefulness

and relevancy of the web page without carrying a review of the website by considering the fiver

criteria for the review. However, after doing the review, essential insight into the Web page will
