RESUMO
No presente trabalho investigamos o processo de expansão e legitimação social do diagnóstico do Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade (TDAH) no Brasil. Para tanto, analisamos publicações científicas brasileiras sobre comportamentos de desadaptação escolar, bem como um conjunto de materiais que se destina à divulgação do TDAH disponíveis no site da Associação Brasileira do Déficit de Atenção (ABDA), de forma a circunscrever o debate voltado para o estabelecimento deste conceito nosológico. Procuramos mapear o processo recente de biologização da compreensão dos comportamentos humanos no Brasil e como as diferentes concepções, quer organicistas ou não, se opõem ou se conectam na construção da entidade TDAH. A investigação desses discursos múltiplos objetivou discutir como se constitui, a partir de um modelo científico e do empenho em torná-lo hegemônico, uma conceituação nosológica para as condutas de desadaptação infantis, tendo em vista a interface que ela mobiliza entre os campos da saúde e da educação. Finalmente, articulamos a expansão do transtorno no Brasil e no mundo a aspectos sóciohistóricos mais amplos, como a crescente biologização e objetivação da compreensão dos comportamentos humanos; a cientificização da vida cotidiana...

In this work we investigated the expansion and social legitimationprocess of the AttentionDeficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Brazil.Accordingly we analyzed the Brazilian scientific publications on unadaptedschoolchildren, as well as a set of written material prepared to ADHDpopularization, available at the Internet site of the Brazilian Association ofAttention Deficit (Associação Brasileira do Déficit de Atenção), in order tocircumscribe the debate over the establishment of this nosological concept.

The investigation of those multiple discourses intended to discuss how thenosological concept of unadapted child behavior is built up, based on a scientificmodel and the commitment to make it hegemonic, keeping in mind the interface that this diagnostic marshal between the health and educational fields. Due to the inseparability between the disorder and what is produced asa problem in the school environment, we proposed that the ADHD acts as toolthat gives meaning to indiscipline and to the inattention, and mediates therelationship established among teacher, pupil and family. Besides, attributing theschool failure as related to the student body, the diagnostic allows theneutralization of some educational conflicts without questioning the schoolenvironment, the family or the social demands and norms themselves. At last, we articulated the expansion of the diagnostic in Brazil and worldwide to broader sociohistorical aspects, such as the growing biologization and objetification of human behavior understanding; the scientification ofeveryday life...
