The researchers found that when children with ADHD were given psychostimulant medication, mothers were less negative and less controlling towards their children. This suggests that the medication may have improved the behavior of the children, leading to a more positive interaction with their mothers. Option A is not supported by the information given, and option C suggests that the effects of the medication may be solely due to a placebo effect, which is not supported by the research.
