Parent and Child Characteristics Associated with Comorbidity Differences in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity DisorderPelletier, Julie A. 01 May 2005 (has links)
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a commonly diagnosed disorder that is associated with many negative outcomes. For many children, the disorder is comorbid with externalizing and/or internalizing problems. Understanding the correlates of comorbid problems in children with ADHD could be important for better treatment and/or prevention strategies. The purposes of this study were (a) to determine what parent-related and child-related characteristics are associated with externalizing or internalizing problems in children with ADHD, and (b) to determine if there are differences in these characteristics between a group of children with ADHD and externalizing problems, and a group of children with ADHD and externalizing and internalizing problems. Results indicated that parent anxiety, parent aggression, and child hostility were associated with internalizing problems. Child aggression was associated with externalizing problems. Results also indicated that children with ADHD and externalizing and internalizing problems had significantly more hostility than children with ADHD and externalizing problems only.

The Relationship Between Religion and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity DisorderMason, Philip B 15 December 2012 (has links)
Research shows that religious people have higher levels of self-control. Scientists also hypothesize that individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are less likely to participate in religious services which require long periods of attention and self discipline. However, little research has investigated the potential relationship between ADHD and religious participation. Using the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health), this study finds (1) mothers’ prayer frequency is marginally related to children’s ADHD symptoms and diagnosis although other religious indicators are not significantly related, (2) childhood religious involvement and affiliation are not significantly related to ADHD symptoms and diagnosis, and (3) childhood ADHD is not significantly related to adult religious involvement and affiliation.

Adhd Behavior Problems And Near- And Long-term Scholastic Achievement Differential Mediating Effects Of Verbal And Visuospatial MemorySarver, Dustin E. 01 January 2010 (has links)
The current study examined verbal and visuospatial memory abilities as potential mediators of the relationship among ADHD behavior problems and near- and long-term scholastic achievement. Scholastic achievement was measured initially and at 4-year follow-up in an ethnically diverse sample of children (N = 325). Nested composite (reading, math, language) and domain-specific reading structural equation models revealed that ADHD behavior problems exerted a negative influence on scholastic achievement measures, both initially and at follow-up. Much of this influence, however, was mediated by verbal memory’s contribution to near-term achievement, whereas visuospatial memory contributed more robustly to long-term achievement. For the domain-specific math achievement model, the collective influence of verbal and visuospatial memory fully mediated the direct influence of ADHD behavior problems on nearterm math achievement, and visuospatial memory alone contributed to both near- and long-term achievement. In all models, measured intelligence made no contribution to later achievement beyond its initial influence on early achievement. The results contribute to the understanding of the developmental trajectory of scholastic achievement, and have potential implications for developing remedial programs targeting verbal and visual memory deficits in children with ADHD behavior problems

ADHD And Stop-signal Behavioral Inhibition: Is Mean Reaction Time Contaminated By Exposure To Intermittent Stop-signals?Alderson, Robert 01 January 2008 (has links)
The current study investigates two recently identified threats to the construct validity of behavioral inhibition as a core deficit of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) based on the Stop-signal task: calculation of mean reaction time from go-trials presented adjacent to intermittent stop-trials, and non-reporting of the stop-signal delay metric. Children with ADHD (n=12) and typically developing children (TD) (n=11) were administered the standard stop-signal task and three variant stop-signal conditions. These included a No-Tone condition administered without the presentation of an auditory tone; an Ignore-Tone condition that presented a neutral (i.e., not associated with stopping) auditory tone; and a second Ignore-Tone condition that presented a neutral auditory tone after the tone had been previously paired with stopping. Children with ADHD exhibited significantly slower and more variable reaction times to go-stimuli, and slower stop-signal reaction times (SSRT) relative to TD controls. Stop-signal delay (SSD) was not significantly different between groups, and both groups' go-trial reaction times slowed following meaningful tones. Collectively, these findings corroborate recent meta-analyses and indicate that previous findings of stop-signal performance deficits in ADHD reflect slower and more variable responding to visually presented stimuli and concurrent processing of a second stimulus, rather than deficits of motor behavioral inhibition.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Self-Esteem, and Identity Among College StudentsHall, Julie 01 January 2023 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this study was to explore if Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) is related to identity in undergraduate adults, as well as their self-esteem. Also investigated was whether prior diagnosis (including early detection versus later-in-life detection) would be related to higher self-esteem and healthier identity formation. College students in large metropolitan southeastern universities enrolled in psychology classes (N = 368) took an anonymous online self-report survey battery in exchange for course credit. The screening tool for ADHD identified close to 50% of the sample as possibly having ADHD, which is much higher than any previous study has reported. Possible reasons for and implications of this surprising finding are also discussed. Those that met the screening criteria for ADHD had significantly higher levels of identity distress and unproductive ruminative identity exploration. They also had higher levels of identity exploration in depth and lower levels of identification with identity commitments. Those with previous diagnosis of ADHD reported lower levels of self-esteem than those who met the screening criteria used in this study, but had never been diagnosed, suggesting that the diagnostic label itself might be contributing to the lower levels of self-esteem.
