“…This was followed by approximately 30-min of delivery preparation and simulated delivery on a high-fidelity driving simulator. Following the completion of the final delivery and a return to the pizza restaurant, the participant completed some final ratings and was debriefed (see Figure 2 and Fabiano et al, 2018 for more details regarding the LABOR analogue workplace.) The LABOR analogue workplace setting and procedures were identical for both visits.…”

“…The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board and registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03446885). Upon enrollment into the study, participants were scheduled for two, 3-hr visits to the Laboratory Assessment of Behavior in Occupational Roles (LABOR; Fabiano et al, 2018). The study utilized a within-subjects crossover design with two conditions: (a) single dose of placebo (micronized methylcellulose powder); and (b) a single dose of 40 mg lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (Vyvanse Shire Pharmaceuticals).…”

“…Indeed, recent reports indicate that food preparation and delivery are the most common job following high school for students, such as those with ADHD, who have functional impairments (Newman et al, 2011). Recent research (Fabiano et al, 2018) has illustrated that relative to individuals without ADHD, those with ADHD may exhibit impairment in some aspects of entry level job functioning (e.g., interviewing), but not in other areas (e.g., production tasks on the first day of simulated work). It is possible that medication effects may vary depending on the occupational setting, demands, and role.…”

There has been a lack of research on the third area of impairment noted in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition-"occupational functioning." It is important to understand the impact of common treatments for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in occupational settings. Twenty individuals with ADHD between ages 16 and 25 participated in a double-blind, placebo controlled evaluation of 40 mg lisdexamfetamine dimesylate in a setting designed to approximate a restaurant workplace with associated, simulated food delivery. Outcome measures included ratings of performance, as well as behavioral productivity. Results indicated that participants completed more workplace tasks when on medication, relative to placebo. Ratings of job application quality, job interview performance, and delivery outcomes were not significantly different on medication versus placebo. These results suggest positive effects of medication in a workplace environment, but also a need for study of additional interventions to support workplace-related behavior and functioning.

“…Using this information, the Life360 application was used to determine success with meeting expectations for morning routine (e.g., arriving on time for school/work). Using an idiographic list of responsibilities for work/school/ home, performance toward goal attainment was monitored, as has been previously done in related studies in the natural and laboratory setting (Fabiano et al, 2010(Fabiano et al, , 2018.…”

As individuals with ADHD move to young adulthood, the morning and evening times become of increased importance. Sixty individuals were enrolled in a 14-day study (30 with ADHD and 30 did not have ADHD). Participants provided self-reports of ADHD symptoms and impairment using ecological momentary assessments administered each morning and each evening. Participants also identified a collateral who could provide daily ratings of the participant during the same time. Driving data were also passively collected. Results indicated differences in self and collateral ratings of ADHD symptoms and impairment, with greater symptom endorsement and reports of impairment for the individuals with ADHD. Self-report indicated greater endorsement in the evening, relative to the morning, for individuals with ADHD. Collateral report did not interact with time of day. Passive evaluation of driving performance was not significantly different. Results indicate young adult ADHD symptoms and impairment can be reliably assessed in the morning/evening. Public Health Significance Evidence of ADHD symptoms and impairments were documented in the morning and evening hours for individuals diagnosed with ADHD. These results illustrate additional areas in need of attention in the refinement of treatments for adults with ADHD.

“…Participants consisted of young adults who also participated in a laboratory study of work behaviors and ADHD (Fabiano, Hulme, et al, 2018). Recruitment of participants occurred through use of bulletin postings on university and community college campuses in Western New York, radio advertisements, referrals from local physician offices, and social media advertisements.…”

Objective:Interpersonal functioning is a core area of impairment for young adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), yet the assessment of their interpersonal problems has not been approached using a comprehensive model of interpersonal behaviors. Method: Interpersonal problems of young adults with ADHD (n = 24) were compared to non-ADHD peers (n = 26) by self- and collateral-report using the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems-Circumplex-Item Response Theory (IIP-C-IRT). Results: Both self- and collateral-reports yielded significantly higher scores across interpersonal problem domains, except for self-reported Hostile-Dominant (HD) interpersonal problems. Discrepancy scores between self- and collateral-report supported larger differences in the ADHD versus non-ADHD groups for HD problems. Large correlations between collateral-reported family relationship impairments and HD problems were found only for the ADHD group. Conclusion: Young adults with ADHD have higher levels of interpersonal problems relative to their non-ADHD peers, but also appear to underreport HD interpersonal problems relative to non-ADHD peers, suggesting the presence of a bias.
