“…In order to maximize statistical power, ADHD symptoms were analyzed continuously in both children and adults with and without this diagnosis. This data analysis approach has been used in several previous studies (e.g., Rogers et al 2009;Semiz et al 2008;Thapar et al 2003). Furthermore, Deater-Deckard (2004) has posited that severity of symptoms, not the presence or absence of a diagnosis, predicts parenting stress and the Theule et al (in press) meta-analysis supported this.…”

Predicting Parenting Stress in Families of Children with ADHD: Parent and Contextual Factors

We examined parental ADHD symptoms and contextual (parental education, social support, marital status) predictors of parent domain parenting stress (parental distress) as a function of child ADHD symptoms in a sample of 95 parents of 8 to 12 year-old children with and without ADHD. Parents' perceptions of parental distress and social support were inversely-related. Parental ADHD symptomatology was the strongest predictor of parental distress of the variables considered. Models using teacher reports of child ADHD symptomatology and oppositionality differed from ones using parent reports, in that child oppositionality was only predictive of parental distress in the parent-report model. A post-hoc analysis showed that child factors did not predict parental distress over and above parent ADHD symptoms and contextual factors. These results suggest that parental ADHD symptomatology and parenting stress reduction should be considered in development of interventions for families of children with ADHD.

“…Screening delinquent adolescents and young prisoners for symptoms of ADHD revealed prevalence rates up to 70% (Vermeiren et al 2000;Rösler et al 2004;Semiz et al 2008). Interestingly, a sample of juvenile inpatients and a sample of detained adolescents did not differ in regard to the prevalence rate of ADHD (Sevecke et al 2008).…”

With the present review, we intend to highlight the importance of considering the age- and development-dependent occurrence of comorbidity in ADHD and to outline distinct trajectories of symptom progression with possible impact on course and outcome of ADHD. The review will focus on introducing the concepts of "developmental epidemiology" and "developmental comorbidity". Psychiatric and non-psychiatric age-dependent comorbidity can be seen in the majority of children, adolescents and adults with ADHD, resulting in a severe impairment of everyday life with considerable functional and psychosocial problems. Concerning the temporal order of occurrence, psychiatric conditions may be present before the appearance of first definite ADHD symptoms ("pre-comorbidity", such as temperament factors, sleep disturbance, autism spectrum disorders and atopic eczema). They may coincide with the time when ADHD symptoms reach a clinically significant level ("simultaneous comorbidity": enuresis, encopresis, developmental dyslexia). The majority of comorbidity, however, appears after the onset of ADHD in the course of disease ("post-comorbidity": tic disorder, depression and suicidality, anxiety disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, conduct and substance use disorders, obesity and personality disorders). The aetio-pathophysiology of ADHD and its comorbid disorders and also the nature of comorbidity itself being highly heterogeneous, we additionally discuss possible models of comorbidity. In the future, longitudinal data on distinct patterns of symptom and comorbidity progression would help to refine disease classification systems, strengthen the power of future genetic studies and finally allow for more specific treatment strategies.

“…25 But what is the value in introducing a previously unsought diagnosis into the outpatient clinic? The answer lies in the fact that ADHD has relatively effective treatment programmes, and so may 26 Since the features attributable to the ADHD are potentially treatable, recognising such a comorbidity opens an avenue of intervention that may prove helpful to the patient. 27 Also, current theories about the nature of the difficulties experienced by adults with ADHD highlight problems with working memory and executive functioning.…”
