Brown, Thomas E.; Reichel, Philipp C.; Quinlan, Donald M. – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2009
Objectives: To demonstrate that high IQ adults diagnosed with ADHD suffer from executive function (EF) impairments that: a) can be identified with a combination of standardized measures and self-report data; and b) occur more commonly in this group than in the general population. Method: 157 ADHD adults with IQ greater than or equal to 120 were…
