Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a learning difference in language processing that typically begins in childhood and can persist into adulthood. It is characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that are inconsistent with the individual’s age and developmental level.

Core Features of ADHD

ADHD symptoms are categorized into three main groups:

  • Inattention: Difficulty paying attention to details, problems sustaining attention, trouble following instructions, organizational difficulties, forgetfulness, and being easily distracted.

  • Hyperactivity: Inability to stay still, constant movement, running or climbing in inappropriate situations, excessive talking, and difficulty engaging in quiet activities.

  • Impulsivity: Difficulty waiting for one’s turn, interrupting others, answering questions before they are fully asked, and acting without considering consequences.

Subtypes of ADHD

ADHD is classified into three subtypes:

  1. Predominantly Inattentive Type

  2. Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Type

  3. Combined Type (both inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms)
