Bruchmuller, Katrin; Margraf, Jurgen; Schneider, Silvia – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2012
Objective: Unresolved questions exist concerning diagnosis of ADHD. First, some studies suggest a potential overdiagnosis. Second, compared with the male-female ratio in the general population (3:1), many more boys receive ADHD treatment compared with girls (6-9:1). We hypothesized that this occurs because therapists do not adhere to "Diagnostic…
