Comparison of the DSM-IV combined and inattentive types of ADHD in a school-based sample of Latino/Hispanic children

Article Abstract:

An investigation is conducted to examine the construct validity and distinctiveness of the inattentive type (IT) and combined type (CT) of Attention-Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in a Latino/Hispanic sample. Findings supported the construct validity of ADHD in this culturally different sample and suggested that the CT and IT represent distinct disorders.

Co-occurrence of conduct disorder and depression in a clinic-based sample of boys with ADHD

Article Abstract:

The potential psychosocial risk factors for comorbid conduct disorder (CD) and depression in a clinic-based sample of 203 boys (aged 6-10 years) with ADHD is examined. Source-specificity is a useful consideration when describing the relation of parenting and home environment with CD and depression symptoms in boys with ADHD.
