http://adhdinadults.com/ Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) is often characterized by inattentiveness, impulsivity and hyperactivity. While this characterization may be at times true, its basis in public perception belies its truth. To be sure, not all persons with ADHD exhibit the same characteristics, and often times the symptoms display themselves in many different forms.
That men and women exhibit different behavioral signs of ADHD is well documented; statistics show a dramatic dichotomy between the diagnosis rates of adolescent boys and girls with ADHD. The valley between the boys’ and girls’ rate of diagnosis can largely be attributed to the expectations and gender roles of young males and females. Young males have, to a large extent, been conditioned to question authority and assert their perceived control.
