先前的研究表明，注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的患病率在监狱囚犯和具有精神病特征的法医患者中升高。然而，目前尚不清楚ADHD和精神病评分是否在成年非监禁样本中也相关。此外，还没有研究这种相关性是否是由于精神病的特定方面。我们评估了30名成人ADHD患者和41名健康参与者使用精神病人格量表修订版（PPI-R）的精神病。与健康男性和女性参与者相比，男性ADHD患者在归咎于外部化、叛逆性不一致和无忧无虑的非计划性分量表上得分更高。与性别无关，ADHD患者在应激免疫力和冷血方面的得分低于健康参与者。这些数据说明了先前记录的ADHD和精神病之间的相关性，并表明只有精神病的行为特征在ADHD中受到影响，而情感特征则没有。(C)2008爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Previous Studies have shown that the prevalence of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is elevated in prison inmates and in forensic patients with psychopathic traits. However, it is not clear whether ADHD and psychopathy scores also correlate in adult non-incarcerated samples. Moreover, it has not been examined if this correlation is due to specific facets of psychopathy. We assessed psychopathy in 30 adult ADHD patients and in 41 healthy participants using the psychopathic personality inventory revised (PPI-R). Male ADHD patients had higher scores compared to healthy male and female participants on the subscales blame externalization, rebellious nonconformity, and carefree nonplanfulness. Irrespective of gender, ADHD patients had lower scores compared to healthy participants oil stress immunity and coldheartedness. These data specify the previously documented correlation between ADHD and psychopathy, and suggest that only the behavioral features of psychopathy are affected in ADHD whereas, the emotional features are not.
