这项研究探讨了儿童和成人注意力缺陷/多动障碍可能存在的性别差异。结果表明，成年人的自我评价显着不同的性别。成年妇女报告的资产少，更多的问题比男性同行，但没有性别差异，在转诊的年龄，智商，神经心理学表现的指标，或父母或老师的行为评级。对女孩的推荐偏见可能是之前报道的性别差异的一个原因，所以我们根据参与者的推荐模式来解释我们的结果。有一个非显着的趋势，女孩与相对更严重的评级多动，品行障碍，或注意力不集中，被称为早于男孩。总体而言，我们的研究结果表明，在对女孩行为异常敏感的样本中，没有证据表明性别的认知或神经心理学差异，但成年女性的自我感知比成年男性相对较差。
This study examined possible gender differences in children and adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Results indicated that adult self-ratings differed significantly by gender. Adult women reported fewer assets and more problems than did male counterparts, but there was no gender difference with respect to age at referral, intelligence quotient, indicators of neuropsychological performance, or parent or teacher ratings of behavior. Referral bias against girls is a possible reason for previously reported gender differences, so we interpreted our results in light of the participants' referral patterns. There was a nonsignificant trend for girls with relatively more severe ratings of hyperactivity, conduct disorder, or inattention to be referred earlier than were boys. Overall, our results suggest no evidence of cognitive or neuropsychological differences by gender in samples that are sensitive to behavioral deviance in girls las evidenced by early referral), but adult women's self-perception is comparatively poorer than that of adult men.
