尽管现存的文献记录了注意力缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)的成年人在工作场所遇到重大困难的风险增加,但很少有与这些障碍相关的潜在因素的文献。本研究的主要目的是在一个模拟的工作场所实验室相对于对照组,检查与ADHD相关的工作场所表现的具体缺陷。参与者是56名患有DSM-IV ADHD的未用药年轻人和63名年龄和性别匹配的对照组。参与者在工作场所模拟实验室中度过了10个小时。评估的领域包括:1)政府报告(SCANS)中记录的模拟任务,通常需要在工作场所设置(征税警惕;计划;合作;关注细节),2)观察员评级,和3)自我报告。在所有工作场所任务和工作日期间,ADHD参与者和对照组之间的ADHD症状自我报告存在统计学显著差异。任务表现被认为是在少数领域的不足,并有几个观察员的评级确定的统计上显着的差异。ADHD参与者在模拟中报告的症状包括内部躁动,不耐无聊和难以保持警惕,这些症状很重要,可能会对长期的工作表现产生不利影响。
Despite an extant literature documenting that adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are at increased risk for significant difficulties in the workplace, there is little documentation of the underlying factors associated with these impairments. The main aim of this study was to examine specific deficiencies associated with ADHD on workplace performance in a simulated workplace laboratory relative to controls. Participants were 56 non-medicated young adults with DSM-IV ADHD and 63 age and sex matched controls without ADHD. Participants spent 10 hours in a workplace simulation laboratory. Areas assessed included: 1) simulated tasks documented in a government report (SCANS) often required in workplace settings (taxing vigilance; planning; cooperation; attention to detail), 2)observer ratings, and 3)self-reports. Robust findings were found in the statistically significant differences on self-report of ADHD symptoms found between participants with ADHD and controls during all workplace tasks and periods of the workday. Task performance was found to be deficient in a small number of areas and there were few statistically significant differences identified by observer ratings. Symptoms reported by participants with ADHD in the simulation including internal restlessness, intolerance of boredom and difficulty maintaining vigilance were significant and could adversely impact workplace performance over the long-term.
