ADHD SCREENING QUESTIONNAIRE
The Inattention (IA)subscale score tended to be higher in both ADHD sub-groups as compared to the control group (6.5 ± 2.1vs. 2.34 ± 2.3 with P < 0.001), with no significant difference between the two ADHD sub-groups. Hyperactivity Impulsivity (HI) subscale was significantly higher for the ADHD-C sub-group than in the ADHD-I sub-group, whose score was similar to that of the control group (control: 1.6 ± 2.1; ADHD-I:1.55 ± 1.0; ADHD-C: 4.5 ± 2.6, P < 0.0001).”
