Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

ADHD involves persistent inattention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that appears before age twelve and impairs functioning in more than one setting.

Show

Difficulty sustaining attention appears at school and at home rather than in one demanding class.

Watch for

The multi-setting requirement is what separates the diagnosis from a difficult environment.
