Initial diagnoses of ADHD in adulthood have increased tremendously in recent years. Making such diagnoses accurately is challenging because ADHD is a childhood-onset disorder and because many adults have an incentive for obtaining a diagnosis (e.g., access to stimulant medication or disability accommodations). Certain elements of a forensic perspective can lead to more accurate ADHD diagnoses in adults and targeted treatment for clients who genuinely need it, and more appropriate alternative clinical responses to those who do not. This article describes the research base for integrating forensic principles into clinical assessments of adults presenting with ADHD-related concerns, and provides a scientific model for such assessments, from referral through conclusions.

成人 ADHD 评估:综合临床法医视角。

近年来,成年期 ADHD 的初步诊断显着增加。准确做出此类诊断具有挑战性,因为 ADHD 是一种儿童期发病的疾病,而且许多成年人都有获得诊断的动机(例如,获得兴奋剂药物或残疾住宿)。法医视角的某些要素可以为成人提供更准确的 ADHD 诊断,并为真正需要的客户提供针对性治疗,并为那些不需要的客户提供更合适的替代临床反应。本文描述了将法医原则整合到患有 ADHD 相关问题的成年人的临床评估中的研究基础,并为此类评估提供了一个从转诊到结论的科学模型。
