Abstract
To identify the prevalence of ADHD symptoms among non-referred children, parents' ratings based on DSM-III-R criteria for ADHD were obtained for 1022 metropolitan children of ages 4 to 12. The prevalence rates of fourteen behavior items were markedly lower for boys of ages 10–12 than of ages 7–9, and for girls of ages 7–9 than of ages 4–6. 41.5% of the 7.7% subjects meeting ADHD criteria had been identified by their teachers as having problems symptomatic of ADHD, and one third had been reported by their parents as having conduct problems and emotional difficulties. A factor analysis revealed three factors: inattention; hyperactivity; and excessive verbal activities.

Teacher ratings obtained for 931 boys in regular classrooms in grades K through 8 from around North America revealed that several hallmark symptoms of ADHD had very poor predictive power, whereas combinations of symptoms from the two ADHD factors had good predictive power.

Findings show that a liberal definition of LD overidentifies LD not only in ADDH children but also in normal children.

An empirically derived cluster analysis of three factors derived from factor analyses of teacher ratings of ADD symptoms produced three distinct clusters: patients without ADD, those with both inatt attention and hyperactivity, and a group that exhibited inattention and sluggish tempo but not hyperactivity.

The absence of hyperactivity in children with ADD further exaggerated the differences in learning disability between the two groups, while that only 29 children in whom ADD was absent had been given a trial of stimulant medication does not support the presence of a major abuse of such drugs in the community.

It is suggested that perceptions of hyperactivity vary significantly across countries even if uniform rating criteria are applied, and without correction for these perceptual differences, cross-cultural prevalence rates ofHyperactive-disruptive behaviors may not be comparable.

The hypothesis that aggressive and nonaggressive ADHD children have somewhat different underlying determinants for some of their symptoms is supported and it is suggested that inattention, impulsivity, and overactivity may be mediated by partially distinct neural mechanisms.

Findings indicated strong reciprocal effects, suggesting that whereas inattentive behaviors lead to reduced achievement, reading achievement--mediated by attitudes and reading activity at home--leads to increased attentiveness in the classroom.

The data support a bidimensional conceptualization of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity, one dimension consisting of symptoms of inattention and another of Symptoms of hyperactivity-impulsivity, and suggest that a condition very similar to the DSM-III-R description of undifferentiated attention-deficit disorder also exists as a distinct entity.
