Objectives: To demonstrate that high IQ adults diagnosed with ADHD suffer from executive function (EF) impairments
that: a) can be identified with a combination of standardized measures and self-report data; and b) occur more commonly
in this group than in the general population. Method: 157 ADHD adults with IQ > 120 were assessed with 8 normed measures
of EF- 3 index scores from standardized tests of memory and cognitive abilities, and 5 subscales of a normed selfreport
measure of EF impairments in daily life. Results: 73% of subjects were significantly impaired on > 5 of these 8 EF
markers. On all 8 measures, incidence of these impairments was significantly greater than in the general population.
Conclusion: High IQ adults with ADHD tend to suffer EF impairments that can be assessed with these measures; incidence
of such impairments in this group is significantly higher than in the general population.
well hey r9k, turns out you're not stupid or lazy at all
>>24638273
Having poor executive function makes you lazy though.
>>24638305
not really your fault
this whole idea of "it's all your fault because your lazy" just makes you schizophrenic, because it makes you develop guilt and shame for something that you literally don't have much control over (and yeah you don't, your reward system is fucked up, not your personal moral character)
>>24638346
>>24638305
also, i don't mean literally schizophrenic, but latent schizophrenia symptoms, the "voices" that tell you that you're worthless, that shit comes from retards that think they're some sort of moral authority that tell you you're worthless for shit out of your control, then you internalize these beliefs and they show themselves during schizophrenic episodes
can someone summarize what this shit means im not going to try to understand what op said when i have porn and videogames in front of me
t. le 130+ E U P H O R I C iq neet robot

>>24638717
>>24638731

How do you know that you have ADHD?
>>24641086
go to a GP and say you've always had allot of issues with paying attention and learning and told by a friend that i should see someone about it, he will recommend what to do to get sweet pills worth tons of neetbux.
