Psychiatric Status of Adolescent Cases Who Were Diagnosed As Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in Childhood
Abstract
Objective: The purpose of the study is
assessing the psychiatric morbidity of cases
who were diagnosed Attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) during their
childhood. Thirteen ADHD cases and 12 normal
subjects were included in the study. Method:
Mean age of ADHD group was 19.3 (+ 2.6) and
of control group was 20.6 (± 2.7). SCID-I
(Structured Clinical Intervievv for DSM-IV) was
applied to ali subjects in both groups. Subjects
were also assessed with Wender-Utah scale,
Beck Depression Scale, and SCL-90. Results:
Although SCL-90 and Beck Depression Scale
findings and behavioral and academic histories
of ADHD cases were not statistically different
than the control group; ADHD cases had
significantly more psychiatric diagnoses when
assessed with SCID-I. Discussion: Results
indicate that ADHD group received significantly
more psychiatric diagnoses than control group
in adolescence. These observations suggest
that psychiatric assessment with structured
intervievv is very important for the diagnosis of
additional disorders. Using only scales for
diagnosis is not a very reliable of evaluation of
comorbid conditions.
