Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Although attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been viewed in the past as a mental disorder in childhood, in recent years, diagnoses in adult patients have significantly increased. The high level of comorbid psychiatric disorders and symptom overlap complicate the differential diagnosis of ADHD in adults. A better understanding of ADHD and making it easier to diagnose it accurately can improve overall disease management and reduce its negative effects.
This special issue of Brain Sciences aims to present the newest research in the field of adult ADHD including advances in diagnostic and treatment procedures as well as in health services research. Authors are invited to submit cutting-edge research and reviews that address a broad range of topics relating to adult ADHD including epidemiology, evidence-based treatment, prediction of ADHD-specific treatment, different diagnostic methods (e.g. EEG, neuroimaging) with a high translational impact to clinical care.
